   Hi Tyrone,   
      
   Happy New Year!   
      
   Thank you for understanding that the point of these threads on these Apple   
   newsgroups are to better understand the truth, outside of Apple propaganda.   
      
   To put it bluntly, the (rather brilliant) Apple propaganda is that Apple   
   products, particularly iOS, are harder to use because they're "more safe".   
      
   That is, Apple's (rather brilliant) propaganda is the reason every   
   interaction outside of the Apple ecosystem is handcuffed, is, for "safety".   
      
   Yet, there is no safety.   
      
   So, as we proved in exquisite detail in a variety of recent threads, there   
   is no mobile device that is less secure than Apple iOS mobile devices are.   
      
   In most measures, iOS security is atrocious, and yet, in other measures   
   Android security is atrocious - but in the end, they're about the same.   
      
   Given nobody who is a security professional would ever claim iOS is "more   
   safe", then my assessment is you gave away everything... for nothing.   
      
   Not only did you give away interoperability for "safety" that you never   
   got, but you gave away the ability to do zillions of useful functionality   
   that all other platforms easily do, for that "safety" that you never got.   
      
   You gave away everything...   
   For nothing.   
      
   But when you realize WHY you gave away everything and got nothing in   
   return, then you realize WHY Apple "claims" they locked up iOS "for   
   safety".   
      
   Q: Does anyone on this ng know why Apple "claims" they locked up iOS   
      "for safety" and yet, Apple has never actually delivered that safety?   
   A: ?   
      
   HINT in the references in the sig.
