PHPStorm update on Mac requests access to Documents, Downloads, Desktop, and... Photos?
Why tho? Really JetBrains? You don't access to these folders. All of my repos are in Sites. I can't even imagine why it now needs access to all of these things now, especially Photos. I mean, that's where I keep all of my racy debug screenshots...

That's a known problem, please see it explained here: https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001849319-IDE-requests-access-to-calendar-contacts-photos-etc-on-macOS-Mojave
Feel free to click "Don't Allow" there.
Thanks. I'm glad Apple made the restrictions, because I had no idea PHPStorm was previously trying to scan these folders; I've seen nothing in my projects to lead to this, as they're all just in my Sites folder.
Just got the calendar prompt today... declining it.
