From the article:
> Apple said: “Security researchers agree iPhone is the safest, most secure consumer mobile device on the market.”
- zepto 5y agoExactly. It says nothing about their phones being secure. Only that they are more secure than their competitors.
- commoner 5y agoThat's a stretch.
- zepto 5y agoNo, it’s what they said. Saying they claimed their phones to be secure is just a lie.
- commoner 5y agoIt's a stretch to argue that "safest, most secure consumer mobile device on the market" is not a claim of security. The average reader would not interpret that statement as you did, which makes the statement misleading.
- zepto 5y ago> is not a claim of security. It is a claim of relative security but it is a lie to say that Apple claimed their device is secure. >The average reader would not interpret that statement as you did I think most people can read the statement for what it is - a comparison to other devices on the market.
- cblconfederate 5y agoSo it is fair to say that iPhones are insecure
- zepto 5y agoNo - that would obviously be just as false as claiming they are secure.
- cblconfederate 5y agothey can't both be false
- zepto 5y agoOf course they can. They are categorical statements. The reality is not absolute.
- cblconfederate 5y agoby that logic, of course they can't. The statement that they can is categorical
- zepto 5y agoWhat you just said is gibberish because it ignores the context of what we are talking about. You are imagining that computer security is absolute. A system cannot be 100% secure or 100% insecure. To claim either is obviously false. Systems can be relatively more or less secure than other system.
