There is a "on by default" option on my CM13 privacy guard. It would suck for an unsavy user to use though I admit.

Yes there is this option but it does nothing, since the default permissions privacy guard allows when "on by default" seem to be the permissions the app requires, I.e. you have to manually set them either way.
