If the goal is rhetoric and not truth, no amount of repeating droll truisms is going to prevent that. Additionally this comment thread has been fairly tame. It doesn’t need to be said so much, obviously. I’ve counted what, 3 times so far in

This sounds completely made up. If you have more info than pure conjecture, please share. I would wager the sensor drivers for Windows were written by apple.

Again, you speak in this world of binary absolutes. Passionate, but clearly not an experienced security practitioner. “A secure platform saves you from bad apps, period” How did you come to this statement? Because my initial reaction is not

“Either iOS is secure or it’s not” You must not be up on security, and that’s cool, we all have stuff to learn. So let’s define our terms a little bit. What is our walled garden and what does it bring to the table in terms of security? Off

Nobody is confusing Chinese people with the PRC. Stop muddying the waters of an important and policy impacting conversation.

PRC = China for conversations regarding government policy and potential privacy violations and undue pressure on development. The same concerns could be had for software developed in the U.S. US Gov = U.S. for all intents and purposes with
