No thanks! ๐ Is there any way we could make a standard where unknown servers trying to run apps from google locally on my devices could be auto blocked? I'd love a standard like that.
"Hey we removed Google photos since they turned on the camera without your consent. We did that remotely! While you were out "
That WiFi, I would like.
How can an app turn on the camera without your consent?
Duct tape fell off
I mean, you have to explicitly give permission before apps can access the camera.
Can't work for 3-letter agencies with that attitude
