It's no longer shocking that Arlen still can't provide a source for his
made-up words he attributes to Apple. Arlen is ever the shit-talking
child.

Obvious lie. 🤣

In reality, *Hemidactylus* was the first person to mention Apple's RSR
updates on this newsgroup in 2023:

<https://groups.google.com/g/misc.phone.mobile.iphone/c/VdyhxbaZ9gg/m/sgqXuyhtAQAJ>

Hey jackass, I purposely posted my OP to the misc.phone.mobile.iphone group
as that’s where it was relevant. Look at the title “iOS 17.0.3 has
dropped”. You masturbatorily megaphoned yourself by adding comp.mobile.ipad
and comp.sys.mac.advocacy.

Then you reply to Dorper’s post on this thread on Jolly Roger’s “iOS 17.0.3
does not throttle & Instagram's app update fixes overheating”. Proof you
are exhibiting dysfunctional symptoms and are totally unhinged due to your
psychotic obsession with Apple that is addling your brain. Given the amount
of output across groups meth binging cannot be ruled out. Check yourself
into some program that prevents your access to the internet and to whatever
chemical stimulants cause you to spew such worthless repetitive bilge in
excess.

The issue isn't about if there were 17 zero-day exploits. The issue is that
you say that this is 3x higher than the number of exploits for Android. That
is what everyone is having a problem with. You do ignore vulns that aren't
zero days which isn't fair because they still are risks for users of older
devices and people who have not updated. And for Open Source projects the
term "zero-day" doesn't really make sense.

The zero day exploits published by Android this year:
CVE-2023-4211 (Mali GPU Driver, ARM Holdings)
CVE-2023-35674 (Android, Google)
CVE-2023-4863 (libwebp, Google)
CVE-2023-26083 (Mali GPU Driver, ARM Holdings)
CVE-2023-2136 (Skia, Google)
CVE-2021-29256 (Mali GPU Driver, ARM Holdings)
CVE-2022-22706 (Mali GPU Driver, ARM Holdings)
CVE-2021-22600 (Linux, Linus Torvalds)
CVE-2022-0847 "Dirty Pipe" (Linux, Linus Torvalds)
CVE-2022-38181 (Mali GPU Driver, ARM Holdings)
CVE-2023-21096 (Android, Google)
CVE-2023-20963 (Android, Google)

So that is 12 "zero-days" in AOSP alone.

I believe that you own a Samsung. In a year, Google found 18 *hardware*
"zero-days" unique to Samsung devices:

https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/google-finds-18-zero-day-vuln
erabilities-in-samsung-exynos-chipsets/

That brings the total # of "zero-days" for a Samsung device in a year to
around 30.

False, and you've never been able to provide a source for your made-up
bullshit numbers. 🙂

Sounds great.

Never used it enough in the early days to consider adding the other
features. I recall a period when they were promoting this and that on a
continuous basis - a bit of a noisy period that I didn't pay very much
attention to.

Proton is my anonymous e-mail for those times when I really need such.
About 2 times per year. 3? Maybe.

It's not just you that has that issue with ES. I've had that happen
multiple times, and there's a thread in e-s.support about it. Hopefully
a fix will come soon.

My guess is IP fingerprinting, but I'll look it up.
