#36740 — Remove Insecure Usage of DeviceOrientationEvent

Chrome here

<https://www.chromestatus.com/feature/5468407470227456>

says will soon start restricting the DeviceOrientationEvent API in a 
non-secure browsing context. I don't fully understand what they mean.

- Are they referring just to "older" window.orientation or does it 
include window.screen.orientation (or to something else)?

- Will they work with https/tls (if that's what they mean by a secure 
browsing context)?

Yes, that is what they mean.

Previously, the Geolocation API stopped working on Web sites that can only 
be accessed with “http://”.
