If you care about privacy there is only one true phone and copmuter choice.

>proven in court that FBI cannot crack iPhone 6s+
>Where is the Android phones vs. FBI cases?
>proven in court FBI cannot crack Mac OS X FileVault 2. Instead they jailed the man indefinitely because he refused to decrypt his computer
>Where is the Window vs. FBI court cases where FBI admits they cannot crack Windows BitLocker?

TL;DR Apple is the clear privacy winner while Google and Microsoft are shit.

I think it's all FUD. Encryption is not dependant on platforms. You just have to find a better encryption method.

I'd use an iphone but by old Xperia works fine. I don't give a shit about how my phone looks. I just use it as a portable landline. Nothing more

Well, we already knew that google and MS were shit for privacy. Congrats, Apple is better than burning piles of shit.

I'm not sure how that is impressive. Besides, if you were REALLY about privacy, you would be using devices that couldn't easily be affected by US law.

I use a dumb phone, linux, encryption on boot, a password and image verification on the offline keepass x (and the image isn't on the hard drive), and tutanota for mail (the password for which is only available in my head, and is 17 characters with special symbols, numbers, and letters that do not make any word in any language, and a VPN service based out of Hong Kong.

The FBI can't crack AES encryption, no matter who makes it. It can, however, take side channel attacks. If BitLocker saves your encryption key in the cloud, they can tell Microsoft to give them they key. If the user in question is a dumbass, they can put a keylogger on the phone or computer while it's being used. This would render an iPhone's encryption pretty useless if the suspect in question was not dead or already in jail.

Proper encryption software does exist for Windows, GNU/Linux, Android, etc... however. Make no mistake of it. For Windows and GNU/Linux, you'd use something like Veracrypt. For Android, there is Encrypted Data Store, among other tools.

I think the whole FBI/iPhone thing was just a false flag to make the public underestimate the U.S. govt's computing power and expertise. It makes you more comfy using TOR and other shit without thinking the NSA hasn't cracked it.

OSX, Windows, and 99% GNU/Linux distributions are all equally vulnerable. You're lying to yourself and others by denying this. The only reason why you're not in jail is because governments who have the power to break into your shit only go after people trying to sell chemical weapons, large shipments of firearms/hard drugs, etc. They don't care that you look at the equivalent of giving a kid a bath.

Android is an entirely different beast. It can be stable, relatively secure, and look nice. It can also be laggy, insecure, and hideous. The Nexus devices are approaching Apple quality with secure fingerprint scanners, default FDE, limited bloatware, reversible chargers, and timely updates from Google. I live in Europe and I have a Galaxy s5 that's locked to Sprint for North America. Because the carrier controls update, a patch for stagefright was only given out for my model about 3-4 months ago. That's horrible.

Moving on to iOS, you have something worth using.
>FDE is enabled out of the box. It never lags.
>I always get timely updates that don't render certain apps useless.
>As of iOS 9 you can actually disable/hide most stock apps.
>The jailbreak community isn't full of idiots.
>My phone isn't even jailbroken and 100% of my music is pirated.
>The device needs to be unlocked before connecting to computers.
>It's nearly impossible to hard brick an iOS device.
>iCloud lock keeps niggers from stealing my phone.
