They are willing to make privacy a choice that a user can "give up" via an OS prompt. This would be no different.
>With freer desktop systems, you have the same second party threats, but also third party threats as well.
Not quite. It's an option to use a third party app store/repo.
> People don't want to have to evaluate their threat model every time they want to try something out - and we entrust a lot more to our phones than our laptops.
People adapt. Nothing stays the same and never has. We don't need to underestimate our fellow users. I remember when my mom was unwilling to use the touchscreen on a smartphone because she would inadvertently click on some button or like some random picture on FB because she didn't know tapping was an action, etc. She's a champ now.
