Oh boy, that article you quoted CuinCI was so bad, I had to read it twice just to believe it. Unfortunate that such bad articles even get placed into Globe & Mail, which only spreads the misinformation. Also interesting is the biased source which kept being referenced.
This is what happens when someone who is in search for that BIG NEWS FLASH, on a BIG HOT TOPIC, ends up writing an article on what they know nothing about.
As an interesting side-note, I clicked on the link to that virus checker at the end of the article.
Very humours how that checker is warning me that:
We have checked the version of Java installed on your computer and discovered that you are running a vulnerable version.
Oh really? That's interesting, I don't even have Java installed, or even enabled through my browser, just in case I did ever install it.
And you wonder why the media & Mac-illiterates are all over the place with this nonsense....
