Nice Job, Apple


And now for reason 4,502,603 while I will never own an iPhone (or a Mac, for that matter):

A very serious security flaw in Apple’s iOS mobile platform and its OS X desktop operating system has been discovered by security researchers and seemingly acknowledged by Apple. Using the flaw, hackers can build an app that is capable of stealing any and all passwords saved in Apple’s Keychain. Additionally, the same flaw can reportedly be used to steal passwords directly from third-party apps as well as Apple’s own apps.

But security doesn't matter and neither does privacy to 'Muricans, right? It's ok if the government spies on you, it's ok that people build crap products with zero security (e.g. "smart" devices that can be hacked that you will buy and put in your house!) and apparently that extends to your phone and computer too.

Oh, and the article claims that Apple was notified of the flaw last October and yet has failed to fix it as of now.

Good job 'Muricans -- keep buying from the company that has apparently sat on this for nearly nine months!
