I've removed them. Is there any justification why these apps shouldn't simply be listed with a spyware warning? I've tried to see the "innocent misunderstanding" angle but I just can't.

Linkedin. Not sure why it needed to snoop the clipboard. Anyone care to explain why it needed that access?

I can't see any reason why Reddit needed it either. Reddit broke their web experience as well.

Can't these apps rely on paste? Or it is a tooling/sdk issue?

I also found the app I use to top up phone credit was demanding camera access on android. Removed that as well. Spyware.
