    Part of the reason other phones are cheaper is because you’re the product. They’re collecting data and selling it. If you don’t want this you’re going to have to pay more.

      other phones are cheaper mostly due to economies of scale, though. like, idk, china makes a few million phones at once, while in europe they make, what, a few thousand phones at once?
