  • This doesn’t seem like it’s anything that affected users’ cyber safety. It was a graffiti attack on the landing page, which was vulnerable to these attacks (because it seemed to have been overlooked during patching operations). Politics aside (because the messages were allegedly horrific, and hate pisses me off), this is basically spray painting a giant phallic object on the side of the building. Disgusting, should be severely reprimanded, but ultimately harmless.

    Or did I misunderstand?



  • …Yet both Android and Apple phones use MEMS silicon for their devices, so why were only Apple phones affected? The answer, it seems, is because Apple recently defected from traditional quartz-based clocks in its phones in favor of clocks that are also made of MEMS silicon.

    So, they ask the question of why iPhones are the only ones affected if androids also went to MEMS, then answer it by saying that apple went to MEMS. Are they saying that the clocks in Androids still use quartz, but iPhones use MEMS clocks, even though they both use general MEMS silicon?

    Edit, autocorrect
