You seem to be engaging in magical thinking by imagining that a sandbox can prevent all malware. No serious security researcher would support this claim.

- Apocryphon 5y agoiOS provides many more security protections beyond sandboxing.
- zepto 5y agoSo what? It’s clearly not enough on its own.
- Apocryphon 5y agoWhen has it been not clearly enough?
- zepto 5y agoAre you suggesting that iOS provides perfect security? If you think that, I am not going to bother to do the googling for you.
- Apocryphon 5y agoIt provides far better security than Apple critics believe. Apple haters do not trust the company’s quality of engineering.
- zepto 5y agoSo you avoided the question. Are you suggesting that iOS provides perfect security?
- Apocryphon 5y agoFar closer to perfect security than anti-Apple skeptics such as yourself would claim.
- zepto 5y agoHow many security flaws are there, and when do you anticipate that they will all be eliminated? If you can’t answer these questions, then you can’t make any claim about it being close to perfect.
- Apocryphon 5y agoHow many of those security flaws are mitigated by App Store curation, and how many of those flaws are already being let through? At this point we are both asking each other to prove negatives now, as productive as that is. I think we can both agree to disagree.
- zepto 5y agoWeird move. By asking those questions of me, you have proven my point: You have shown that you don’t know anything about how many security flaws there are or how many are protected from by App Store curation, so your claims up to this point about security have simply been dishonest. This isn’t about agreeing to disagree. It’s that you’ve just been making up false claims this whole time.
- Apocryphon 5y agoIf your point is that App Store curation is insufficient, then I heartily agree with you. https://www.ft.com/content/914ce719-f538-4bd9-9fdf-42220d857d5e https://www.ft.com/content/914ce719-f538-4bd9-9fdf-42220d857... https://www.wired.com/story/apple-app-store-malware-click-fraud/ https://www.wired.com/story/apple-app-store-malware-click-fr... https://appleinsider.com/articles/22/01/11/wordle-clones-further-illustrate-the-curation-problem-in-the-app-store https://appleinsider.com/articles/22/01/11/wordle-clones-fur...
