re: #160 A Man for all Seasons
For the same reason when I log into my monster box running Windows 7 that I don’t want Microsoft shadowing me and my life on the Net. Technology should provide more privacy not less.
Some new updates for the built-in apps for my smartphone are requesting new permissions, such as:
* modify incoming/outgoing text messages
* create and delete accounts on my phone
* initiate calls from my phone
* completely control all wireless fns
* prevent sleep mode
* erase external SD storage
and some have no option for declining. I can only refuse to click accept.
