@simon apps that you give this permission can make local network connections, that is, they can scan and map your local network, TV, washing machine, idk people connect _all sorts_ to their LANs now. And who reads app EULAs in full, to see the part where it says “we can pass on the fingerprints from our network scan to advertising data brokers who will use them to target you based on what’s on your network”? That’s the legal, pleasant outcome.
