Sure, but it’s infinitely harder on iOS to install malware, spyware or something else, I’m sure you’d agree. How many times have you looked at someone complaining about their computer being slow and they have 74 browser weather extensions and bars all siphoning data and doing who knows what.
It’s also easier to track down the publisher of a scam app to figure out who’s doing the scamming.
Simply put, I have less to worry about with older folks in my life using iOS than something else.
