Background Sync #7

Open pes10k opened 5 years ago

https://wicg.github.io/BackgroundSync/spec/

Allows websites to perform network communication, at an unspecified time after the page has been closed. There is no way for the user to control these connections (e.g. closing the page won't stop them). Its very difficult to think of ways this is needed for the vast majority of pages (any pages).

We already disable. We should oppose too
