I think a lot of people are looking for any reason to put Apple down. I'm guessing it's both because Apple and its users love to brag about security and because HN users hate the cost that you pay for that security: a device locked down from its own owner.

That is true - apple is locking everyone out - including the person who paid for it. But that does make the iphone relatively better from a security standpoint.

The overseas android market is a wasteland security side - no one even pretends, they don't even keep the phones updated.
