> If you are at threat of being targeted by NSO Group or Zerodium enabled attacks, you are already on the radar of a country's Law Enforcement/Interior Ministry/Dept of Homeland Security/Intelligence Community and any attacks on your phone are the least of your worries.

Ah, you mean social engineering attacks and more powerful attacks relying completely outside of the cyberspace (to say more bluntly, which perfectly fits the case here, "in the meatspace"), right?

In terms of broadly-understood virtualization, there's always FPGA with its possibility to spawn multiple number of completely independent softcores. These days some FPGAs with enough computing power for well-optimized security-critical part of general-purpose computing (messaging, web browsing, maybe DSP - not computation like neural models) have fully open-source bitstream synthesis tools.

BTW, thanks a ton for letting me know about the unpatched vulnerability in Alpine. I'll talk to the pmOS guys about patching it.
