Wondering what people are thinking about this and why the internet is so quiet about it. I am not happy. Today it decided I couldn’t use the camera without giving it extensive permissions and agreeing to it. Not cool.

    WDYM?

    My camera app (Fairphone) asked me for:

    • Location. Makes sense, I set it to record where each picture was taken, can hardly do that if it doesn’t know the location.
    • Microphone. Yeah, I wanna record sound in my videos.
    • Camera. Duh.
    • Files permission. I like my pictures and videos to be actually saved, so this makes sense.

    What permissions in addition to these pretty obvious ones does yours want?
