/e/ has drastically worse privacy and security from the Android Open Source Project or especially and iPhone. It's not a step up from standard AOSP. It lags many months behind on many High/Critical severity patches, years behind on overall patches and rolls back the privacy/security in a bunch of ways. It includes many invasive services.
It has many default enabled highly privileged Google services including downloading Google Play executables such as droidguard and running those with similar privileged access as they have on a Google Mobile Services OS anyway.
Insinuating that real privacy /security is for pedophiles and criminals is primarily what supports my conclusion.
It doesn't matter what your marketing says, what's important is what your devices do, and /e/ is much less secure or private than iOS.
Attacking GrapheneOS which makes real progress at privsec.
Thinking that badness enumeration is effective for improving privacy while ignoring real solutions like improving the app sandbox and adding more permissions.
Adding Google services and giving them extra privileges. GrapheneOS ships with zero Google services by default.
It's interesting how you are able to conclude that.
e/OS is clearly a step up from default Android
