Like I said, no system is perfect. But let’s be real — which OS model is likely to better secure them and limit the damage? It’s objectively clear it’s iOS. iCloud backups make recovering from the damage much easier too. Backing up MacOS or Windows is still not easy.

Even if they installed a malicious app on iOS, the damage is still limited because of the security model of iOS.

I definitely understand the concern of centralizing everything around one provider, but I’m just pointing out that these systems win because, on the whole, they are a better experience for users. It’s why Facebook wins, and it’s why closed systems continue to crush open ones.

There's a bit too much going on in your response, so...I greatly disagree on many levels and I feel this statement is a good lead as to why.
