Oh really, so [the Pegasus attacks on Galina Timchenko](https://meduza.io/en/episodes/2023/09/16/the-pegasus-spyware-attack-on-meduza) and dozens of other people, including Jamal Khashoggi, never happened? Or, do you seriously not understand that the impact on one journalist is greater than on thousands of nobodies like you?
Google could've implemented better measures to circumvent bugging, like iPhones' 'lockdown' mode, but claiming that infecting with spyware never happens on Android is plain disingenuous and idiotic.

"statistically doesn't happen" is not equivalent to "has never happened". It means the number of times it has happened is such a statistically insignificant % of the user base that it does not pass the smell test for being the reason to inconvenience *every* user.
