I've thought about the UX issue, and I believe a big problem is they've overloaded the existing Privacy tab. It worked before only because it didn't do a whole lot. Now that it's essentially an integral part of the OS experience, it really needed to be broken out into its own dedicated preferences pane like Notifications. Look at the Notifications pane and how it's grouped by application, with many options to the right. It offers far more information and control, and has visual indicators. That is what the privacy UI should have been like. Current solution is half baked and no one can argue otherwise.
