   Hi Alan Baker,   
      
   Notice the factually logical adult assessment below that:   
   o *Apple phones are _more risky_ than Android phones*   
      
   It's interesting that you apologists have no adult response to facts.   
   a. Adults comprehend facts   
   b. Adults form logical assessments   
      
   As an adult, I posted facts:   
   1. I posted a subject of temporal & on-topic significance   
   2. I backed up that post with numerous timely & factual cites   
   3. I responded to every on-topic objection - with _more_ on-topic facts.   
      
   The fact is Apple is angry at Google for exposing their imaginary security.   
   o Apple angry at Google for bursting iPhone security myth bubble   
      
      "Apple's statement shows little recognition of the fact that the only   
   reason more iPhones were not infected were not because iPhone security was   
   superior, but simply that the attack itself was relatively targetted."   
      
      "It has been pretty clear, from government-sponsored attacks, that   
   iPhones are as vulnerable as any other smartphone, and that they may   
   actually be more risky, due to giving users the impression that the   
   handsets are safer than they actually are, and by making it more difficult   
   to detect infections, as malware-scanning software is impossible to   
   install."   
      
      "While Apple appears to be attacking Google's Project Zero team, their   
   post contains no apology for the vulnerability to end-users, including the   
   vulnerable population in China.   
      
      "Google was however clear that iPhones were vulnerable because Apple was   
   negligent, saying:   
       'The root causes I highlight here are not novel and are often   
   overlooked: we'll see cases of code which seems to have never worked, code   
   that likely skipped QA or likely had little testing or review before being   
   shipped to users.'"   
      
       "While Apple claims they will "never stop our tireless work to keep our   
   users safe", it seems more likely the company will never stop defending   
   their ill-deserved (as reality repeatedly demonstrates) reputation for   
   safety and privacy."
