What doesn't fit here?
The core of the story has to be technology focused.
- If article mentions "AI" in a sentence and then talks about business economics that doesn't make it tech news.
- Gaming is too many layers removed from technology. There are many dedicated communities that are a better fit for it.
- Transporation is too many layers removed from technology. EVs while use many cool technologies have many dedicated communities that are a better fit for it.
- Entertainment is too many layers removed from technology. While sometimes it can fit here, business or cultural aspects of it are a better fit for dedicated communities.
- Cybersecurity. While it heavily focuses on technology, most of the time it's too technical for most people who are not already invested in it. Should be posted in a dedicated communities unless it has broader connection to other tech areas.
Post guidelines
Title format
Post title should mirror the news source title. If you don't like the title of article, look for an alternative source instead of editorializing it.
URL format

[Opinion] prefix
Opinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title. Opinion articles refer to articles that their publisher doesn't explictly endorse.

Damn..
So the dream is dead?
Everyone that cares about security or privacy is working on custom android ROMs since there is no actual benefit to Apple hardware or software at this point in history. Plus you save money buying a Pixel device.
Google is doing their best to strangle those too, by only releasing their source code when a new major Android release comes out. Custom ROM developers then have to rebase and integrate several months of commits all at once, with nowhere near enough time or resources to actually vet more than a tiny fraction of the changes.
Not everyone. Depending where you live there's no devices available that are compatible with secure custom ROMs (you might be able to deGoogle, but that's different from being secure).
Your security doesn't just depend on what flavour of AOSP you decide to use. I'm assuming you're referring to GrapheneOS, which is only compatible with Pixel devices. Your threat model is also highly relevant. Depending on who you are and what you do, you can be secure on say LineageOS, which will run on a large variety of devices.
