I can't believe that anyone still thinks a popup permission modal offers any type of security. Windows UAC has shown quite definitively that users will always click through any modal in their way without thought or comprehension.

Besides that, approximately zero laypersons will have even the slightest clue what this permission means, the risks involved, or why they might want to prevent it. All they know is that the website they want is not working, and the website tells them to enable this or that permission. They will all blindly enable it every single time.
