Ahhh! The infallible Apple. Think apple is hack proof, virus proof? Think again.
Movie star Kirsten Dunst publicly criticized Tech giant Apple after nude photos she “privately” stored on online via Apple’s ICloud were stolen. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2740034/Kirsten-Dunst-leads-criticism-company-actively-investigates-claims-hundreds-stars-nude-images-stolen-iCloud.html
A major reason Apple hasn’t had as many hacking/virus issues (yet) is because of minimal computer market share. Yes….they dominate market share in other areas. True, their “walled community” reduces the risk of creating flawed/virus ridden software, however it is/was only a matter of time before more things like this start to happen. I don’t mean to pick on poor Apple, but simply to dispel a myth.
With regards to storing your data online in general, it has great benefits…and risks as well. Certainly don’t store your nakedness online….unless you don’t mind if others see you! Might provide good publicity though.
This post is prompting me to broach many topics. Data security, fault tolerance, indirect marketing strategy, inevitability and myth….Butt, I will keep it short and let you follow your desired rabbit hole. The main point of my post is simply to identify that nothing is perfect…not even Kirsten Dunst. 😉
