A massive analysis of hundreds of millions of devices has revealed that iOS is much more prone to attack than Android.

    This article reads a bit weird. The report itself is linked: https://www.lookout.com/threat-intelligence/report/q3-2024-mobile-landscape-threat-report-copy

    But as the article says, it’s mainly saying iPhones fell to phishing attacks twice as often. But that isn’t about the phone or OS it’s about the users, and I am in no way surprised that iOS users fall to phishing attacks more often.

      Yeah, that’s how I read it. Its not that iphones are less secure (whether that’s true or not), but not surprised that the users are objectively more prone to attack (which IMO, is the point of the article)

      Feels a little like a clickbait indeed
