Say, an app declared itself as
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
Is there a way for a user (or another app) to revoke that permission (w/o iptables of course)?

Short of uninstalling the app? No. Permission decisions are a one-time thing when the app is installed.

Exactly.App A declares a permission(with same signature restriction) and B uses it. If you install B first and then A, it won't be able to access the resource provided by A. Got to reinstall B.
