If that's the case, then many of their public statements about this are extraordinarily dishonest. There are widespread exploits targeting Safari, Chrome, iOS and Android. These are not only rare attacks targeting people heavily sought out by governments, etc. They do not have nearly as much visibility into it as they make it seem.

Can you be more specific on what you consider "widespread" vs "rare"?

		I don't think this constitutes as widespread at least in impact, but there's been times where malicious apps have made it on the App store and used to steal cryptocurrency.

I don't really agree with your framing.
