I love this part: "What’s more - apps should be prepared to function properly even when a user denies them those permissions."
Facebook could learn a thing or two from that!

I love that MIUI roms ask for permissions for everything. It's nice to see Apple doing the same thing.

Very happy to see this. Hopefully other companies will follow Apple's lead.
