This may be more of an OS question then the Classic but once again coming from the 9930, I was curious to see if BB10 on the Classic has similar firewall options like on the 9930. On the 9930 I would go to OPTIONS - DEVICE - APPLICATION MANAGEMENT and then EDIT PERMISSIONS for each app whereby I could deny user data, etc. Is this possible on BB10/Classic? This is the main reason why I don't want to switch to Android because there is no built in firewall (although there was for a short time until Google removed it) and I don't want some unknown third party app running a virtual VPN to filter my apps or have to root the phone. Anyway, if anyone knows if this is still possible let me know. If it is possible, will it work on some of the core apps as well?

Thanks in advance.
