> no access to network ?

I wish this were a capability you could (as a user) grant or reject at will. But there’s a UI problem: people are sick of clicking accept on a million dialog boxes already.
GrapheneOS gives per-app network access control.
Your wish exists. The first thing my phone asks before I install a new app is whether to allow network access or not.
Android and iOS developers need to explicitly request network access in their app's configurations.
