Re: Over a third of apps have location permission anyhow
But since there are perfectly legitimate reasons for background location tracking (navigation, geologging, et al), you'll just raise a culture of "Click OK to get the hell out of my way." Put mildly, the average person doesn't want to know all the gritty details. They just want their app and that's that. Sure, they complain when they get pwned, but they also complain when they have to jump through too many hoops (which is the only practical way to safeguard against being pwned without your knowledge). Sounds to me like you can't win.
