Macs don't get viruses, unless you download them yourself.
My kids download a lot of crap games and apps, many of which have this "Mac Helper" and other similar garbage bundled along with it. Seems I'm constantly trying to search out this stuff and remove it.
Parents, be aware of what your kids download!
“Macs don’t get viruses, unless you download them yourself.”
Fake news.
That’s pretty much how most computers get malware to begin with... They most commonly rely on users to provide a root user/admin authority to install by faking themselves as something legitimate or hiding inside a real executable.
I’ve been a Mac user for almost 30 years. It took that long for me to get a virus!
And all it does is pop up every few hours and beeps ... no porn, no re-direction.
Yep. Windows users are use to it. Mac users are led to for years saying it’s the OS fault of it gets malware. Too bad they didn’t spend their time educating users instead of lying to them.
