How so? There seems a fairly inherent tension between having things just work by default and hiding surface area for fingerprinting behind permissions pop ups. For example say you go to a maps website, how do you decide whether to share the users location with the website? Or enable webGL functionality to render some fancy layout on the screen? As a user having to enable all that stuff per-website is annoying.

Maybe there's some other way Im missing?
