Unexplained permission request on load #12

When I load Margin.at, I see a permission request to access other apps and services.

Why is this being requested? What is it for?

Generally I prefer that permissions request be made with some kind of context or information. This just pops up every time I click the site. I don't want to say block, because maybe there is something neat and cool here. But I don't want to say allow, because that sounds like a very broad permission to give.

I feel like there should be a better on-ramp/funnel to whatever is happening here, before permission is requested.

Hey, I don't get this, is it on the extension or our web app?

This is on the web page. Uhhh, was.... it's not happening now.

Apologies, that might have been me, somehow, some other extension. I hadn't seen it before on other sites & was reproducing every time. But it's not reproducing now. Closing. Thank you for the amazing app/service/tools. Apologies again.
