Set "Security & Privacy" (manual) preferences

[alebelcor]

I haven't found a way to automate this so instead I have to do this manually.

In Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Location services

* Deselect "Siri & Dictation"
* Click on "Details" next to "System Services"
* Deselect everything except "Find My Mac"

In Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Analytics

* Disable "Share Mac Analytics"
* Disable "Share with App Developers"
* Disable "Share iCloud Analytics"

In Preferences > Security & Privacy > General

* Select "Require password `immediately` after sleep or screen saver begins"

These settings don't seem to be modified even after I save the output of defaults read before and after changing it.

In Preferences > Security & Privacy > General

• Select "Require password immediately after sleep or screen saver begins"

# Require password immediately after sleep or screen saver begins
defaults write com.apple.screensaver askForPassword -int 1
defaults write com.apple.screensaver askForPasswordDelay -int 0

Thanks for your comment.

I already have those settings but I've noticed that, if I change them to something else (via the Preferences UI) and then set them back like this:

defaults write com.apple.screensaver askForPassword -int 1
defaults write com.apple.screensaver askForPasswordDelay -int 0

And restart, the changes aren't reflected at Preferences > Security & Privacy > General

🤷‍♂️

I expect the defaults write commands to take precedence but maybe changing those settings via the UI is overriding that somewhere I'm not aware of.
