Can I put a replacement camera into your phone that transmits a spy signal feed continuously without you realizing it?
Before this change: Yes, without any barriers or chance of detection.
After this change: Not easily, and the hardware and OS are looking out for that attack.
This seems like a targeted defense against blackmailers and state-sponsored attackers. I’m glad to see it.
- ganoushoreilly 6y agoIf state sponsored attackers targeting your hardware is an issue for you.. you have bigger issues. The number of people buying the phone that are targeted specifically is probably in the small hundreds vs the millions they'll sell. This is clearly about Apple controlling repairs.
