HTML 5 Geolocation doesn't work in Chromium

Reported by uraba...@gmail.com, Jul 10 
UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/69.0.3482.0 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Go to some site that check your Geolocation: https://www.w3schools.com/htmL/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml5_geolocation  or https://html5demos.com/geo/
2. Allow Geolocation in browser  (for the first site-> click "Try it") 

What is the expected behavior?
Geolocation works (returns coordinates) 

What went wrong?
Geolocation doesn't work in Chromium (site doesn't return coordinates)

Did this work before? No 

Chrome version: 69.0.3482.0  Channel: n/a
OS Version: 10.0
Flash Version: 

I tried versions 49-69, and it has never worked

The geolocation API won't work in desktop Chromium without the API keys necessary to use the geolocation service provided by Google which allows IP-based and WiFi-scanning-based location mapping.
