I'd love to see this generalized to a toolkit in mobile and desktop/server operating systems. A year or two ago, I suggested calling something like it a "hellban" add-on, because my main use for it would be to improve the UX for software I can't really avoid by putting that software in an invisible cage. It would basically be a "swords into plowshares" version of a rootkit.
One could implement the same effects using Frida, but I imagined something more like a browser add-on repository, where users could submit modules for specific software/apps, or that would gatekeep device/OS-level functionality, instead of everyone having to create custom rules in a lower-level general-purpose toolkit like Frida.
There are lots of possibilities in this area for taking back some control of what's happening on one's devices by feeding procedurally-/ML-generated data when software tries to query sensors, GPS, camera/mic, etc. It would also often be useful for software testing, to make certain test cases more practical and reproducible by looping through recorded data.
