Have you read the announcement? iPhones are wide open for the 3-letter-agencies, too.

While the Wikileaks announcement explicitly mentions the iPhone (zero-days to "control, infest, and exfiltrate data"), the NY Times article mentions only Android in the context of bypassing Signal, WhatsApp.
I don't think that's a fair description of the information. Comments GP refers to include e.g. SEP -- iOS' threat model includes kernel-level 0days.
