🔗 Apple’s permissions features are out of balance // Jason Snell // sixcolors.com

Apple’s recent feature changes suggest a value system that’s wildly out of balance, preferring to warn (and control) users no matter how damaging it is to the overall user experience. Maybe the people in charge should be forced to sit down and watch that Apple ad that mocks Windows Vista. Vista’s security prompts existed for good reasons—but they were a user disaster. The Apple of that era knew it.

Oh how I love a spicy take! (Emphasis is mine.)
