This is a very entertaining and educational article, giving insights into the methods used by thiefs to try and get access to your phone data.

I don't like Apple but it's great that their security is so good when it comes to this.

Whoa that was a wild ride, worth the read. It's a sad market that exists, great to see Apple's privacy and security at work (as an Android user even).

I'm not a big fan of iphones or a lot of stuff apple does anymore, but I'm seriously considering moving back to Apple since Google keeps seeming like a worse and worse option (and I'm just not ready to ready to move to some firmware-hacked or otherwise degooglefied Android system). Yesterday's article about their privacy lead getting fired/quitting and not replaced is just the latest nail.

I’m saying this as a lifetime Linux user and decently tech competent person who knows all about the different android roms: if you’re considering it, switch to ios as soon as you can. Buy the phone outright from apple, no financing or plan.
