This isn't 1980 anymore. The internet is super hostile and everyone wants to extract data. You're still free to allow every app on your computer full access, I won't. I am very glad that none of the hundreds of apps installed across my phone and Mac can access my photos and cameras without permission.

My concern is that eventually Apple will require all apps (including non-App Store) to be specially approved by Apple in order to get full-disk-access, even if the end-user wants to allow it; like how there are no third-party iPhone/iPad backup apps.
