I don't pretend to know what causes people to change, so I can't answer your question where it seems like you're implying that he would only change if that was the case. All I know is that he admited to it, so if that's

Insert all of the practical reasons why that story is made-up or at least extremely embellished.

I had a Nexus 5X that bootlooped, but if IIRC from my research at the time, Nexus 5 also had the same problem, albeit seemingly to a lesser extent.

If I was Apple, I would be getting that torn down and suing immediately (or hiring their quasi-police force to tear it down with or without permission). I doubt Apple "allows" it. Apple probably even forbids it in their Terms of

I'm always looking for guides on how to improve physical world privacy if anyone knows of any.

Nice and simple UI, thank you. How can we get people to switch from services like X/Twitter or other chat apps to something like this though?

Do German driver's licenses normally have addresses on them? If legal actions were to occur involving an average person, how does that person get notofied? How would you be notified?
