For a technically focused site they sure do present an awful lot of misinformation. Android may have more malware hiding in apps but that's not the same as claiming iOS is more secure. Some security researchers have stated that Android is actually more secure than iOS and the fragmented nature of the ecosystem is actually something of a benefit at times. Android isn't being hit with something like Pegasus. The privacy claims are laughable. As we've seen recently Apple and Google are collecting virtually identical data on you but only Google is open and transparent about both the collection and the use. Apple likes to be secret about everything. The upcoming CSAM scanning is going against everything Apple has claimed to be about for the past ten years. The way I see it they're both equal these days but at least Google is open about it. Lest anyone claim I'm some Android fanboy defending my platform of choice, I've been using both side by side for years. I'm well aware of their strengths and weaknesses and Apple's claims of being the most secure and private OS have been shown to be nothing but marketing fluff as of late. I do agree with the premise of the article. iOS is still what I recommend to non-technical people who want something that's going to mostly stay out of the way and mostly stay the same over time. It's still the best option for long term and third party support.
