Personally I think Gatekeeper overreaches a bit and should just give the option to run anyway off the bat.
In Catalina, I could not authorize the app in System Preferences/Security & Privacy/Privacy/Full Disk Access. I'm not sure which MacOS you're running, or why I ran into difficulties, but I couldn't get the script to run until I searched for a solution online which lead me to Terminal. Hopefully, anybody who was in the same boat as I was can just follow my instructions and get up and running.

I agree that Gatekeeper overreaches, but then I like not getting viruses.
