  • conveniently ignoring that google runs a dedicated, ccp-friendly version of google

    If you had paid any attention, you’d know that the point was that on Android it’s way easier to simply not use the Play Store (without compromising your security even), so Google doesn’t have nearly as much control.

    conveniently ignoring that there are altstores for jailbroken iphones

    It is much less accessible, less supported and can be a security risk. If it was so easy, why didn’t the people in HK simply do that?

    conveniently ignoring the gigabytes of undeletable bloatware

    Still better than iOS, which is the point of the video.

    conveniently ignoring that there are several apps like protonvpn that prevents tracking in general

    Using ProtonVPN doesn’t “prevent tracking in general” and that you think it does is showing about how qualified you are on this topic.

    shilling graphene without mentioning that one has to buy an iphone price tagged pixel to install it, not going down that installing a rom is way out of the skillset of karen mcnormie

    You can get a Pixel for less, but do you know what also is iPhone price tagged? iPhones.

    There’s a web installation for GrapheneOS not shown in the video that is so easy my grandma might be able to do it given some time.

    a rom maintained by a single guy in india who claims it’s very privacy respecting

    This is so far from the truth that you might as well say it’s currently maintained by an alien on mars.

    TLDR - for the sake of yourself and everyone that might be misled by your misinformed comments, please educate yourself. Everyone has to start somewhere, and admitting you don’t know what you’re talking about is much more respectable than typing bs because you don’t know any better. You can start your journey by actually watching the video while paying attention, or alternatively reading about GrapheneOS on their official website.
