      XPost: misc.phone.mobile.iphone, comp.sys.mac.system, comp.sys.mac.advocacy       XPost: comp.mobile.ipad       From: andrew@spam.net              Given how primitive the Apple ecosystem has recently been shown to be...              Let me see if I understand why you rather ignorant religious       fundamentalists Apple nutjobs completely excuse Apple for this shockingly       huge security hole, Jolly Roger, which has existed for a very long time,       even as Apple only touts safety and security - Apple never tests for it.              To wit...       1. You likely understand that this hole has existed for a decade.       2. You perhaps realize Apple did not find it - security researchers did.       3. You even maybe realize that three million apps are said to be exposed.       4. You may realize one of the three CVE's allows complete & full control.       5. You may realize that essentially every single Apple owner is exposed.       6. You may even understand that's billions of exposed Apple devices.       7. And you may be aware that estimates are that it's three million apps.       8. Every single one of which is installed ONLY on Apple devices alone.       9. Meaning it's purely the Apple ecosystem which allowed this to happen.              Given all those facts above, you then excuse Apple as you say that Apple       should tout this imaginary safety and security that, you say, Apple doesn't       even bother to test for (which they could have done, since others did it)?              You're fine with this primitive ecosystem being touted as safe & secure,       when it's not (and worse, you say Apple shouldn't even care to test it)?              Really?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
