WorkletSharedStorage: remainingBudget() method

View on MDN ↗

The remainingBudget() method of the WorkletSharedStorage interface returns the remaining navigation budget for the current origin.

The navigation budget is the number of entropy bits permitted inside a <fencedframe> due to the selectURL() calls per origin every 24 hours. This is not the same as the number of navigations; rather, it is based on the number of potential navigations in each call. Each time a selectURL() navigation occurs, the corresponding origin’s budget decreases by the logarithm (base 2) of the number of URL choices.

Navigation budget is a mechanism designed to limit the rate of leakage of cross-site data to the destination pages navigated to in fenced frames.
