Nope, it's correct.

No Jolly Roger. You're dead wrong.

Q: *Why are you dead wrong?*
A: Because you are ignorant.

Apple's not going to advertise they have twice to three times as many
zero-day holes as Android has, silly.

It's not in Apple's DNA to tell the truth. (Witness the recent half a
billion dollar settlement just this week for Tim Cook's recent lies.)

There are very many zero-click exploits in both macOS & iOS, JR.
Most of them are in Apple's shitty kernel & many in the even worse webkit.

In fact, just the known exploits of iOS are ten times that of Android.

There have been *plenty* of zero-day zero-click no-interaction holes
in Apple's operating systems

 
There have been plenty of zero days in *all* operating systems

Idiot. These are Apple newsgroups, Jolly Roger.

You're like nospam was, Jolly Roger, before his contract with Apple expired
(his job was to contradict EVERY SINGLE FACT about Apple products).

Not only does iOS have ten times more exploits than Android, but iOS and
macOS also have more zero-click exploits (& getting worse every year).

For you to claim (as you did) that only Apple doesn't have zero-click
exploits shows how much of a fanatical nut case you are, since nobody who
isn't a fool would claim like you did above that Apple doesn't have them,
particularly in the crappy webkit and crappy kernel (which is where most of
them are).

Apple doesn't even know how to write a kernel, for heaven's sake.

The messaging system of Apple also has many of the zero-click exploits.

But most zero clicks are in Apple's shitty kernel and crappy webkit code.
