Anti-Chinese comment thrown in there for some reason. Is anyone surprised S. Korea is choosing Samsung's preferred OS, Android?

I don't see how it's anti-Chinese, if anything China is being pretty proactive for banning iPhones in secure environments. They all run closed-source software made by a PRISM-connected company in a FIVE-EYES nation. It should probably be the first thing to go when you're searching for wide-open gaps that foreign intelligence could/would abuse.
