Finally got MM for my Zenfone 2 this morning. I'm a Beta tester so not sure if it's been released for everyone. Haven't really explored it fully but I like the app permission function.

Permission requests annoy me. But, maybe that's something that would bite me in the ass if it didn't exist. Hard to say. I don't think I've been bitten previously ... at least, no outward signs... money missing from bank etc...

I've stopped rooting long ago. I understand the need for it for some people, but I found it just wasn't something I really needed, and I've rarely missed it. I think of it was something I could do once and never have to worry about, that would be cool... but Xiaomi has updates like once every couple weeks.... Some phones causes big problems with OTA etc... as well.
Regarding permissions... I don't even pay attention. Not saying that's smart...but...

Pay attention to those permissions. I don't regard it as an outright security threat but as a privacy issue. It's simply none of their business.

Interesting. I guess that what makes the world go 'round.
Really most people don't know what the gov is until they've had a run in (or are gov themselves)...They're nothing more than organized gangs. Granted, needed otherwise complete chaos ensues...Nonetheless, the world thrives on making laws to lock people up and persecute blue collar "criminals".

I sound so petty, but my overshadowing concern with the extra permissions is the resources the app uses to do all those extra things. Don't bog my phone down, mofos!
Also, thanks for the heads-up on Marshmallow!

Doe this mean the end of LP updates?
