The 4s runs whatever latest it can be updated to. How can you be so sure lineageos has not been malwared by some Chinese/Russian/nsa folks? I can trust android and iOS, cannot get myself to trust others. Moreover, the base os is not your only choice. You are free to port Firefox to iOS 5.x and install it on your device. No one is stopping you from doing it. Just crying over not have lineageos available for iOS is silly and a red herring.

> The 4s runs whatever latest it can be updated to. Which is a 1,5 years old OS which received no further updates. Check all WebKit CVE from August 2016 till now (all of 2017 at least). I did a quick search, and found 2 RCEs with exploit available: CVE-2017-2471, CVE-2017-7089. > How can you be so sure lineageos has not been malwared by some Chinese/Russian/nsa folks? How can you be sure iOS is not malwared by some Chinese/Russian/NSA folks? At least in LineageOS you can publicly check all source code and commits. > I can trust android and iOS I actually advice against using Android; I suggest LineageOS for microG [1]. Not because of Chinese/Russian/NSA folks but because of Google folks. They spy on Android users. Not with microG though. [1] https://lineage.microg.org/ https://lineage.microg.org/
