What happened

A security-focused blog feed covering Apple image authenticity and iPhone reboot protections, surveillance through cameras, connected cars, and linked messaging devices, AI safety and political use, and cryptographic research. The most actionable items concern a reported capability to bypass iOS automatic inactivity reboot protections, device-linking abuse to access WhatsApp or Signal messages, and an impractical RSA signature-forgery attack against improperly configured, unpadded RSA signatures. No specific CVEs are identified in the supplied content.
