   Hi Dorper,   
      
   I feel sorry for you.   
   I really do.   
      
   I think it's revealing that you think the clarification of what a zero-day   
   bug is (compared to the thousands upon thousands of "regular" bugs) is   
    "words... words... words"   
      
   It's like explaining to a dog the metric tensor in Einstein's equations.   
      
   To you, the fact iOS has 17 zero-day holes is the same as the tens of   
   thousands (who knows how many!) "bugs" that Apple found in iOS software.   
      
   Who is that ignorant?   
      
   You need to stop defending Apple to the death, Dorper.   
   You need to put your adult hat on and distuingish between types of bugs.   
   a. You need to understand that 17 zero-day bugs is a lot,   
   b. While thousands (upon thousands) of regular bugs is just normal.   
      
   You don't understand that yet.   
   Until you do - no adult conversation is possible with you.   
      
   I will simply restate my point of view based on the facts of the matter.   
   a. iOS has two to three times the zero-day holes, and, worse,   
   b. iOS has ten times the _exploited_ zero-day holes.   
      
   That's bad.   
   Really bad.   
      
   The reason is patently obvious why iOS is so horribly insecure though.   
   But you have to understand how iOS is built, tested & released to know why.   
   --   
   My goal is to bring an adult conversation to the child-like Apple   
   newsgroups in terms of helping participants understand what they should.
