Android M will give app users a lot better control over their data privacy

From Sophos Naked Security:


Android M will give app users a lot better control over their data privacy


Google unveiled the developer preview of the next version of Android at its annual I/O developer conference last week, and there's a big difference from previous versions in how it will handle user data.


Instead of forcing users to accept a long list of app permissions up front when they install an app, Android "M" devices will ask for permission to use certain features only when it needs them - what Google calls "runtime permissions."
