The privacy of an Apple phone that allowed the Saudi prince to order a hacking into Bezos' phone, which ultimately leaked out info and led to his divorce? Yeah, no thanks.

Being on Blackberry, or any non-Google phone really, allows me to segregate my really important stuff from my every day stuff. Equating Apple's security to that kind of segregated security is a bunch of absolute horse crap.

Here you go, read how this worked: https://www.ohchr.org/Documents/Issues/Expression/SRsSumexFr...

TLDR, if your phone passes network traffic then it can be “hacked” too.

Security through obscurity is also horse crap, but hey carry your two phones if it makes you feel safer!
