Android example to read text file, with request permission at runtime.
To read file in Android, if your app is installed on device that runs Android 6.0 (API level 23) or higher, you must request the dangerous permissions at runtime. (ref: Android Developers : Request app permissions)
Also shown in the video, access to /proc/net filesystem is restricted on Android 10+
On devices that run Android 10 or higher, apps cannot access /proc/net, which includes information about a device's network state. Apps that need access to this information, such as VPNs, should use the NetworkStatsManager or ConnectivityManager class. (ref: Android Developers: Privacy changes in Android 10 > Restriction on access to /proc/net filesystem)
