> The app needs permission to access your data. If you want to use the application what choice do you have except to grant it access?

But it doesn't need network access to be useful, so it doesn't have that permission and can't exfiltrate your data?

    In general, what's three point of a link to a sandbox in a conversation about the benefits of sanboxingm

    But specifically, this sandbox also kills all interop with your system, other apps/utilities, so way too disruptive for the purpose of isolating just from the network.
