Do you verify every software about jailbreaking and the ones you install via jailbreaking is safe and has no malicious code?
Also, if you really want security; you might as well install GrapheneOS. It’s Open source, and focused A LOT towards security and safety. (with a hint of privacy)
I don’t jailbreak my phone anymore for that exact reason. My personal phone is simply not for playing with anymore. Especially now that it’s connected to financial and confidential information.
There is no perfect security but iOS is by far the best preconfigured option for the ordinary person.
Apart from that the real most important thing is for everyone to always practice basic privacy and security hygiene
That’s exactly why I dumped android for iOS. It’s a lot more secure and I don’t want to fuck around with custom roms and shit anymore. I just want to use my device.
My desktop computer is plenty secure, but I can install whatever app I want from any source. The OS provides security tools to help protect against viruses.
Even on a Mac desktop you can install apps outside the app store.
Apple and Google are pushing for their app stores to be the only option. Imagine having one store chain in the whole world.
And while the app store apps have a verification process, they’re not impenetrable. Apps slip through the system and scam apps are allowed to run rampent. What’s considered malware now has also changed, 25 years ago an app constantly “phoning home”, scanning your data, other apps and collecting data would have been considered malware.
Devices would be most secure if we didn’t run any application.
Unless you flash your own Android roms you don’t control your phone neither
And tbh I trust Apple significantly more than phone carriers and android manufacturers when it comes to my device and its software
i’m sorry, but 😂
Atleast you can flash the Custom ROMs.
In iPhones; you can’t flash a new ROM, AT ALL.
Do you verify each custom rom is safe and has no malicious code?
I used to flash roms all the time…it’s really mostly for fun and I don’t have time for that anymore
iOS is safe, secure, and everything works as is and that’s what matters to me and most people in real life

It is nice when things just work.
This article also is not about security. It is about „freedom“
The article directly states that some of these restrictions are for security purposes.
Freedom and security are quintessential partners across many spheres of life and that is indeed the relationship being discussed here
