I'm assuming by hackers they mean malicious apps. Risk should be next to zero for users who only install from Play Store but still, good to see it being addressed. I never was a fan of the camera/mic permissions that started appearing on apps. I can't wait to disable them ALL on everything except for the stock dialer, camera, and Hangouts when M is released.
