I wish Galaxy phones had this new privacy feature, but Google might nix it

• HONOR has announced a nifty virtual permissions feature for its phones in China.
• This feature sends blank data to select apps that request your contact list, calendar, and other permissions.
• Realme had a similar feature in global markets, but we’ve discovered the company may have killed this feature to keep Google happy.

Google and Samsung phones offer plenty of privacy and security features. This includes spam detection, call screening, Advanced Protection Mode, and the ability to block USB connections via a locked phone. However, HONOR has launched a new feature that I’d like to see on Pixel and Galaxy phones.
