That’s an insane take. Sure, Google is less thorough on checking the garbage that gets on the Play Store, but if that was a factor, malware that has made it on the Apple app store would have done it too. They have never been able to bypass permissions because they’re built into the OS and security hardware.
Edit: People having such a poor understanding of security and buying Apple’s propaganda, ON LEMMY, is so disappointing
