this is why i took all banking apps off my phone. the websites work fine anyway.
I’m sorry for the Apple users, but Apple devices are so restricted, why would you even want to use one?
This is an actual interesting article that they just ruined with SEO spam links to ‘the best <whatever>’ all over it. Sigh.
do you need some help setting up ad blockers?
It’s literally in the text of the article. I’m using both ublock origin and a pihole here.
huh, i can’t see it
I think they mean the links to other articles:
One of the reasons many people pick one of the best iPhones over their Android counterparts is due to security.
Which, well, I dunno how that’s so bad. It’s just linking to other articles on the same site 🤷
OMG! See this is exactly what Apple said works happen if they were forced to slow side loading. I hope you are all happy!
“Checks notes”: Side loading has not been enabled yet…
… oh
I know I’m earning this downvoted spam, but…
This requires you to use enterprise-oriented features that blast you with warnings telling you not to do it. After you ignore those warnings they can install anything they want on your device.
This is basically sideloading for corporations.
And it is exactly an example of what will happen (and be quite common) if regular sideloading and alternative app stores with no Apple validation are forced on us.
It’s a problem on Android, already. Banking apps disable themselves if your device is rooted due to malicious Trojans that exploit that feature to gain easy access to your data.
I’m sure they’ll make sideloading a miserable enough experience for all involved (but not miserable enough to make it obvious that it’s in bad faith and incur the wrath of the EU) that both users and devs will just opt not to do it
A trojan you have to install yourself (by accepting a malicious MDM profile) is not a trojan…
That’s not true. A Trojan is a virus disguised as something else to trick your victim. Am I the only one that messed with their friends with ones like sub7 and stuff like 30 years ago? Lol

No, they’re wrong. They were wrong as soon as they said a Trojan you have to install yourself, which is exactly how it works. It can’t work if you weren’t tricked into installing it. The Trojan doesn’t have to cause harm it’s called a Trojan based on the way it has to be deployed.
