"Please try again. Bump works better if you enable location on your browser."

Seems like bump works better without enabling location, maybe because I prefer it to fail rather than to spy on me. Talk about not failing gracefully.

Bump actually does need the location, because it's important to filtering all the requests they get. It could certainly be abused, but unlike most other apps that ask your location bump actually needs it.
