This is not the CIA hacking into Kim Un Iphone in North Korea, this is local cops using these advance surveillance tools on US civilians.

- dkonofalski 8y agoDon't fool yourself. That's not possible with the current iOS configuration and the link you provided doesn't dispute that. If anything, Apple has closed any potential backdoors that could have been exploited.
