If you think a website is unsafe, don’t open it.

Ahh yes, back to the dark ages of the internet where just clicking the wrong link can completely compromise your system.

Thanks crapple and its useful idiots.

Yes, I realize that.

You do realize that this kind of attack happened after spectre and meltdown? Apple knew of the risks, but decided to ignore them.

Yes, and Apple decided to do the same thing knowing the risks.

"Intel did it!" is not a panacea for apple; it makes things worse for them.
