Re: The problem is that Apple is double-dipping
"I'm an Android fanboi because of things like fdroid, which sells open source apps only, and compiles them from source itself, so you can look at the source of the app you're running."
And, if that's what floats your boat, that's fine. The vast majority of the rest of the world has very little skill at vetting source code, and far less interest in wasting their leisure time doing so. It helps to remember that, statistically speaking, in terms of interest and ability in such things the majority of regular El Reg readers are outliers
