It could potentially be rolled out to MacOS and Windows as well.
This is just my opinion and what I've always done but I'd keep 'em separated. By weird coincidence I've been following some PCI standards for my home gear before the PCI standard existed. Linux for daily driver. A throw-away Windows machine for watching streaming videos that come with my Amazon Prime and to make the governments and their corporate 3rd party buddies happy that they can see some things I do. Another Linux machine for protecting financial data. Another Linux machine for managing devices. All except Windows are configured to be in a hostile network. I leave the Windows machine leaking like it is expected to be.
What would you do then?
If something required an app to be installed I would not use it. If something ever requires WEI [1] I would not use it. If a video game requires some anti-cheat daemon running with higher privs I get a refund and so on. Given the internet is entirely optional for me and everyone else too there is no way I could be required to install something.
My cell phone is used for Texting neighbors, family and voice. It will soon be launched from a skeet launcher and replaced with a IP68 tough dumb phone that will be powered off most of the time. I do not trust centralized services for sensitive chat even if one of their founders used to be kindof cool. This stodgy cranky ol' troglodyte will use self hosted IRCD, SSH chat, uMurmur, open source tinc vpn meshes. They are higher friction and I love it. It keeps people with leaky pipes off my stuff. Maybe AI can help me make a song, "Crank up the friction!"
