I think this is an instance where the truth is somewhere in the muddle. I'm sure there are engineers who care very much about securing cellular devices and making the attack surface as small as possible, probably working for Apple, Google, and perhaps for a few of those nation-state actors as well. I'm equally sure there are time crunched engineers who are more than happy to not go looking for problems when they have a piece of hardware that works (for their employer's intents and purposes), and that there are actors and entities out there who are dedicated to taking advantage of those insecurities.
However, that doesn't make for a very sexy headline.
- Someone 11y ago"the truth is somewhere in the muddle" Nice Freudian slip. "Muddle" to me sounded like one, probably because of its similarity to huddle, but a bit to my surprise it is a word, with an even more appropriate meaning "an untidy and disorganized state or collection."

Pretty sure the parent poster was getting close to the end of the day, and could almost feel its minty relief on their tongue, hence the slip.
