You're not making sense. Plus Apple has a history of being incompetent and slow on this.
- coldtea 5y ago>Plus Apple has a history of being incompetent and slow on this Have they, really? Just because you find this instance here and there of such a story where they were, doesn't mean they have a history of being incompetent and slow on this (the same way someone who hit 99% of their three-pointers doesn't have a history of being an awful shooter). That's how they fare long term: https://www.pandasecurity.com/en/mediacenter/mobile-security/android-more-infected-than-ios/ https://www.pandasecurity.com/en/mediacenter/mobile-security...
- smoldesu 5y agoApple's bug bounty is notoriously slow to respond, to the point that it has posed legitimate security concerns in the past: particularly their rhetoric around Thunderspy amused me. https://habr.com/en/post/579714/ https://habr.com/en/post/579714/ https://thunderspy.io https://thunderspy.io
- QuizzicalCarbon 5y agoHow can we reasonably say Apple is moving slowly to fix bugs when we don’t know how much work is going on behind the scenes? A slow response can just be a slow response.
- smoldesu 5y agoI can reasonably say it because all of their competitors have less cash, yet many of them respond faster than Apple does.
- simondotau 5y agoIs this not a potential Sharpshooter fallacy? Are you sure that we aren't mainly hearing about bounties when Apple doesn't handle them smoothly and not so much when they are handled smoothly? Or to put it another way, when you poll people who complain Apple is notoriously slow to respond, don't be surprised if your conclusion is that Apple is notoriously slow to respond.
