that is absolutely false.
You bullshit so much without even a single cite to back up your bullshit
I'm not even going to bother to ask you to back up you brazen denials.
it's much easier to crack into an android phone than android.
Tell that to the people running pen tests who say otherwise.
it helps to actually understand how it's done rather than simply read linkbait headlines.
You always brazenly fabricate that you have hidden secret knowledge and yet whenever you are asked to back up that brazen fabrication, you fall silent.
That's good advice except that Apple adds at least one zero-day hole every >> single month into iOS (for years and years they've done that), so what he's >> doing by adding the latest release is adding another zero-day hole too. :)
false, and further demonstrates your lack of knowledge about security,
not just iphones.
Are you seriously brazenly denying Apple is told about an existing zero-day hole roughly about each and every month for the past few years that Apple decidedly and poignantly did not find - often it's Google who finds them?
Worse, iOS can _only_ update by updating the entire release, whereas at
least with Android he'd be able to update whatever file has the hole. :)
also false.
You have no clue how iOS updates if you claim that what even Apple will
tell you is the case, is the case, nospam.
some ios updates are a few megabytes, whereas the 'entire release' is a
few gigabytes. one of those is much smaller than the other. guess what
that means.
You don't know how Android updates and you don't know how iOS updates.
They're different.
And stop the bullshit about the "few gigabytes" because only a moron
doesn't know what I mean when I say the entire OS has to be updated.
You always play the moron role, nospam. Stop it.
It makes you look at stupid as you really are.
Seriously.
You _know_ exactly what I mean by iOS being monolithic.
You just pretend to be stupid.
Stop it.
keep up the good work. you don't want to say anything that's actually correct, now do you? that would ruin your stellar record of being wrong
about everything.
It's _only_ iOS that updates with that laughably primitive monolithic mechanism. No other common consumer operating system uses that outdated stone-age monolithic method of security and app updates but iOS.
*You _hate_ that fact, nospam*
But the fact you _hate_ that fact about iOS doesn't change that fact.
As we already said, it's well known (and we've discussed this in detail)
that a "properly configured" Android is _always_ safer than a properly
configured iOS ever can be.
that is not only false, but 'properly configured android' is very
difficult to do to do to where it's as secure as ios out of the box.
Again, I'm not even going to ask you anymore to back up your bullshit.
If nospam wants to disagree, he'll need to
provide cites since it's well known as proven in published pentests.
those mythical published pentests don't show what you think they do.
Again, you _hate_ the fact that Apple has so many zero-day holes that even Google finds them at about the rate of one per month year after year.
However, Android does allow lots of app functionality that iOS doesn't so
there are a few things that android can do that ios cannot and a bunch
of things that ios can do that android cannot.
There is _zero_ app functionality in iOS that isn't already in Android.
The _reason_ is obvious to all _intelligent_ people, nospam.
*Apple drastically restricts what the apps can do; Google can't.*
no device does everything in every situation.
It's _not_ Apple nor Google who provides most of the app functionality.
All Apple or Google do is provide the inherent _hardware_ functionality.
And even there, Apple drastically restricts what the hardware can do.
(e.g., FM radios, 3.5mm jacks, modern batteries, fast chargers, etc.)
As a direct result of those basic facts, the iPhone will _always_ lack the functionality of Android.
I get it that you _hate_ that fact nospam.
But the fact you hate the fact doesn't change the fact it is a fact.
unlike android, it's difficult to compromise an iphone (don't believe
the misleading linkbait headlines).
Then how come jailbreaks work nospam?
jailbreaking requires multiple exploits and physical possession of the
phone.
Bullshit. There are some iPhones that can't even be fixed to prevent jailbreaking because Apple's crappy hardware designs are unfixable nospam.
that's very different than a user being sent a link in a rogue email or
text message, which they tap.
The fact there are _plenty_ of zero-click exploits on iOS is what you hate.
You know why you hate that fact?
I do.
You _believe_ everything that Apple feeds you to believe.
And yet, Apple _never_ tells you the truth about iOS.
The truth is that zero-click exploits _abound_ on iOS.
You _hate_ that fact, nospam.
But the fact you hate the fact doesn't change that it _is_ a fact.
it helps to actually understand how things work, something you are
incapable of.
It's going to be hard for you to even get close to insulting my
intelligence when your IQ is scores of points below mine, nospam.
I think you should stop trying.
It's just _sad_ when you fall to the level of Alan Baker, nospam.
Stop it.
Be a man.
Accept the fact you have a rather low IQ and no education.
Just accept the facts nospam.
You can't insult me by bullshitting after saying that you have hidden
secret knowledge that even Apple doesn't claim to be the case.
You just can't.
There's nobody on this newsgroup even close but certainly it's not you.
BTW, I love a good clever insult - but your kindergarten attempts just show
you for what you are. If you're gonna insult me, you have to be smarter.
