I made the switch to Apple OS five years ago and glad I did. Big Brother Apple seems to be doing something right.

Cyberspace is nearly hopelessly convoluted, complicated. If ever there was a need for global action it would be to protect our globally shared cyberspace. When the news first broke about the ransomeware attack, I heard that, in a perfect world where everyone installed updates to their Windows OS, everyone would be protected from attack and an attack of this magnitude could not happen. I don't know for a fact if that's true (Julie you mentioned that MS stopped providing updates in 2014), but if it is, then why don't all operating systems automatically update -- at least the updates that protect our security/privacy?
