Why are iOS and macOS so bad at prompting the user to install patches? I went to check if Apple had released any patches for iLeakage and found there’s a massive security update from yesterday sitting and waiting. One day isn’t so bad, but if I hadn’t stumbled on it I wonder how long it would have taken. I’m more regularly made aware of patches from blogs and toots or other security software like Duo prompting me than from the OS itself.
