Nothing is secure anymore, and it makes sense. The reason there are less apple hacks (anything I'm the ecosystem is susceptible) is by keeping things proprietary and their relative obscurity. There have been hacks on Mac's, iPhones, but also Linux, android, and of course windows.

I agree but I feel like the obscurity aspect faded out with the I'm a Mac and I'm a PC ads

By relative obscurity, I mean purely market share. By percentages, it's obscure, by raw numbers it's still popular with millions of users.

Yeah I mean I'm not talking about ReactOS. It's hard to measure the amount of malware per market share.

I imagine it's weighted unevenly dependent on it's user base and target demographic.
