I think my question is being mis-understood. Let me try to clarify. First, I am asking only about the INTERNET permission.
Per the official Android documentation : https://developer.android.com/preview/features/runtime-permissions.html " - *Limited Permissions Granted at Install Time:* When the user installs or updates the app, the system grants the app all permissions that the app requests that fall under PROTECTION_NORMAL <https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/pm/PermissionInfo.html#PROTECTION_NORMAL>. For example, alarm clock and internet permissions fall under PROTECTION_NORMAL <https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/pm/PermissionInfo.html#PROTECTION_NORMAL>, so they are automatically granted at install time. The system may also grant the app signature and system permissions, as described in System apps and signature permissions <https://developer.android.com/preview/features/runtime-permissions.html#system-apps>. The user is *not* prompted to grant any permissions at install time. " Particular note that it says "....the system grants the app all permissions that *the app requests*". So, if the app does not have INTERNET permission in its AndroidManifest.xml, it won't be granted access to INTERNET in that case ?
