  • White-hat hacker demonstrates malicious Lightning cable with built-in Wi-Fi

    And people wonder why Apple works so hard to protect your our data with great components like the T-series chips. If a WHH has made this then chances are independent, gov't, or corporate BHH have considered and created something similar already.
    This is NOT an example of Apple protecting you. Their cables really are mostly just overpriced. I've had cables that cost half as much last multiple YEARS. That said, there really are a lot of very poor quality USB cables out there, some of which could even damage your devices. Be smart and read reviews. If you're concerned about your data (you should have been TEN years ago) use what is being called a USB Condom (it blocks data access by inserting blanks where the data pins for USB go). A device like that can be used anywhere without fear that your cable is going to hack you...
