Not True but Mac's are less prone to viruses and other forms of nasty files that may want to attack your computer.

Eh, yeah. And since Mac is getting more popular, more viruses are going to be made and tailored to hit Macs. |

Very true.

"And since Mac is getting more popular, more viruses are going to be made and tailored to hit Macs."
That's not how viruses work in UNIX based systems like OS X. It's hard to pull of a privilege escalation as a malicious application. |

@sadboys
he never told me
he just texted me "WTF MY MAC IS DOING WEIRD THINGS" and "I THINK MY COMPUTER HAS A VIRUS"
i came over to his house and sure enough it was a RAT
he never told me anything other than "i just tried to install a program and it was a virus!"

Mac offers allot less freedom and allot more spyware in exchange for that added security |
|
|
@reset
How we you able to identify if it was a RAT without looking at the file origin of the RAT,

|

Sounds like a mad up story to be honest
"less freedom"
You realize OS X has full UNIX capabilities, right? That means it's as free as a Linux distro.
Please stop bandwagon posting |

Saying Mac's can't get viruses is like saying you won't ever die because you eat healthy |
|
|
"Google"
Except I never said they don't exist. I'm saying your story is made up |

@sadboys
yes because i'd totally make up a story to tell a troll on the internet
всё хорошо) |
|
|
Except I'm not a troll, why is it that people call people trolls just because they don't agree with what is being posted |

There are a lot of hackers and once they start targeting Mac, you'll realize how vulnerable Mac really is.
