Aren't statistics a wonderful thing? This story:
https://mspoweruser.com/analysis-shows-over-the-last-decade-windows-10-had-fewer-vulnerabilities-than-linux-mac-os-x-and-android/[1]
claims that 'over the last decade Windows 10 appears to be a lot safer than
Android, Mac
OS or Linux'. The headline is followed by a graphic which appears to support
the
assertion.
However, the very first comment points out that Windows 10 wasn't here in 1999,
the
beginning of the survey period, and wasn't launched until 2015.
Which just goes to prove something or other; either the deviousness of
Statisticians or the
deviousness of some sectors of the Tech Press.
