So what is it? Do the black hatters ignore OS X because of its marketshare, or are they intent on nailing OS X because of Apple's arrogance?
Up until this point, they have ignored it, but starting about mid-2006, there is now a truly concerted effort to target Mac users. Macking, until now has always been a disjointed effort, with the feeling that such a thin market share was hardly worth the time and effort. I'm not just shooting in the dark here. My area of expertise is data security, and I know that many black hatters are salivating to be the one that brings Apple to it's knees. They may or may not succeed. And before anyone thinks I'm some PC shill, I own and use a MacBook regularly. I also hold several MS certifications and a few other vendor neutral certs. I like the Mac OS, and I do believe that it is inherently more secure than Windows. I also run several distros of Linux. In short, I like computers and believe that all OS's have something to offer depending on the consumer. I also know that any OS is capable of being hacked, and the attitude of "it can't happen to me" is extremely misguided. Apple seems to be fostering this attitude by whistling past the graveyard, and even worse, basically daring anyone to have a go at them. That is what I would call "bad joujou".
