Surely an app can only do that if it requests escalated privileges. By default, I would expect it to have the same filesystem permissions as the user that launches it.
- danieldk 10y agoThe default permissions of the (typical Mac home) user are: read access to most of the filesystem, write access to the full home directory, /Applications, and some other locations.
- oneeyedpigeon 10y agoSo that's not "full access to my filesystem" by any means. Maybe there could be a bit more nuance, but I don't think this is an unsolvable problem.
