I thought iPhone were electronically secure, it seems they are not. I thought the FBI had to just do some Xray of some chip to read some ROM thing.
Sometimes I wonder if real security is really and theoretically possible, or if it's just engineers who never manage to achieve it because designers want things to be usable for consumers.
What ever happens it doesn't seem really secure, consumer oriented device do exist. I wonder if there are android devices who do a good job at that, and what's the status of the security of android device in general, I would guess it's not better.
- ozim 9y agoWhat is real security? Is it absolute security? Are you willing to pay $500k for a phone? Is there a vendor who is willing to put R&D investment of $20mil so you can buy one? How much more phones they would sell? If you would be Ed Snowden would you even trust that company? Are you going to buy a safe to keep family photos in it? What does it even mean for you to have absolutely secure phone if you are going to be hit by a bus tomorrow?
