Thanks for at least speaking the truth to these drones. I think there is a certain type of tech fanboy that doesn’t actually have any technical knowledge, but likes to spout off. They have difficulty accepting that actually iOS is more secure than almost every Android phone aside from GrapheneOS.
Comment on Israel’s IDF Bans Android Phones—iPhones Now ‘Mandatory’
prettybunnys@piefed.social 1 day agoI think you’re doing the tech tribalism thing here whereas I’m talking about actual device security.
I get it’s popular to hate Apple. Cool. You’re cool for hating Apple.
Anyone who is genuinely interested in mobile security ought to read some of the white papers or device analysis’ which are available to the public.
Anyways, cool, hate Apple but for some reason give Google a pass.

Lol like anyone here gives a shit that you fancy yourself knowledgeable

Talk about something of substance or don’t talk. If you aren’t citing security research or up to date details from Cellebrite’s technical documentation, then you’re not contributing anything. And, citing 6 year old articles as if it means something shows me I am more knowledgeable than you. I do have a degree in computer science and have studied security exploits. What about you? You’re an Android fan boy?

You haven’t said anything yet. Not interested.

On the contrary. Someone posted evidence showing apple bullshit is not secure and yet here you are saying it’s a fact and that any denial of that would undoubtedly be rooted in some baseless fanboy shit. K.

What evidence are you referring to?
As far as I can tell my anecdote about my professional experience is the only context here besides the post.

You can pretend they didn’t post a link showing that an Israeli software company can unlock any iPhone. Pretend is all you can do though. Kind of telling that I explicitly said fuck Google but you still insist I’m tRiBaLiSt.
And you claiming to be an expert couldn’t possibly mean less. I have no way of confirming that and honestly even if I did it wouldn’t mean you know everything.

I legitimately don’t see the link you’re referring to, I’m not pretending about anything.
Maybe it’s not federating on my end, could you link it?
Cellebrite struggles with iPhones, and some newer Android devices. Is it another company?
favoredponcho@lemmy.zip 21 hours ago
The link is 6 years old and includes dated information about Cellebrite. You should at the very least post updated information about the latest mobile OS versions vulnerable to Cellebrite. Spoiler: Android is very vulnerable and I haven’t seen information that the latest iOS is.
