There’s one complaint I agree about, if it is justified: - when migrating to a new machine, permissions granted should be migrated, too (I haven’t verified and doubt it somewhat, but the article claims that doesn’t happen, saying “Every time I opened an app on my Mac after […] migrating or installing a major OS update, I was barraged with security warnings.”) There also is one I have mixed feelings about: - “Why am I asked to approve three or four items in sequence instead of being given some sort of simple window indicating all the permissions that are being requested, allowing me to approve or disapprove individually or all at once?” AFAIK, Apple’s answer is “because applications should only ask for them when they need it, not at initial run”, but if many applications start requesting them at startup, is it in the best interest of users to ignore that? I also think it has to be easy to get answers to both “which permissions did I give Foo.app?” and “which applications can have permission to do bar”? Both take way too many mouse clicks currently. I know it would look daunting to show that entire thing as a matrix, but I think it would be a major step forward for power users. In addition to those questions, it would make it easier to compare permissions between similar applications (e.g. comparing permissions given to Chrome vs those given to Firefox)
