Regarding this statement

@FlankaTank

As we mentioned in our roadmap , we’ve been working hard to extend the functionality and give you the option to enable privacy and permissions for your meshes, mesh parts, decals, and images. We expect to launch the beta to all creators in early 2025. That launch will also extend the audio and video sharing with groups and friends functionality to other asset types and include enhancements that will benefit all creators.

Does this mean that, like audios, decals will follow the same path as the audio privacy changes from March 2022? Or will it be handled differently? For example, the update made audios private, preventing existing experiences from using them unless the asset was specifically whitelisted for a group or if the person had developer permissions within the group. I’m pretty sure this will affect public models created by users who likely don’t have the decals included within the model on sale.
