    Full program? Apple hasn’t released a single session yet.

    One thing I like about my dell monitors Is that they rotate.  What are good stands for the studio display that rotate?

    sounds like a nice monitor, but they should have included FaceId since it has the A13 chip.
    I agree with you: I’m not tilting my screens as much as I rotate them. Too bad Apple doesn’t have a solution for that.
    FaceID would have been nice but is not possible as it is tied to a chip with Secure Enclave. The A13 you mention has the correct version with Secure Enclave but can only decrypt what’s on that chip. You don’t plan to store things on your screen do you? As you can’t use one Secure Enclave to decrypt another (the one in your laptop) you can’t use FaceID on a screen.
    However that would have been nice: just sit in front of your screen and bam! you get logged in! Even if you use your laptop in clamshell mode like me.
    Anyway, they have solved the problem with the new magic keyboard that has a touchID button which works if you have an M1 chip in your laptop.
    Who knows, maybe they’ll upgrade from the A13 to M1 inside the screen and you’ll get FaceID for “free”?

    No biggy. It's software bug so will be fixed in dot release.
    You don’t seem to grasp the depth of this exploit. Any app could have been downloading everyone’s contacts. It is one of the worst exploit I’ve ever heard of. There is no way to get rid of it. Oh yeah: switch off your phone!

    Bullshit. Give us your real name and security expert credentials and then maybe we’ll pay attention. Otherwise you are just an anonymous tech blog chicken little. How many times have we had to endure predictions of doom by a user claiming to have 30 years experience in IT and a literal God of the internet, only to find out those predictions were baloney?
    Haha, your comment proves you are not a developer. You don’t need any of my credentials, you can try it yourself! Just do like me: you go to GitHub we’re the code is: https://github.com/illusionofchaos/ios-gamed-0day then install it on your iPhone. You are not a developer but you can install it on your phone by first downloading Xcode on your Mac (free). Then register an AppleID (free). As a non developer you are authorized to install max 3 apps which is enough here. When Xcode is installed open up the .xcodeproj file you downloaded from GitHub. Change in “Signing” to your “appleID”. After that can you try the app! You will see just like me several rows (a List since the dev wrote the code in SwiftUI). The first one links you to all your Contacts, interactions with them with many details. After that the row supposed to display “speedDial” fails so I can’t see any phone calls, instead comes a line pointing to pictures from your contacts. Later on details about your Game Center ID (AppleID, Full name and surname).
    I’m not only an iOS developer, I’m also a mobile pentester with GIAC certification from my SEC575 sans.org course: I tried to use exploit to show info about the IMSI info (xpc service mmcs.plist) but did not manage it.
    So no, I’m not alarmist, I just tried the code myself instead of just reading the info.
