This site stopped being for actual hackers at least 5 years ago, maybe more. These people are the opposite of hackers, literally begging for and defending walled gardens and closed systems. What a joke this community has become over the years.

Or could it be that the parents of most people who were live on this website 15, or even 10 years ago were not using computers, and the parents of the younger generation on this website are using computers?

So maybe people want their parents to avoid getting scammed or having their money stolen from their accounts.

Clearly if you aren’t personally capable of auditing an entire OS you deserve the security holes you get.

Which sorta makes me wonder why these “actual hackers” even bother to care about iOS.
