Those billion outdated devices are the low hanging fruit screening me and my fully updated iOS device. I can be confident that casual attackers aren't coming after me, only the higher tier ripoff artists gunning for iOS users and the APTs who are attacking my company specifically.
- junkscience2017 9y agoNo, with certainty your private information has already been stolen or sold once or even multiple times. Equifax is just the hack you know about. Insider threats are common and your identity is surely sitting in some giant tarball that is bought and sold. Until society reboots you with a new SSN, new credit score, new drivers license...you are already compromised. In ten years will there even be a single US citizen whose private data is wholly uncompromised? Doubtful This is the ultimate data slavery...unable to protect our identifying strings...and unable to repudiate them when they are compromised. My SSN is compromised and I am stuck with it for another fifty years...same as you. Enjoy your phone.
