Apple with it’s large war chest and claim of being security and privacy first should prevent most of these bugs.

I don’t expect the same from Google’s Android as their business model is on harvesting data and NOT selling you a secure and privacy-first device.

Google would still like their devices secure. Can't have someone else rooting it and redirecting the sweet sweet data feed...

So Google does not have an interest in keeping their users safe from exploits? Even with things like Project Zero going on in the background?

At this point most people should have realized that Apple's privacy stance is first and foremost a marketing thing.
