For additional context, the dialog reads:
> "App" Not Opened <br> Apple could not verify "App" is free of malware that may harm your Mac or compromise your privacy. [ Done ]
The upper right of the dialog has a ( ? ) button that opens https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/apple-cant-check-app-for-malicious-software-mchleab3a043/15.0/mac/15.2 https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/apple-cant-check-ap... which says:
> However, if you choose, you can still open an app that isn’t allowed to open by manually overriding Privacy & Security settings.
There's a link to the settings, under which you have to scroll down and find a second copy of the above message and then click "Open Anyway", with then gives you a third warning:
> Open "App"? <br> Apple is not able to verify that it is free from malware that could harm your Mac or compromise your privacy. Don’t open this unless you are certain it is from a trustworthy source. [ Done ] [ Open Anyway ]
Continuing on requires authentication, and the prompt offers a fourth warning: "You are attempting to open an app that may harm your Mac or compromise your privacy."
