Apple devices invulnerable to viruses

Yes, that’s true. There’s no such thing as invulnerability and to think that Smartphones nowadays are very similar to computers, it is very easy for experienced programmers to infiltrate their way in to make the device go wild. Like what happened on Macintosh computers, before it seems that programmers are less interested on creating codes that will penetrate Mac computers and corrupting its processes. But sometime last year while browsing the web, I accidentally read an article saying that there is an incident where a Mac computer got infected with a certain virus. Although it’s an isolated case, it still happened.

Even in the early models of Nokia phones, viruses are very rampant. There is a virus that can send random text messages to the contacts stored on the phone without the owner’s knowledge while rapidly draining the battery and permanently damaging it in the long run. If mobile phones are secured from being infected by a virus then software companies wouldn’t dare design and offer antivirus software or application since it will only be useless in the first place and a waste of money.
