"Assuming that 'because it's a Mac, it's safe' is no longer wise" is probably one of this book's most important themes. It has been my experience that too many Mac users "know" that OS X is secure and therefore they have nothing to worry about. This book shows just how wrong that attitude is.

Name calling aside your point is valid. But mac users security attitudes are no worse than that of the typical Windows user. I fix problems for Windows users frequently and most of them have absolutely no idea how insecure their system is. Out of the box a Mac is much more secure than a Windows machine. We need to educate the vast majority of computer users in security issues as that would make all our lives a lot less complicated.
