Drug money? It’s white hat.

Yes, this is supposed to be white hat (i.e. good guy/security researcher) hacking, done to expose flaws that are then quietly reported directly to the manufacturer so they can be fixed.

(i.e. I don't think the methodology for the exploit is made public, just that an exploit has been done).

I believe the concept is to expose security risks so that everyone knows about them, and the manufacturer or developer can fix the hole or risk they found that they otherwise wouldn’t have known about. Making it public provides the developer the information needed to remedy the problem, so I’m all for this, find the risks…and fix them.

The $10,000 is probably drug money. Bunch of creeps.

Hate this kind of thing. Yes they are clever to be able to hack these things but how long will it be before some **** releases some malicious code (which could easily be stmbled upon using google) and bam one screwed iphone
