An important privacy feature in Android 4.3.3 has been removed from the Play Store. The feature allows users to install apps while preventing apps from collecting sensitive data like the user’s location or address book.

Google should be able to add some polish to the App Ops interface, and complete the fundamental pieces that it is missing, says the group.”]
