We've made a lot of improvements to Settings over the years - how's it working for you these days?

Everything seems so tedious now. For example if you want to turn off all the sensor permissions you need to click/switch/back for like 30 of them. I know it's an intentional dark pattern, but it shouldn't be that way. Fortunately there are scripts.
Then my IT department calls me wanting to know why I'm running something called 'privacy.sexy' on my AVD box because it's 'malware'.
Sorry, I'm trying to not beat you up here, it's just frustrating using a user-hostile OS. I used to enjoy Microsoft operating systems, from NT 3.5, to betas of every OS from Win2k through mid-beta 10, even Millenium! (Sorry, didn't test that one enough.)
Okay, I'll stop ranting. None of this is probably your fault. Just frustrating how much time I've wasted trying to undo or block what's been done to the OS.
