This doesnt happen though. Look at the state of web apps accessed through your computers browser - there is no issues with quality if you want a customer base.

My computer browser is indeed fine, but my mother's -- is an entirely different story. I am really happy I can still get her an iPad these days.

Denying the existence of someone's mother is quite rude.

Can I ask what's "egregious" about my comment?

an I not say that my mom, albeit being older than me, does not need her son's protection from malware and certainly does not need Apple to tell her what's right, just because she's older?

Is ageism permitted on HN?

My mom exists, she's 74, she never had a malware problem in her life.

Maybe she's smarter than us all...
