NSA backdoored proprietary iOS vs Open source GrahpeneOS....



Yes, because the NSA definitely does not have an entire library of top secret zero days for 90% of the software packages included in your Open Source OS. And your hardware definitely doesn't have any backdoors.

Maintaining privacy against a state level actor is essentially a nerd fan fiction daydream. If the US government is after you, you're fucked no matter what.


As I always say... if your threat model contains the NSA, GRU, CCP or any other sophisticated state actor you're better off not using any technology because the moment you do you've lost.
