I am developing hate for samsungs and i phones

I hate Samsung phones

i want an ubuntu phone

Might have to try motorola or chinese phones next time

Ubuntu won't make a good mobile OS

I wish it wasn't nearly impossible to protect your privacy on Android. There's a reason why rarely any company phones are Android phones.

not enough demand and Android has baked for so. long it would be hard to catch up

it's impossible for any company on any phone to. completely protect data

also I work for a huge tech company and use my android

one of the big three in fact

Its not impossible to protect your phone data

Just inconvenient

In my experience most of the major tech companies with loan out iPhones to employees because of how integrated Google's servers are into the core OS, whereas on iOS you can lock it down pretty hard without totally destroying functionality because of how much stuff is locally stored and processed

Too much data leakage on android

Otherwise, I vastly prefer android. I had a Pixel before I got increasingly privacy-concious and it was probably the best phone I've ever used.

my phone is a very `very` early version of android, from before the smart phone era, but the android emulator on my desktop is alright and i have very little else to judge phones by

it is impossible

if you think otherwise you are mistaken

The best you can do is deter somebody that's it you cannot completely stop all compromising

And you certainly can't stop all compromising from an endpoint

Security is different from privacy

is it though?

let's say your phone is hacked. is your privacy safe?

I buy Asus phones.

I'm using the Asus Zenfone 5Q right now.

1+ here

Yes, they are a bit different, though you often need security to protect privacy. What I mean though is that the average person is not typically worried about a targeted attack, but a bigger concern is casual data leakage from apps that transmit tons of stuff back and forth to their servers with no care. Data which can be used to generate a profile on you. No amount of security will protect you from that.

3 years rolling, no problems, still works like a charm

It's the concept of putting a lock on your doors, versus the concept of shouting so loud the neighbors can hear.

Oh.
