The you owe us homework: show that other hardware is meaningfully more secure. If you can't or won't, your point crumbles to nothing.

- fragmede 3y agoI don't see that as the case. There doesn't need to be a provably secure device for another device to be shown to be fundamentally insecure. What is secure, is leaving all phones, hell, all electronics, out of the windowless room to have the sensitive conversation in. It's a lot of friction but if your thread model includes APTs, you have to give up a lot of convenience.
- cpach 3y agoIf Five Eyes are targeting you, then you will need to think very hard about OPSEC indeed. Luckily, most of us are not targeted by the Five Eyes. And when it comes to dragnet surveillance, applications like Signal has raised the bar significantly.
- fragmede 3y agoYou're right but there are APTs other than Five Eyes if you're elsewhere in the world though. Like say the Middle East.
