I’ve reluctantly come to the view that Apple is the best bet for a consumer to get a somewhat reasonable (price notwithstanding) compromise between hardware vertical integration and software that offers substantial bug bounties and large market incentives to not allow bad vulnerabilities to sit for too long. With deep enough pockets to hang tough if needed in various situations.

- coderatlarge 2y agoI completely agree about the buggy bloated software but all I’m saying is that it’s the best bet compared to actual consumer alternatives which are generally a frankenmix of the lowest cost components sourced from the lowest cost vendor with minimum effort spent to ensure and maintain any semblance of security.
