Not so sure about that. The truth is most users cannot be trusted to make good informed security decisions for themselves. As technical people we are instinctively infuriated when we aren't given a choice but for most users that's the best option. That's why the iPhone has a much smaller history of apps (and their installed base) that steal user data than Android's. Because too many users see some shiny exciting app description and click OK when the system asks them "are you sure to install this app? it's going to read your contacts, access storage, make phone calls and send SMS, etc".
