This mindset is how we got those awful cookie banners.

Even more dialogs that most users will blindly tap "Allow" to will not fix the problem.

Society has collectively decided (spiritually) that it is ok signing over data access rights to third parties. Adding friction to this punishes 98% of people in service of the 2% who aren't going to use these services anyway.

Sure, a more educated populous might tip the scales. But it's not reality, and the best UX reflects reality.
