Apple’s protection awareness is very strong, there are too many users in the helpless ecosystem, so various cracks have emerged, such as ‘jailbreak’ for iOS, ‘hacking’ and ‘card stickers’ for locked iPhones, and Mac ‘Black Apple and so on.
Black Apple is called Hackintosh in foreign countries. Simply put, it is to install macOS on PC products other than Mac (including notebooks of various brands, assembly machines, brand computers, etc.).
On the one hand, the emergence of Black Apples is driven by technology. On the other side, users feel that Apple’s Mac product line is too slow to update, and sometimes it is difficult to meet individual needs.
However, in the opinion of Canadian hacker Mykola Grymalyuk, with the birth of the M1 chip and Apple’s decision to completely migrate the Mac product line from Intel x86 to the ARM system within two years, his judgment is that the ‘Black Apple’ will come to an end within 5 years.
The reason is not difficult to understand. First of all, Apple’s M-series chips are not retailed in the market, nor can they be obtained through other OEMs.
Secondly, after completing the migration of the AMR system, Apple will slowly stop updating the software system on the Intel platform, and the significance of the Black Apple has been lost.
Another hacker, Tonymacx86, said that even if the Black Apple dies, the hacker spirit will not die.
