You shouldn't need to ask permission to have privacy. The very idea is offensive. So of course that's what Facebook is going to spend millions pursuing in court.

Modern Windows systems will tell you this even when you're logged in as the administrator account. It's not enough to just be logged in as an administrator, you have to "run as administrator" too, because system designers would rather build systems that second guess the user than to teach the user how to follow the principle of least privilege.

That's a nope from me, dawg.
I think we can all agree there's absolutely no reason a calculator would need access to manage phone calls. Either a legitimate app developer made a mistake in defining what permissions their app would require, or a malicious app developer made a mistake trying to hide this kind of functionality in a calculator. Which ever one it is, somebody fucked up.

I'm sure there's a perfectly logical explanation for that authorization prompt (maybe it's a 3rd party calendar app that wants access to the built-in calendar?), but that doesn't change the fact that the way it's presented is quite confusing to regular people. It almost makes me wonder if this could be exploited by malware somehow.
