You're conflating telemetry with permissions. macOS doesn't attempt to stop apps reporting how they're used, why would it? Instead Apple gathers such data and then keeps it for itself, requiring devs to go via Apple to get it.
macOS does have stronger security, but it's security in the form of stopping apps accessing files until they need permission and things.
