Good apps don’t request ‘risky’ permissions, right?
Those seemingly insignificant acceptances could result in a compromise of your personal or corporate data. While it only seemed like a few taps of ‘okay,’ you may have just given away pivotal permissions. But hold on a minute, what was involved in that process again? What did you do in between wanting and getting that app? Usually this all takes place only for you to find out that new app isn’t as life-altering as you thought it would be. The one you so desperately thought you needed 5 minutes ago.
The process has been streamlined to include just a few painless taps, and voila, you have access to that spanking new functionality. With a bewildering array of ways to customize our phones, we purchase and download apps (giving them endless permissions) just as often and as easily as we buy coffees.
