"Using a Mac may certainly be a safer choice for a lot of people as despite being vulnerable they are not targeted. However this is not the same as Macs being secure, something
Eric Schmidt erroneously advised recently. I may be able to browse impervious to malware on a Mac at the moment, however I personally would not be comfortable using a platform so easily compromised if someone had the motivation to do so. In
this article I address just why OS X is so insecure including the technical shortcomings of OS X as well as Apples policies as a company that contribute to the situation."

Maybe it's because of my limited English skills, but it always reads as an aggressive and subjective, flamewar-inducing term. Like, you know "everyone in the computing world has pest, except us because we have found a cure".
Curated in this instance is defined as differentiating installs from any variety of sources which may or may not be safe with those which Apple has presumably examined and approved for their store....not really subjective at all.
