Probably because anyone smart enough to work in tech is smart enough to have an iPhone instead of an Android
4 comments

Maybe we're smart enough to want to be able to develop an app without having to use a mac, or easily push any app to our phone, etc.

I would actually argue the opposite. Any techie that loves to tinker on things will probably prefer an andriod phone over an apple one.

Ah yes, you're part of the "exclusive club" of people who own an iPhone; they only added 200M members to their ranks last year. Only the smartest, tech Rockstars... or anyone with a piece of government issue id and enough credit to get a 2-year cell plan.
Really? I'd guess that, controlling for income, a larger proportion of tech workers use Android phones than the general population.
Lol at thinking that Apple is somehow more secure. You've bought the lie. I use Graphene.
is it really about security in the original comment though?
Then what is it about? The poster claims it's about intelligence so i don't see how else it could be.
