That's fine. But why if this is truly TRANSPARENT, CONSENT AND CONTROL can't I open the folder? Here's the message he folder “com.apple.TCC” can’t be opened because you don’t have permission to see its contents. The same for APPLE PUSH SERVICE folder. Both are in Library; both have a white line enclosed within a red circle in the lower right corner of the folder icon. I would like to be able to access both. Why? A couple of reasons. First what am I "pushing" or what is being" pushed" to me? Secondly, if it is TCC why the control which by nature makes the contents not Transparent or have my consent or my control? Doesn't Apple believe us capable of deciding what we are capable of deciding? There should be no folders that cannot be opened by the owner, the one who paid, for the Mac. For example, when reviewing File Vault in the Security & Privacy preference it is clearly stated without proper knowledge you can lose data. Apple, plain and simple yet for the above mentioned folders, nothing, why? Apple you forget we buy the product, it belongs no longer to Apple so the entire product should be as you state TCC. If I buy a car and work on it without knowledge/experience and make a mess of it, that's my problem. I want the same freedoms with all purchases. Just state plainly the consequences resulting in mismanagement of certain files, folders: state it voids the warranty then the decision is in the hands of the buyer and not in the non owners' hands no matter how capable.
