You know, I'd love to think that the problem is cyber security is hard -- which it IS -- but I'm starting to get the feeling that the actual problem is that Apple doesn't care about this kind of stuff. So many incredible vulnerabilities going back generations of iPhones and iOS...the zero click iMessages one floored me.
What is dumb about it to me is that the solution in my mind is simple: don’t give Messages.app private API access. They get access other messaging apps from the App Store can’t have and that’s what’s causing these vulnerabilities, but all they need is APNS and access to the SMS service (which is private but shouldn’t be dangerous… right?).
