I think this is more a teleological argument he is making and I agree. We've become numb to these permission warnings. Oh this app needs access to my camera because I need to take a photo of something once at registration. Why can't it link to my default trusted photo app and that app can send a one time transfer to it? I hardly question these permissions anymore since many apps need permissions for rare one off functions. The only thing I deny every single time is my contact list.
I will thank you

I don't give anything mic or camera access on iOS. It's really not an inconvenience, and anything that demands it is something I don't want on my phone anyways.
You don't use the camera or phone?
I'm very obviously not talking about system apps.
You don't have to give third party apps permissions they don't need.
Come on man, you know they didn't mean it literally 💀
Some of us are autistic. I didn't understand it either.
