Bullshit. This story is up to now not more than very cheap fake news.

The story may or may not be bullshit for all I know, but it's known to all (who read the news) that Apple has published they only fully patch iOS 16.
So if you have any older iOS than 16, your phone will be insecure.
Same with macOS 13. No other macOS is fully patched but macOS 13.
If you don't like that, then take it up with Apple who published their support policy, as most Apple owners can't believe what Apple says.

I want to see if YOUR understanding is correct...
...and indeed to see if you can even FIND their policy.
Because if you can't, it means you're just going off of hearsay.

I knew you were stupid when you didn't know anything about Apple. https://screenrant.com/apple-product-security-update-lifespan/
You're too stupid to even understand this but I post for others. https://support.apple.com/guide/deployment/about-software-updates-depc4c80847a/
But an idiot like you just wants to not believe anything Apple
says.
"The support document notes that only the latest releases
provide full
protection from security vulnerabilities. "Because of
dependency on
architecture and system changes to any current version of macOS
(for
example, macOS 13), not all known security issues are addressed
in previous
versions (for example, macOS 12)," the Apple document says.
Essentially,
this means that the security updates Apple issues to older
operating system
versions are not fully protected. Using that logic, the iOS
15.7.1 update
may leave security vulnerabilities unaddressed that have been
patched in
the iOS 16.1 updates. This means that although Apple issues
security
updates to older operating systems, users should only expect
their devices
to be secure during the typical five to six-year software
upgrade support
window."
We're done as I am disgusted by people who are as clueless as
you are.
All you want to do is argue by saying Apple never said what
Apple said.

The last iOS 15 update was 15.7.6 on May 18, 2023, only about two weeks
ago.
Remember, there are still millions of people still using iPhones that
can't be updated to iOS 16, especially in poorer countries, but even in
the U.S. there are still a lot of older iPhones still being used.

(your numbers, with no evidence to support it) is not even 1%.

Don't worry. Nobody believes anything unless it comes from your mouth.

Nobody knows anything relevant about this fake news/propaganda including
you. You are a chatterbox.

No, please continue. You seem to know a lot about apple.
Some of us have bought their products and would like to hear
from you.

So you are disputing that millions is less than 1% of a billion?
Which makes it pretty obvious who IS believable here.

Apple is still issuing updates for iOS 15 so they will patch this vulnerability now that they are aware of it.
The last iOS 15 update was 15.7.6 on May 18, 2023, only about two weeks
ago. This new exploit was only found a couple of days ago so give Apple
a little time to work on this. Issuing updates is not that fast because
of the testing involved with every update to ensure that it doesn't
break something else.

So what.
That's meaningless in terms of whether iOS 15 is fully patched.
It's not.
