This disclosure relates to management of privileges associated with applications accessible by users of electronic devices. In one aspect, an electronic device detects that a privilege has been revoked, shuts down any application running on the electronic device that has previously accessed the privilege, and restarts any application that was shut down, the restarted application no longer having any access to the revoked privilege. In another aspect, an electronic device keeps a log of which applications have previously accessed which privileges, receives a new set of privileges associated with applications, determines that a privilege has been revoked, and if the log indicates that an application previously accessed the privilege, resets the electronic device. In a further aspect, a method sets privileges associated with applications, records which electronic devices have which applications, revokes a privilege, and instructs those electronic devices having applications to which the privilege is associated to reset themselves. |
