Really? So if someone sends you an infected file and you pass it along to your other non Apple friends that’s OK with you?
That right there is complete security mismanagement. I used to fire my security people for doing such irresponsible behavior.
Going out on the internet or any network without protection is like going into a Saigon whore house without a box of rubbers.
You clearly don’t know much about Macs, and firing a Mac user for doing what we all do would make you a very irresponsible manager.
I clearly said that I don’t use antivirus or antimalware. Macs are UNIX variants, they have lots of built in network security. Not a packet leaves my Macs without me being able to know exactly where it goes. Bet you don’t maintain that level of authenticity on your end.
My point was that no Windows user can even comprehend running a PC without antivirus - and yet Mac professionals don’t even think about it. What does that say about vulnerability?
“Going out on the internet or any network without protection is like going into a Saigon whore house without a box of rubbers.”
When using a Mac, you don’t need that protection if you’re not clearly agreeing to get penetrated by whatever strange & shady entity wants to f*** your system.
“if someone sends you an infected file and you pass it along to your other non Apple friends that’s OK with you?”
It’s not my responsibility to screen every file for every potential vulnerability possible on every system that might eventually receive it.
It IS my responsibility to run a system that inherently doesn’t swallow everything that comes its way.
