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.
I mean, Intel did it first and I do believe AMD and Qualcomm also followed suit.
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.
You can’t compete without doing it. Do you think Intel and AMD stopped doing it? Hell nah, people will find new exploits in a few years, I’m certain.
If you don’t do speculative execution, you’ll be left in the dust unfortunately.
If anything, this shows that there should be separate lines of CPUs for handling classified data and such, that don’t do it. But it would likely be prohibitively expensive to implement a separate product line.
You do realize this kind of attack first appeared on x86 hardware, right?

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.
Well yes, but newer CPU models such as 13th and 14th gen Intel CPUs are also susceptible to these attacks, my points is that Apple is no exception to this vulnerability and should not be singled out for it
