Browsers are adding a feature to keep your computer awake which would violate our Active Directory group policy to automatically lock after xx minutes. Is there a way to prevent this, probably some group policy or through an automated script etc. for all users in the company ?

Test site: https://mdn.github.io/dom-examples/screen-wake-lock-api/

Code example: https://github.com/mdn/dom-examples/tree/main/screen-wake-lock-api

API information: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WakeLock

After some investigation I found that below code can be used for release , I'm not a developer and no idea on how this can be used. Let me know if you have any suggestions.
