iOS 10 years not a single serious malware case
 
Let's take a minute to congratulate Apple, that's quite the achievement.

Apple is always be safe and thats why its products are expensive and its worth it :) I love my Macbook pro cost me £1899 but well worth it :)

No, you need to infect more than 5 people to be considered serious.

Safety by obscurity, makes sense that malware writers target biggest market share.

Very different picture on the mobile market though

Load of tosh, there are easily enough MacOS devices to make it worth writing malware for, I might have agreed - and have been published saying so - back in the early 2000's. It's way more difficult to infect any Apple OS and the majority of devices are up to date, it's the up to date bit that's important.

Apart from Scoobynet being infected since 2000 with the Apple virus above. ;)

Given that there are currently over 1200 documented vulnerabilities in IOS, maybe Apple users are too dumb to notice because they believe it to be a feature and not malware? :lol1:
