@leeloo@c.im service workers are pretty useful? i think one of the main uses is making webapps work offline, which is pretty nice sometimes

@rebane2001@infosec.exchange What does offline and service workers have to do with each other? When I turned my mobile game into a web app, I didn't have any need for service workers. Also, if they were limited to web apps, I might not have as big a problem with them. All I've seen them used for, and what all documentation I've seen has all been about tracking users when they don't have your website open, running code in the background (i.e. bitcoin miners) and generating spam "notifications".
