want to add an `authorize_if always()` at the bottom of your policy, like so:

forbid_if user_is_denylisted()
forbid_if user_is_in_denylisted_group()
authorize_if always()

```elixir
policy always() do

An authorization extension for ash resources.
To add this extension to a resource, add it to the list of `authorizers` like so:
```elixir
use Ash.Resource,
...,
authorizers: [
Ash.Policy.Authorizer
]
```
A resource can be given a set of policies, which are enforced on each call to a resource action.
For reads, policies can be configured to filter out data that the actor shouldn't see, as opposed to
resulting in a forbidden error.
See the [policies guide](/documentation/topics/policies.md) for practical examples.
Policies are solved/managed via a boolean satisfiability solver. To read more about boolean satisfiability,
see this page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boolean_satisfiability_problem. At the end of
the day, however, it is not necessary to understand exactly how Ash takes your
authorization requirements and determines if a request is allowed. The
important thing to understand is that Ash may or may not run any/all of your
authorization rules as they may be deemed unnecessary. As such, authorization
checks should have no side effects. Ideally, the checks built-in to ash should
cover the bulk of your needs.
