Because GrapheneOS does not grant any Google Apps and Services apart from the opt-in eSIM action app privileged access to the system, Play Protect cannot disable or uninstall known malicious applications when it detects them.

With this new feature, you no longer have to grant certain apps access to all of your media or files to use them anymore.
