One of the arrogant members of that team was running his mouth on twitter this morning, stoking the fire even more. He was threatening the hackers who breached the data. Cool thing about all of the tools they have being released is within a few days, all the major anti-virus companies can update their software to find and remove this crap.
Not all of us are using Apple Pay yet. I'm still on a 5sApple Pay does not become less secure when jailbreaking, just like Touch ID.
So it requires a jailbroken device, attached to an infected trusted pc? Haha
Won't keep me from jailbreaking
I know that, intellectually, it is still secure. However, I'm not willing to bet my financial life on it.Apple Pay does not become less secure when jailbreaking, just like Touch ID.
I think it's one of those, "I wonder if the stove is still hot... OUCH!" things.I'm sorry... I can't remember exactly, but I believe I used it twice. I'd like to meet the guy who uses it thrice.
Pretty much... I tried to like it once, didn't. Tried again a bit later, still couldn't stand it.I think it's one of those, "I wonder if the stove is still hot... OUCH!" things.
It means the average user has absolutely nothing to worry about. It means you need to be targeted specifically by a professional. Your ex-boyfriend isn’t going to be able to do this. Neither will your nerdy cousin.
Is this supposed to be impressive? A jailbroken phone connected to a trusted computer with USB has its root directory and all subdirectories accessible and writable. A malicious program can easily do whatever it wants without even having elevated permissions.
So.... you're only actually vulnerable if you happen to have a Jailbroken iPhone and a computer that is also infected with their malware.
Pretty unlikely scenario?
Phew - can't hack into my two tin cans and a length of string!

Depends which version of iOS. It would be a big challenge to jailbreak a version that doesn't have a known full-auto exploit. I know you have to put your device in DFU mode or do something else manually for some versions, which would be a no-go for them.Depends if the vulnerability gets patched. Does not take a genius to install software you download from the internet onto a computer and wait for you to connect your iPhone .
Most hackers are not clever masterminds , they just use tools made by clever people.
Not all of us are using Apple Pay yet. Most places around here only accept credit card or cash, often cash only, so it's not worth it. XDNot all of us are using Apple Pay yet. I'm still on a 5s
In the United States, your privacy is literally listed as a right in the Constitution. But yeah, I like that they CAN spy on someone if there is a good reason to. Oh great, I have 3 separate posts now. Should have put them together, sorry.Which is why, frankly, I don't care. Time for warrants to be given to hack the digital life of anyone for whom there is probable cause to believe is committing a crime, or terrorism. You know that police did not used to routinely get a warrant to wiretap? If you commit crimes on the Internet, and you certainly can, your privacy is not a right.
This is gone in iOS 9. You can delete this folder as usual.View attachment 566774
Get back into your folder and just be glad I can't delete you… without a jailbreak.
