Cybersecurity people with iphones. Not strictly judging them but it is a grim reminder that even the “professionals” barely understand the technological privacy dystopia we live in.
I work in IT and I harshly judge anyone else in IT who willingly chooses an iPhone.
When I started with my current company they gave me my choice of iPhone as a company phone (basically last year’s model at no cost, or I could pay a bit and get the latest model)… when I asked if Android was an option I was told “oh, no… Android is open source, so it isn’t secure”. If I didn’t need the paycheck I would have quit right then. I just stared at my boss and didn’t know what to say. I mean, I knew what I wanted to say, but I also didn’t want to tell my new boss that he’s a dumbass.
So now I carry 2 phones and last year I broke my Android phone and had to use the iPhone as my daily driver for a couple of months. I figured I’d come to appreciate the iPhone but no, there was almost no redeeming qualities.

Perhaps they do, just don’t have enough energy to care about it in private life anymore and just go for convenience like the majority.
