Well, now that Arlen has entered the room, I suppose this conversation is over. So I guess It's now OK to broaden the discussion, and eventually
drag it far off-topic.
In an online article commenting on the recent Apple ad, it was hinted that videos of various objects being crushed by a hydraulic press has become
some sort of social media meme, perhaps a logical successor to "Will It Blend." Perhaps I lead a sheltered life, but I have not viewed other such videos. That would make Apple's ad a humorous (?!) parody of an existing meme. I'll bet the committee that dreamed it up had a great laugh.
I'm really overthinking this, but the more I overthink it, the concept of crushing traditional creativity tools to splinters and goo, before compressing them into an iPad, seems not the very best way to advertise
the iPad's creativity tools.
So Stephen Colbert's parody is a parody of a parody of a social media
meme. My brain hurts!

https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2022/10/apple-clarifies-security-update-policy-only-the-latest-oses-are-fully-patched/
Earlier this week, Apple released a document clarifying its terminology
and policies around software upgrades and updates. Most of the
information in the document isn't new, but the company did provide one clarification about its update policy that it hadn't made explicit
before: Despite providing security updates for multiple versions of
macOS and iOS at any given time, Apple says that only devices running
the most recent major operating system versions should expect to be
fully protected.
In other words, while Apple will provide security-related updates for
older versions of its operating systems, only the most recent upgrades
will receive updates for every security problem Apple knows about.
------
-- Does Android provide ALL security updates for every major version of software release?
-- Is there a reason not to upgrade to the newest major version of iOS
within a few weeks of release?
-- How old must an iPhone be before it can support the newest iOS major version release?

Not sure what you mean here, but iOS 15, 16 and 17 have received
several updates this year. IOS 15 supports back to the iphone 6
which is nearly nine years old.
According to the articles Arlen provided, Apple admits to only fully
supporting the current software version (17) with security updates.
Did you read the link Andrew/Arlen/whatever shared? Did you draw the
same conclusion as him?
What he says and what he can show/prove are often very different
things.
How are you claiming 15,16, 17 are supported?
Look here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201222
You can see that two or three have been updated at the same three
times this year alone: 22nd Jan, 5th Mar, 22nd Mar. Since the release
of iOS 17, iOS 16 has received eight updates and iOS 15 has received
three.
That's clear evidence to show that Apple are still maintaining (aka supporting) the current and previous two versions of iOS.

Yes, but we're supposed to ignore reality: 67% of devices run iOS 17,
19% run iOS 16, 8% run iOS 15 = 94% of devices are running the three
most recent versions of iOS. As you have shown, Apple is patching iOS 17 through iOS 15. And just like every operating system vendor, Apple
patches known bugs in the most recent releases of its operating systems
first and in older versions later. Naturally this means that if you are running an older version of an operating system, some bugs may not
be patched as quickly (or at all if it's a really old version). Again,
this isn't exclusive to Apple's operating systems. It's fairly standard practice in the industry. But badgolferman and his best bud, Arlen, definitely want to paint it as an Apple-exclusive thing.

Talk about completely whooshing the point. Do you even read?
FACT:

Not fact.
Apple can only fully support currently implemented architectures.
The fact is Apple does update 17, 16 & 15 regularly.

That last arsetechnica article makes an invalid point in comparing two 5
year old computers and claims the mac would have to be junked due to
company policy due to to no more support. What it forgets is that companies have policies of refreshing hardware on a 3, 4, 5 year cycle anyway regardless of whether it's supported or not.

Using those numbers the iPhone is *currently* exploited 1.64 times more
than is Android, so I stand corrected (last I had checked, admittedly a
while ago, it was much higher). I agree it's not ten times more.
I apologize.
Thanks to Jolly Roger for stating the truth about Apple products' safety.
While the numbers of known exploits can and will change almost daily, as
far as I've seen, the iPhone _always_ has far more exploits than does
Android - where my main point is that Apple never advertises these facts.
In fact, I did respond when you said Apple supports multiple releases.
I said that is a lie.
You don't even respond to people's point. You just repeat the same verbal diarrhoea on the same single narrow, boring thing.
You're obsessing on the word "fully" which is open to interpretation as I posted to badgolferman the other day.
Now, I do admit that Apple could be much more explicit by what it means
like Google and Samsung have done recently.
The *evidence* does remain that in the last year the three most recent ios versions are updated constantly.
every
operating system vendor, including Apple, fixes egregious bugs in every
release, even releases a decade old - but that does not mean they fix every >> bug they know of in that release - and - in fact - Apple specifically
states that they do NOT fix every bug they know of in any release but in
the latest release. That's just a fact, Chris.
What we don't know is why? For example, not all win11 bugs will update in win10 because they are different oses.
My desktop PC was built in 2009, Chris, and it kicks ass because it was
built by me with high end components of that day and age - and it has full >> operating system support for all bugs that Microsoft knows about.
Like every corporation allows their employers to build their own high spec PC. lol, no.

Isn't that bad enough?
Using those numbers the iPhone is *currently* exploited 1.64 times
more than is Android
Or the whole thing is a lot more nuanced than you'd like to pretend it
is...
I apologize. Thanks to Jolly Roger for stating the truth about Apple
products' safety.
While the numbers of known exploits can and will change almost daily,
as far as I've seen, the iPhone _always_ has far more exploits than
does Android - where my main point is that Apple never advertises
these facts.
But yesterday, "as far as [you'd] seen", you were claiming it was "ten
times" as many...
...so we know a lot about how much to trust your conclusions, don't
we?
Still wrong, since we haven't included other popular Android smartphones
in the equation.
His trolls are as weak as his intellect. All are easily proven false.

Apple zealots
Apple marketing
Apple's support

You call every fact
I'm logical. I based my assessments on documented facts.
Only cherry-picked facts. That's lying by omission. Plus many things you claim to be facts are actually opinions.
In fact, I did respond when you said Apple supports multiple releases.
I said that is a lie.
That's not the point of what I was saying in this thread and provided evidence of: Apple has historically supported iphones far, far longer than either Samsung or Google.
Let me repeat for your benefit as you cowardly snipped it before: https://endoflife.date/iphone Oldest models still supported: 6s/6s Plus Released: Sep 2015
No. major updates: 6
https://endoflife.date/samsung-mobile Oldest models still supported: Galaxy A01/A51* Released: Dec 2018
No. major updates: ?
* S20 models (from 2020) are no longer supported
https://endoflife.date/pixel Oldest models still supported: Pixel 5a Released: Aug 2021
No. major updates: 3
Apple always has more than 1.5 times the exploits that Android has.
It was "10 times more" only a couple of days ago.
You got caught lying yet again.
Currently Windows 10 and Windows 11 are fully supported (AFAIK).
1. That means all known Microsoft-caused bugs in Win10 are patched.
2. That means all known Microsoft-caused bugs in Win11 are patched.
3. Often they're the same bugs and the same patch - but not always.
And you know that how? Where's the evidence that every MS known bug is
fixed in Win11 and Win 10?
They were replaced roughly about every two years, as I recall.
They even replaced my keyboard and mouse and monitors as frequently.
Thanks for confirming that the arsetechnica article is based on a false premise: no corporation would keep supporting five-year old hardware regardless of whether MS/Apple does.
These numbers don't include vulnerabilities from all Android smartphone vendors, but do include all iPhones since only Apple makes them.
Any
rational adult will know that it is therefore inherently unfair to
exclude some Android vulnerabilities from some Android smartphone
vendors when comparing to iPhones. You know this. You just don't care
because of your very clear bias.
His trolls are as weak as his intellect. All are easily proven false.
You call every fact
Your so-called "fact" (that Apple's iPhones are exploited ten times as
much as Android phones" has been easily proven to be FALSE - a LIE -
which greatly upsets you.
You're emotional. You're not in a position of
rationality. So you resort to ad hominem slinging your little schoolyard insults. You're a pathetic mental & emotional weakling.
