One thing is being aware of bad actors on the internet, in that case IOS could be an option, other thing is being aware of the mass surveillance and manipulation across the digital space, and that’s the thing we’re more worried about in communities like this, in such case, IOS is no better than shooting yourself (i understand the point of the difficulties of having a custom rom, but that’s just a skill issue).

You can’t become privacy conscious without sacrificing something, some friend will go away calling you a paranoid, somo products you own will become garbage, that’s just normal here.

    Sure. For example, they’ve implemented cross-site tracking prevention in Safari. That disables tracking on the user end, but companies that pay for cookies on countless websites, like Google and Meta, will still obtain your site traffic through purchases. You can completely disable cookies to prevent this, but that’s really going to inhibit your browsing experience. Apple does not collect user data for their own ad purposes. If you opt-in to receiving marketing emails from Apple, you receive the same emails as everyone else.

    I’m not sure why Apple hasn’t offered iMessage as a standard for all devices. E2EE commonly uses four transmissions per message (sender encryption, recipient encryption, sender decryption, recipient decryption), so it may not be economically justified to offer the service for non-customers at the cost of their servers. That’s honestly just a guess.

    iCloud is secured with 256-bit AES encryption as of 2022. It was released with 128-bit in 2011. It was well above any competitor encryption offered at the time.
