Dear Apple users,

No, your Apple iPhone is not more private, and YOU can prove it to yourself.

Sign up for either AdGuard DNS or Control D DNS, and enable logging. Be sure to use that DNS profile.

A fresh stock copy of iOS with no 3rd party apps installed will call home more than a Google Pixel or Microsoft Windows 11 Ltsc.

I know there are plenty of languages/vocabulary learning apps around, but are there any (I could use) for short trips? So focusing on things like ordering a beer or a coffee, asking for the bill, buying a bus ticket to somewhere, basics like “hello” and “thank you”…
Specifically looking for Hungarian and Romanian, from English or Dutch.

A reminder: I'm looking for a senior/staff #iOS engineer role, on-site/hybrid in Hamburg, Germany or fully remote elsewhere, can start asap. 10+ years of native iOS development of enterprise and consumer apps. Besides #Swift, #SwiftUI, UIKit, iOS SDK, I've dealt with different app architectures, APIs, frameworks and requirements. Can work both in an agile team and on my own. AI usage isn't a problem but I strongly dislike all other tech stacks.

@9to5Mac now this would be a reason to change to GrapheneOS. Even if on-device, Apple has no right to scan and censure anything, unless activated - AI is never just on-device and we've had this subject before.

Another reason not to upgrade to iPhone 17 too, as Apple cultivates unpredictable policies - one might just end up with a piece of scrap-metal in your hands overnight.
