so, the GrapheneOS Android 17 has caused me great annoyance
theres a new feature where some apps are auto granted the "nearby devices" permission to supposedly "keep app working", i know very well this isnt the case as many of these apps dont use it at all, and now ive had to go through and turn it off on every app that has that exact permission to supposedly keep the app working, as this is my device after all and i dont want permissions auto granted which i know very well isnt necessary
