I haven't tested this yet but we all know that apps such as Facebook , Snapchat , and tik tok spy on normal os users daily even if those users disable the camera and mic access to these apps .

Let's say that I'm running graphene os and have tik tok installed. I completely disabled microphone and camera access and put my phone down to charge, watch a movie , jerk off whatever . If tik tok tried to secretly run the mic or camera in the background without my knowledge would graphene os alert me by popping up a notification for me to enable mic or camera access or is that not a possibility?

If it is a possibility wouldn't that validate that these apps are secretly trying to spy on us ? You would think on a normal phone such as iPhone or stock android it would pop up a notifcation to enable microphone/camera if this was the case but then again I guess it would defeat the purpose of secretly trying to spy on the user wouldn't it ?

What are yalls thoughts on this ?

I actually bought a pixel 6a unlocked ($480) at best buy a few days ago and specifically so I could install graphene os operating system and to be completely honest I absolutely love it ! Battery last a long time , everything runs super smooth/fast and I haven't experienced any issues that made me concerned in the slightest ! I've had iphones my whole life but now I don't think im ever going back to one again after switching . The only thing I will complain about is the interface throwing me off but I will learn to adjust ! My next purchase is deff going to be a pixel 7 whenever its time for a 2nd phone but for now the pixel 6a (budget phone ) is deff getting the job done . two things I personally love about the 6a so far is the speakers for music or video and how it doesn't lag when I'm multi tasking
