Absolutely NOT, Tom. There just is no point in debating facts with one who only wants to employ facts that either are invented (Gartner clearly contravenes Apple- and the penalties for lying- in spite of your coy, smart-aleck reply- require jail time of some sort or another) or invented out of thin air. And, the same experts that enunciated this exploits are the ones who enunciated them for M$ that M$ failed to act upon, leaving problems for us. Apple knew of at least some of these- and did not act- but one would hope now that they are more publically available- will respond. If not, guard your data and your mailing lists- and your phones.

There is no incentive to do otherwise. I presume your changing the subject to be a tacit admission that your assertion about "significant security failures" was horse shit. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** ************************************************************************* ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
