The APIs coming with a security or privacy risk are always gated by a permission prompt on the web (contrary to platform-specific apps). Safari has gone even further by only allowing some of them (e.g. Push notifications) for installed web apps.

These APIs are also much more restricted than their proprietary-ecosystem equivalent.

Overall, web apps having access to these features in Chrome are an order of magnitude safer than platform-specific apps.
