Apple’s Errors

I would never in my life use a Chinese phone. Chinese manufacturers are _guaranteed_ to be in the pocket of the CPC and its security services. Moreover, their record on security and privacy is poor. For a device that is so intimately tied to my personal data, the premium I pay for Apple's brand is vastly inferior to the value I would lose by constantly worrying about my privacy with a Chinese handset.

Although I prefer iPhones, I don’t think any American manafacturer is not in the pocket of the NSA.

At least NSA follows the rule of law. Yes, you can argue they sometimes don’t, or they they push things. But there is simply no comparison at all with China where there is no rule of law at all.
