 ===== TCCs =====
-  - “Do not become Windows Vista” should be a specific goal of the TCC team. If the TCC team transgresses this, the TCC team should lose 10% of base salary and all options until the problem is resolved.
+//The TCC system is Apple's Transparency, Consent and Control system, which provides pop-up modals to approve microphone, camera, location, startup item, background item, photo gallery, filesystem, and probably 22 other individual per-action permissions.//

   - TCC denials should actually mean something. Has anyone on the TCC team actually denied something? If you do choose to deny something, most TCC prompts immediately re-prompt. If the system is not expecting users to deny something it should not exist.
   - TCCs should be centralized, in System Settings, by app, and not by TCC. If an app needs a permission, it should be trivial to go to the particular app’s panel and turn it on.
