    Yes but there's always bugs and some of those bugs lead to privilege escalation. Phones mostly just remove the "user clicked yes on the root access prompt" attack. And other attack surface reductions.

    mobile phones yes, smartphones (android, iOS) no. They are riddled with backdoors.

    Quite the opposite. Every single text message you send inside the united states is saved by both the us and the chinese government. This is why you have to use signal.

    Also, if you connect to a stingray device then no hope of privacy
