The company that claims to have "the highest standard everywhere in the world" for security and privacy, happens to run a major desktop platform (macOS) with only a primitive basic signature-based antivirus built-in. Instead they rely on Gatekeeper/notarization for the bulk of the protection, which is a pain for devs (when it doesn't work right) and less effective.
Same is now happening with iOS sideloading, instead of robust antimalware based on heuristics and app behavior (like Google Play Protect), they'll keep relying on blunt instruments like notarization. Doubt it'll keep users safer. Maybe it's NIH syndrome?
