- tinus_hn 8y agoBoth Mac OS X and Windows NT have pretty weak security protecting local users against each other. Privilege escalation attacks that require access to the console are usually discounted as unlikely.
- faslkfjsdlkfj 8y agoThis is an unsubstantiated claim. Certainly, there have been a fair amount, but not for lack of effort on the OS developers' parts. It can always be better, and cutting edge, modern OS designs are superior, but it's not like the foundations of NT/Darwin are completely rotten.
