Use of the Mac versions of DJI Assistant 2 (Consumer Drones Series) V2.1.3 requires granting DJI superuser status! In order to use the software, you need to grant DJI Sudo privilages by giving them your login password. As I understand, Sudo privilages allows DJI full access to your computer. While it might be helpful to have DJI take charge of you computer while troubleshooting, you're basically granting them full access to your entire computer. It's not clear if this access is one time, or if DJI stores your login password. Maybe I worry for nothing, but what do other users know. Virus software lights up when it sees the software and give a warning of a Trojan Horse. Are you at all concerned?

You dont give your password to the DJI software, you give it to the OS to enable the access.   The password is never shared with the app itself.
