Apple retires Snow Leopard from support, leaves 1 in 5 Macs vulnerable to attacks. See

| abstract | - For a company whose marketing is often focused on security, Apple, it's been surprising to many that Apple appears to have a policy of not explicitly notifying their customers when software reaches EOL. Consider Snow Leopard: when it stopped receiving critical security updates this had to be reported by the tech press, because Apple provided no notice for their customers. Apple retires Snow Leopard from support, leaves 1 in 5 Macs vulnerable to attacks. See Apple would do well to join the other OS vendors in being more forthcoming with its customers about EOL and its implications. Their current policy of relative silence on EOL is as unnecessary as it is damaging.
