No offense, but the idea that "iOS is free of this intrusion" is your unsubstantiated opinion just as much. You don't know that for sure, do you?

  So far only Android phones are reported as having the software installed on them by border guards. There are no reports of this being done to iPhones. Those are the facts.

    The company building the software also provides equivalents for other operating systems: https://mobile.twitter.com/0xdude/status/1146113174212661249?s=12 https://mobile.twitter.com/0xdude/status/1146113174212661249... We just don't have a sample to reverse-engineer yet.

    Well, they're facts about news reports. Always good to remember that what we know about what's going on in some other part of the world is what people tell us.

      I understand that and I think the people downvoting do too. It doesn’t justify knowingly and explicitly stating something as a fact based only on speculation.

        What exactly was stated explicitly as a fact?
  • rjsw 7y ago
    The reports that I have seen have stated that iPhones are searched by connecting a cable to them.

      Cables are probably connected to make sure the screen doesn't lock to save battery.

    Those are the reports, not the facts.
