I think this will be unpopular with government workers, but to some extent it mirrors what the US government did with Chinese phones as well (per my understanding, US government workers can't use Huawei or Xiaomi phones). In a utopian world, it would be lovely to see Earth's governments work together to collaborate on mobile security. Exploits for popular Android and iOS endanger almost the entire population of both China and the USA, because everything from basic banking to complex intellectual property is digitized these days. If everyone was able to work together on this, and pool resources, we could probably eliminate a majority of the world's biggest vulnerabilities. As a software engineer, I get very sad looking at politics. Every major government in the world shares a common interest in keeping their citizen's secure digitally, but rather than collaborating, we've fallen back to the old human habits of lies, grudge-carrying, and distrust. The USA, China, Russia, Israel, and others all have advanced espionage programs, and rather than fixing bugs they enjoy the privileges of hoarding and exploiting them. I completely understand that my utopian ideal of a world without such programs is impractical. I am likewise aware that we'll never see this type of behavior stop. But I still fantasize of a world where, rather than trying to get advantages over each other using technology, people can build towards the common good.
