Google wants to make sideloading Android apps "safer" by verifying developers’ identities

It’s not the fault of GrapheneOS but iPhones do have a few privacy or security advantages

  • Next most secure smartphone for those who can’t stand GrapheneOS’ usability issues or can’t risk being profiled
  • iMessage E2EE (extremely common in some countries & not yet compatible with RCS E2EE)
  • Apple Pay (most secure option for those who can’t use something like Privacy.com)

(Not saying this makes iPhones better, just that GrapheneOS doesn’t beat it in every scenario.)
