Permissions
A little off subject but with Aeon 1.3.1, actually 1.3, I noticed some new apps like Minus and Palringo App. I checked permissions on them and the apps are loaded with questionable permissions that apply though out my smartphone. I download DroidWall firewall to stop app permission to access my phone but there are two options in dreadwall that I am not sure of in my head to allow (Whitelist or blacklist or even both at same time).
Question: Do I just apply the whitelist apps I want to allow to access internet in wifi and 3G or let all the left over in gray to stay grey. Or do I have to click on blacklist also and blacklist the rest of the apps to complete the process?
What I understand from one article I read is dreadwall firewall apps only work if you do one or the other. For example if I whitelist what I want then all others not listed in whitelist will not have permissions to access the internet unless I put on whitlelist. :) So either blacklist only or whitlist only, is that correct?
Sorry, so long of question  on this matter
