OMG! See this is exactly what Apple said works happen if they were forced to slow side loading. I hope you are all happy!
“Checks notes”: Side loading has not been enabled yet…
… oh
I’m sure they’ll make sideloading a miserable enough experience for all involved (but not miserable enough to make it obvious that it’s in bad faith and incur the wrath of the EU) that both users and devs will just opt not to do it
A trojan you have to install yourself (by accepting a malicious MDM profile) is not a trojan…
That’s not true. A Trojan is a virus disguised as something else to trick your victim. Am I the only one that messed with their friends with ones like sub7 and stuff like 30 years ago? Lol
No, he is correct. A program is only similar to (not equal to) a trojan if it is a corporate MDM installed, knowing the risks, since it is not intentionally corrupting files or causing harm. Spyware, yes, but not trojan.
This is an actual interesting article that they just ruined with SEO spam links to ‘the best <whatever>’ all over it. Sigh.
do you need some help setting up ad blockers?
It’s literally in the text of the article. I’m using both ublock origin and a pihole here.
huh, i can’t see it
I think they mean the links to other articles:
One of the reasons many people pick one of the best iPhones over their Android counterparts is due to security.
Which, well, I dunno how that’s so bad. It’s just linking to other articles on the same site 🤷
I’m sorry for the Apple users, but Apple devices are so restricted, why would you even want to use one?
It all comes down to what you use the device for. I know the apple hate is strong but there’s not a whole lot of different use cases going in to either one other than the ecosystems. Also most android fanatics haven’t even used an iPhone to comment on anything. They do anyway though.
I have used an iPhone for 2 years and getting an Android 6 months ago was a breath of fresh air. I could install any app I wanted, including custom launchers, sms, TTS, etc. I didn’t have to sign into a MAGMA account to use the device. I had a headphone jack. I could add a network speed tracked in the status bar. I could actually implement DNS adblocking and it worked. I could install Firefox extensions - a huge thing that’s 36% of the reason I’m not going back to iPhone.
As a developer: superior hardware, years ahead of Android in terms of performance. Android is way too limited in what you can do with it as a developer.
Sorry, what? Are wee talking about different operating systems? Apple is way more hostile to developers, as I described in my other comment.
this is why i took all banking apps off my phone. the websites work fine anyway.
