> Apple spends a hell of a lot more time and money verifying that my iPhone is secure than say… the developers of any number of the mobile Linux ports.
Secure against entities they don't like. But intentionally insecure against entities they do like.
My comment was directed at the people who would say “don’t use apple” as if Android or any number of FOSS phone alternatives with 5 people maintaining them are more secure than IOS.
Plus the hardware is nice and actually works.
I agree with what you say in principle but here I am using an iPhone to type this while it’s been nearly 2 years since I ordered my Librem 5.
Making decent mobile devices that are more secure than an iPhone is not an easy thing.
