The publishing industry did this before by colluding with Apple. Had to settle out of court with DoJ over it.

I understand that the boot chain is the only way Apple may modify the behaviour of the Enclave but how would the update be forced? DFU wipes the class key, making any attempt at trying to brute force the phone, useless. If debug pinout acce

Can the SE be updated on a locked phone? Because Apple's docs give the impression that it can't.

6 months? Firefox before auto-updates had faster turnaround for the updates. Not only that iOS still doesn't have auto-updates. The user still has to manually agree to the nag. It's ok when your app is the iBooks. Not so when it i

Apple need to move Safari to the App Store. A Browser only being updated with the OS in 2016 is ridiculous.

According to Apple's own whitepaper one the topic, the pin only used to hash the class key, not the encryption key itself.

Going by the score I am getting, we are in the minority.

The key is not the password. If that were the case, the phone would have to re-encrypt everything everytime you change the pin or password. The password unlocks the key. And if you brute force the key itself, it might take decades, maybe ce

The court order was posted on HN hours before this letter and eother Tim Cook has not rrad the order or he's lying about the back door. What the court ordered was the removal of the auto-wipe.

In my jailbreak days, the DFU update did indeed wipe the device. I don't know how it works.

Not only that, they can reject the renewal application for the green card. They rarely do, but they can.

Yeah the UI assets had to be there in the first place. Compared to SBSettings, the jailbreak era control center, which looked like someone taped together the buttons, and it becomes apparent that Job's statement was just salesmanship

>They keep adding more apps to the core OS image that can only be updated with a full software update now. This is a huge drawback for Safari, both on desktop and mobile.

I am from a country where corruption is rampant. I don't think corruption is a cause, but an effect. You see certain economic schools of thought believe in the absolute power of the Market to solve issues. Corruption is the Free Market

The only Netflix show that obscene amounts of product placement is House of Cards. That show has more problems than that. You are not in the minority. But to reach that sort of revenue at current Netflix subscription rate, it would require
