Google Removes Vital Privacy Feature From Android,...
As long as the disallowed permissions simply return empty results (or random stuff) for the API calls, I don't see how this can break apps.

AFAIK, AppOps doesn't do this, it throws a java exception when the app code attempts to use a permission that has been disabled. Depending on how the code is structured, you may or may not have your app break/crash.
