I built a cyber team in my company a couple of years ago.
The ethical hackers are called Pen Testers. They all get their kicks out of picking locks on doors as a side hobby. Strange bunch but they have helped me out on a few occasions so I like them!!

Was chatting/advising with a university about the subjects they covered. They now offer very popular specific cyber security degrees, but I think it's the wrong tact. You can't properly defend against SQL injection if your understanding of SQL is cursory. It should be a specialisation once you are fully qualified in software engineering.

Buy a Raspberry Pi, install https://pi-hole.net, use it as your DHCP server instead of your router and marvel at how stuff tracks you. This will also act as a security barrier for dodgy malware on sites.
Also check if port 53 is open on your router. If it is close it right now. The amount of junk routers that have it open by default is stupid.

Can you still download the app if you don't give them permissions?

Some apps accept you restricting permissions, others force it.
