- pompino 3y agoThanks, but I like my example, even if you find it inconvenient. I don't find it strange at all that the most popular operating system gets exploited the most. Luckily, Windows is not in the top 5 for reported vulnerabilities. https://www.cvedetails.com/top-50-products.php https://www.cvedetails.com/top-50-products.php
- pb7 3y agoApple sells billions of iPhones because grandma can’t accidentally install ransomware or a key logger by clicking on the wrong link. There’s nothing you can do to rewrite Windows’ multi-decade reputation for this.
- 12345hn6789 3y agoApple sells billions of iPhones because they're the"cool" phone brand, not because Young people think Grandma needs to stop viruses.
- pb7 3y agoIt’s the “cool” phone brand because it’s a quality product beloved by hundreds of millions of diverse people worldwide. Not having to deal with basic security issues is one of the thousands of reasons why.
- pompino 3y agoThis thread is about Apple's poor decisions, and general bad track record of putting money over user freedom. They are in the wrong for preventing users from installing apps of their choice on a device they paid for. You defending them with a ridiculous talking point about scary viruses and grandma doesn't work anymore, sorry!
