You will only be as secure as Apple wants you to be.
- eyelidlessness 4y agoHuh? Edit: I don’t understand, the “huh?” is 100% sincere. Apple is releasing security updates, not withholding them. What control are they exerting here?
- hnfong 4y agoIn a sense the GP is correct since iOS/macOS is proprietary software and the end user can't just fix a security issue themselves... but this applies to all proprietary software in general.
- eyelidlessness 4y agoI still don’t understand the complaint. Apple released a security patch, they didn’t decide to withhold it for some nebulous purpose. I also release security patches for software I maintain, am I deciding what security my users get to enjoy by doing so?
