Hey, we have a ton of resources that we try to share widely, so happy to have a look. I'm guessing you want to keep your basic guide short and pithy? E.g try to keep it to single sentences etc...

Happy to have a look at what you got tomorrow morning.

What's the deal with recommending iPhone over Android?

Does this guide recommend Android?

For a normal threat model user, it's hard to fault an iPhone these days, especially compared to the cluster*ck that is Android security updates.

However, most of the stuff we have written about in both the online trainings and Umbrella is for Android. Mostly because it is by far the most prominent platform for the major of countries that have the highest prominence of security threats to citizens, activists, journalists, aid workers etc.

You can understand why I'm not eager to wade into this particular discussion on HN --- it has nothing to do with your comments!

But yes: we do strongly recommend iPhones.
