>(there used to be an INTERNET permission but it has been removed by Google)

Can't say I'm too surprised by this development. I am surprised they were magnanimous enough to give it in the first place.

It was likely implemented before google took over android.

It seems unlikely, given that the permissions system (if we're talking being able to approve certain permissions only, per app) only came in a relatively recent version of Android (definitely >3).
