Paypal does not block Safari

by cliveatfive . Original by Lionel - 21/04/2008 16:33:30 CEST
Last week, Paypal announced that they would begin to filter browsers that can access their interface to fight Phishing. Immediately, some had feared that Safari, which has no advanced features to protect users, from being ousted. Since then, Paypal has denied wanting to block Safari as a whole, however they would block older versions of the browser.
Yet Safari could potentially be locked out if Apple does not make a major effort in this area. The methods used by the "fishermen" are increasingly sophisticated and their messages are more convincing, not only for those people who are most credulous, but even audiences. It is therefore urgent that the fight surrounding this burgeoning phenomenon is increasing, especially for Apple, which continues to boast of the safety of the OS X platform. They should certainly resist becoming a prime target, for example, with an attack targeted at customers of the online Apple Store.
