Because exposed, non-private, abused by-default is a business model. The company is incentivised to not provide restricted access - otherwise you can't have a cut from apps revenue. It's defective by design.

Memory safety is good, but does not protect from every threat. In this day and age infrastructure operators should familiarize themselves with proactive defenses, MAC: SElinux and AppArmor. It required much friction earlier, but there are m
