Yeah, it’s amusing that the author simultaneously claims that (a) it’s a “core OS capability”; (b) it’s a developer debugging capability gated behind so many hoops that it can’t be abused (which is of course nonsense because even though each connection needs to be approved, the app allegedly only clearing other apps’ cache could be doing any number of evil things after the approval). These are incompatible claims.
You can fundamentally disagree with the Android security and isolation model, but if you were okay with it before this update, then the arguments presented are just an incoherent mess.
