Major unresolved issues with or opposition to this specification: adds a fingerprinting vector
Additional context on why this isn't implemented in WebKit yet found in WebKit Position #145 and CSS #8651 (quoting from the latter):
Note on Fingerprinting
[ Several proposed media features, including this one] are subject to changes based on the outcome of https://github.com/WebKit/standards-positions/issues/145 and other related privacy issues. We debated not proposing https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/8651 until after privacy issues with @media/matchMedia() had been resolved, but decided to propose it here anyway to further the discussion.
Hi all,
We reviewed this during a breakout today.
We're happy to see this moving forward, so we will close this. As part of the review we also looked at the fingerprinting concerns raised by WebKit. Our opinion is that the user benefit outweighs the privacy concern. That said, exploring ways to mitigate this more generally without negatively impacting user experience, especially of users with accessibility needs, would be welcome.
Thank you for flying TAG!
