It's obvious is it? Such insight.

haha, yep checked it out. Not in a cult, confirmed.

Cool. I confirmed what now? Thanks I'll try.

Should I? It sounds like you have. That's frankly a bit creepy.

Many smart phones and mobile plans meet quite a few of your frankly odd criteria. Apples phones certainly would, Including number 10, which has not been an issue for quite a few years now... Unfortunately for you there are no decent smartphones out there that will meet all of them. Number 4 would be nice but won't happen. I'm pretty sure there would be cases out there that could achieve this.

Not a reasonable assessment? I'm not in any cult i'm aware of.

That was my point. The argument you posit was so devoid of anything factual or original it could have been knocked out by a team of poorly trained monkeys. Yet you attached your actual name to it. Embarrassingly i'd guess it more likely a human who hasn't yet reached intellectual adolescence but counter intuitively somehow mastered the ability to document his or her 'opinions' with reasonable clarity.

More angry gibberish, you aren't 'discussing' anything. You could have just said 'yes'

At this point, why not? Their track record seems incredible. Unlike the pixel brand, whoops. New name next year?

Just FYI, you actually wrote all that in a public forum. On the internet. Forever. Good job.

You sound angry. Have you noticed the same feelings about other people that are smarter than you?

Thanks for that moronic, delusional diatribe. Oneplus is the entity abusing linux. Undermining the privacy of their users is the issue at hand not some poorly reasoned consiperacy of corporate shills. I feel stupider having read that. This guy Chris Moore appears to have done some transparent, reproducible legitimate and quite shocking analysis on sensitve data being sent from his home to this corporation. Yet somehow from this you find a way to make this Apples fault. The only company that has actually show they are interested in protecting the privacy of it's users. Grade A+ stupidity.

Seems like a reasonable idea as long as they have capable people to secure it. Whats your point?

You can easily deal with this scenario on iOS. There are many different ways to do it from many developers. See the app store for the 'file browser' app which actually does both. Or you could deal with it inside of google drive (unzipping) and sharing with another app. Or you could remote into a real workstation and do it (vnc's) etc. etc. One thing that (probably) won't happen on iOS is have that file pwning your device. Far more likely on your droid device. I'll take speed and security for a mobile platform (iOS) Maximum flexibility on a desktop platform (OSX with CentOS and Windows VMs)

Why not have both. Anyone paying attention knows that iOS is much more secure than android. Also anyone paying attention knows that Apples mobile CPU's have been 6-12 months ahead for many years now. Slashdot is supposed to be a geek forum but man the anti-Apple thing is out of control in here.
