Short of Apple proxying and reviewing every byte sent out by an app, I just don’t see how this level of review is possible. It is like detecting virus or malware. Whether apple should have boasted about their review process or not is another matter.
There is no technology we have today, whether it is mobile, server side, Linux kernel or whatever that accepts random code from strangers (that is what you doing with pirated s/w) and detects intentionally written malicious code.
- josephcsible 5y agoThe point is that Apple pretends that there is such a thing, but that it only works if they have a walled garden.
- FireBeyond 5y agoSure. And what prevented Apple from telling those users their security had been compromised? Not much beyond a desire to not make a lie of their "curated, secure walled garden" PR.
