Since I’ve seen this asked elsewhere: There is a legitimate usage for these kinds of apps on some devices. Armed services recruiters tend to use various social media apps to communicate with people they are trying to recruit.
Is that not fair?
Doesn't matter, they have it on their personal phone. App security is so bad that you pretty much need to virtualize the phone and feed it fake sensor data. The whole idea of unrestricted network access is stupid.
Yeah, this is really bizarre to me. I was trying to check on volume levels through walls in my apartment, so I wanted to find some random decibel measuring app and lock it down so I don't have to worry too much about trusting it. But somehow Apple's permission model, which provides a whole pile of privilege switches including mobile data, has no way to completely revoke Internet privileges for an app.
Tiktok should be kicked out from our country. Chinese government ban everything(google, facebook, twitter, instgram, ...) of our country, why their company can make money in our country?
Because the U.S. tends toward having a free market?

> The whole idea of unrestricted network access is stupid. I've been coming around to a similar idea. I'd like a setup something like this for my desktop: 1. Some devices representing network connections. One or more are "real"; others may be VPNs. 2. Per-application settings governing which network devices, if any, the application may use. Default to none. For example, the common way to use a VPN is like this: 1. St…

Security researchers have a legitimate use of computer viruses. Behavioural analysis or whatever else. Does your grandma have the same legitimate use case?

I am genuinely curious here, when one player has a free market and the other does not, how do you think that will work out? Do you believe that America can remain dominant while its companies get 85% access to the world population and Chinese companies get 100% access? I honestly don't understand this attitude, yes free markets are great as long as your counter parties are free market economies also, but China has be…
