@eff @evacide @TechCrunch I'm pretty sure Apple would like it if everyone believed that there's no such thing as Spyware on Apple products. I'd be willing to bet that they'd rather bury any knowledge of these problems even existing than even so much as formally admit that MacOS and iOS can in fact get Spyware.
