flaw -> media -> company -> fix/cover -> clowns talking about it.
 
This is a quarter of the story. This exploit works on Windows Mobile and Android smart phones as well. Why all the focus on the iPhone?
 
just a thought maybe they planned it that way so that they can remote kill your iphone when they get the coerce government to sign a law to make illegal jail break. you know this company wants total control of theyr toys. its just that someone else found it, and they dont want any regular guy to find out.
 
"It's scary. I don't want people taking over my iPhone," said Miller.

LOL, from what I've herd, if he was a real security expert, he would have avoided the iphone like the plague.
 
Gone are the days of apple not being plagued by viruses and exploits everyone boast about it.
It was under the radar for so long, that most hackers didn't consider it worth bothering.
Apple needs to wake up and realize the more popularity they get, the more they will catch up to MS on these problems.
Not have viruses and exploits, and no one LOOKING for them is 2 totally different things.
