So, basically, connecting the various articles on this website- we will be nuclear bombed by jailbroken Iphones that recieve a "square" character as a text message? Is this Foxconn's master plan? Conspiracies!!! Jk

If Apple's abuse as of late to its brainwashed never questioning fanboys fails to make you avoid Apple's overpriced and overrated products. Maybe this will. Good thing hardly no exploits Apple's software.

"The security bug is unusual for the iPhone as most applications on the device run inside their own sandboxes, which should restrict them from tapping into portions of the device that it shouldn't be accessible"

bahahaha, there are ppl who still believe that apple products never get viruses because apple are just super awesome Gods of security? it doesn't matter how awesome your security is, if someone REALLY WANTS to hack it, they will find a way, and THAT is what has protected apple, no one REALLY WANTS to hack there stuff cause it wasn't popular enough. well... now it is.

hmm.. wow, that is a bit of a bummer security hole. Oh well, look at Paris HIlton's blackberry that got hacked and contact list spread on the net. Or what about that fancy bluetooth sniper rifle that can "snipe" hack bluetooth enabled phones?

Mac's operating system will be an easier nut to crack once hackers start to focus on it. That is because it has a lot more code in it than Windows, leaving room for more vulnerabilities and bugs that hackers can exploit

Mass mailing iphone worm, as if ATT didn't have a crappy enough phone service, this would pretty much break the whole system. While I wouldn't condone such exploitation, I would still tip my hat to the folks who made it happen.
