Well sure, how do you know if you agree to something if you don't read it?
By clicking agree you are also acknowledging that Apple may sew your mouth to the butthole of another iTunes user. Apple and its subsidiaries may also, if necessary, sew yet another person's mouth onto your butthole making you a being that shares one gastral tract.
Fandroids will do anything to get something for free, and this only further proves that.
An Android app could ask for permission to rape your girlfriend, and most Fandroids will be clicking on "I agree", faster than they can spell "i am ignorant and i love malware".
Jay-z is a hypocritical douche, but that's besides the point. The point here, as always, is that Android is truly the operating system for the low class, the ignorant and those who love getting raped.
I also don't believe that many Fandroids have much of value to protect in the first place. And lastly, i also believe that Fandroids are getting exactly what they deserve. If i were going to make an app or have a promotion exclusively for Fandroids, I would be raping them also, because that seems to be the standard operating procedure for that OS.
You're absolutely right: If after being presented with the permissions the app is requesting and you decide to install it, you have the freedom to never again look at the app's settings to see that same list presented there.
As a side note, ever notice that OS X doesn't provide a list of app permissions at all?
Yeah I get why locations are not included but contacts and stuff aren't there, I'm sure it's not much harder to find than androids however!
I picked 3 apps at random and took a screenshot of the full permission screens that are presented before installing. These are nothing like an EULA that you're presented when installing a program on a desktop computer.
The problem about mentioning a long story of what the app will require access to before installation in the EULA style ends up in most users just briskly scrolling and continuing.
Hence although the app throws some technical jargons which I doubt most users would even have the patience to read in the first place , it's not effective a way of doing.
With iOS there is no such hassles because your prompted with a one line were the user hits accept to reject. It's that easy and makes more sense to the user.
It looks like Android is an OS made for the hacker / techie community that will actually sit and read each line of permission and figure out from that what the app could do. Lame !

LMAO! Riiight, that's why the number 1 Top Paid app on the App Store is free on Android for the EXACT SAME APP!

Yeah, Android should make it easier. I used an app once that would notify me whenever an app requested to access certain permission. But what would end up happening was it notified me for every decision I made. It was just annoying.
I think a good implementation would be somewhere in between what XPrivacy does and what iOS does.
. . .The open source community used to care before Google came in and dictated that open source was now going to be all about harvesting the "community" for ads. . . .
This is an important observation, especially stated this way. Google/Android has not only perverted the meaning of "open," they've shamelessly co-opted what was an intentional, somewhat utopian-minded community. Yes, they may have been too easily fooled, and their Apple-phobia too easily exploited, but still, the hypocrisy of the exploiter reeks.

This is a brilliant marketing tactic that will shape things to come. Imagine movies, books and shows being offered for free in exchange for a peek under your skirt? Most would say, sure why not?
So how do you limit the data to which Siri has access (contacts, etc.) without totally disabling Siri?
When it was a third party app (before Apple acquired SRI) it was limited in the same way as all other third party apps. When it was integrated into the operating system, it received the same privileges as any other part of the OS.

Wow........just...wow.
Notice there mostly same and have obvious things on the lists.
What other thing is this Samsung app good for?
If nothing; Apple and probably Samsung have better ways of doing this.
A hacker would probably enjoy getting info off them from apps like this, imagine!

And why iOS users actually pay for an app that Changes Wallpapers!
You're probably someone that buys an Aston Martin thinking you're top dawg without realizing it's a Toyota with an Aston Martin brand.

You totally misunderstand.
There's nothing wrong with free apps. I have a bunch of free apps for my iOS devices, along with a whole bunch of paid apps too.
The point is that any app that is going to rape you and totally violate your privacy is not acceptable, regardless if it's free or not.

Wow - looks like the paid samsung trolls are out in force. Helping to pay for your education are they?
Any offers?
So you don't want any apps to use your Location data at all? You may not use Map but people use it.
WTH? If I have to live with THOSE everyday. You bunches are very tolerant. LOL.
This is just getting better and better.

Just root your device to decline. It solves everything.

Ummm, because Siri is part of the phone perhaps? That would be like requiring the headphone jack to ask permission to access your music.
