Which may, unfortunately, speak to what management thinks about the security/quality of the macOS codebase.
I wouldn't be surprised the recent and upcoming exploits lead Apple to increase iOS dominance over its future product pipeline.
- infamouscow 9y agoApple's financial reports and behavior the last few years make it clear their priorities are not with the Mac, but with iOS. For better or worse, Apple is a smartphone company that happens to make computers on the side.
- yeukhon 9y ago> For better or worse, Apple is a smartphone company that happens to make computers on the side. Apple makes computer and operating system way before it entered the mobile market. The first part is right, but your second part is inaccurate historically.
- apecat 9y agoYeah but to phrase it pointedly, to what degree does Apple consider Macs to be basically development kits for iOS apps? It's very clear that iPhones make the big cash.

- yeukhon 9y agoThis is stupid though. macOS is the operating system for its flagship desktop/laptop devices. The lack of bug bounty on macOS (or even an invite one) seems really bizarre.
