When an app asks for permissions, the OS should not only let you answer yes or no. Every category should have a "yes, but feed the app fake data" option.
Want my contacts for no reason? Have these generated fake ones! Wanna listen to my microphone? Here's random ambiance sounds! Location? I'm on a tiny 5x5m island!
Hell yeah! Put it all in your databases mfers!
Actively punishing services wins over boycotts any day. Didn't want that junk in the database? Don't ask for it!
GrapheneOS does this- contacts and storage have scopes such that you can fake out the app into thinking it has access but really quarantine it to a specific folder. I use this for things like applications where I want it to have file access for photos, but only the photos I send to that folder.
