I've explained my position about this issue here: https://github.com/w3c/ambient-light/issues/23#issuecomment-295726399 And in particular: > For ALS, I agree we don't seem to have use cases that require anything beyond the granularity...

So you have three different cases here: 1. **Reducing accuracy and/or polling frequency reduces threats without impeding use cases.** In this case, there's no reason to offer permission two states,...

Yes. I completely agree. I'm hoping to open-up new cases like those in the future. Not sure what the mechanism will precisely be, though, as there's no guarantee that apps...

Absolutely. You're looking more at geofencing than geolocation.

As mentioned before, I think we need to do a bit more research in use cases, requirements and how similar cases are handled across the platform before we write down...
