    None of those include the App Store/sideloading, though, or blocking root access on all devices other than macOS, which is unfortunate.

    It’s a start, though.

      blocking root access on all devices other than macOS,

      Hopefully, more is done as far as root access. Side loading is a matter of when not if, but root is far more of a gray area IMO.

      And MacOS isn’t safe btw, they’ve been neutering sudo on MacOS for the past few versions now and I suspect it’s to prepare it and people for a future “walled garden desktop OS”.

        I think they are going to shift people to iPads where it’s already locked down. People already accept a locked down iPad, but not a locked down Mac. Maybe it’s why the Mac’s are so expensive compared to the air.
