> I get Apple wants to make people feel their in control of their privacy, but literally every app I use for work prompts me for every permission imaginable. i would guess this has the side-effect of making devs think hard about what really needs access or not, and tightening up where data is stored (say in the app container, not copying files willy nilly over the hd, using entitlements etc) > Oh the command you’re running in Terminal, it wants permissions to your Downloads folder, is that ok?” ::click yes:: “Guess what? That same command you’re running in Terminal now wants to access you Library folder. Is That cool?” ::click yes:: “hey it’s me again, that Terminal command. It now wants to access your Documents folder. Is that cool?” yes, that is annoying, but i’m pretty sure that only happens the first time it tries to access those folders... is that correct? personally, i think that’s good that it checks those, because some scripts can do damage to your data (say. by accident), and you might want to know if it’s trying to say, read your keychain or not
