/e/ is the direct opposite of a privacy or security focused OS. It doesn't provide bare minimum standard privacy and security patches while setting an inaccurate Android security patch level. It lags many months behind on patches even on devices where they're the least behind. It's typically years behind on kernel, driver, firmware and major OS updates. It doesn't keep the standard privacy and security protections intact and lagging behind on OS updates means not having the current ones. It sends user data to OpenAI and other third parties without consent.

/e/ and Murena have repeatedly claimed providing strong privacy and security mainly benefits criminals and claim devices doing it are mainly used by criminals. Here's one example of many:

An iPhone is a hardened device with drastically better privacy and security than an /e/ device. It would fall under the claims from /e/ and Murena about hardened devices.
