<\/p>\nRUSH: Now, last week there was this massive news report. It went way beyond the tech blogs. It went into the Drive-By Media that iPhones been had been hacked en masse for the past number of years. The story was put out by something called Project Zero at Google. Google has a department, a team of people that try to hunt down and find — they\u2019re white hat guys. They\u2019re the good guys.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
They try to find malware and hacks and vulnerabilities in computers and hand-held devices, mobile devices so that the people that manufacture those devices can patch the software and continue their security. So this bunch, they work at Google, and they\u2019re a bunch of nerds, which is fine, but they sit there and they study all the various different operating systems and devices, and they\u2019re looking for vulnerabilities.<\/p>\n
And they came out with a story that a massive vulnerability had been found in the iPhone. And that all you had to do was visit a website. It did not name the website. All you had to do was visit a website and virtually everything on your phone was in the hands of bad guys. Your passwords, your key chain, your credit card information, your contacts, your photos, everything. They didn\u2019t tell you which websites, and they didn\u2019t specify the specific years, but they made it sound like it was multiple years, and they made it sound like it only affected iPhones.<\/p>\n
So people are running around — iOS, the operating system for iPhones and iPads — is the toughest operating system to crack out there. Android is Swiss cheese compared to iOS. And I\u2019m not talking about this as a Fanboy. I\u2019m just giving you the straight skinny on this. It\u2019s very hard to hack iOS. And when I first read this, \u2019cause I don\u2019t believe anything in the media anymore. I just don\u2019t, folks. And Google is a competitor of Apple. I\u2019m not sure this was a factor here, but let me tell you what this ended up being.<\/p>\n
It was the ChiComs. It was Chinese websites. And it was every phone. It was Samsung. It was Huawei, it was LG, it was every operating system, and it was the ChiComs targeting Chinese Muslims. You had to log onto a Chinese website for anybody to be able to get into your phone. They knew this, but they only reported it as an iPhone vulnerability, and they made it look like it could be any and every website that anybody would be using every day, and it\u2019s strickly a Chinese issue.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
It\u2019s ChiComs trying to find everything they can on these renegade Muslims, the Uyghurs, and wipe \u2019em out, put \u2019em in reeducation camps and so forth. Now, this was known, but the Google Project Zero team did not report that aspect of it. Your phone is fine for the most part. The story was way exaggerated. There aren\u2019t tens of thousands of people that got into your phone because you went to Facebook or you went to Twitter or any other website or social media site.<\/p>\n
And it\u2019s classic the way this stuff ends up being misreported, unchecked, and because there\u2019s an anti-Apple bias in tech media, they just saw it as something, like Lawrence O\u2019Donnell saw the oligarchs having cosigned Trump loans at Deutsche Bank. Don\u2019t even question it. Just report it. The odds are your phone is fine unless you\u2019re a Muslim in China. Even if you\u2019re Ilhan Omar, I don\u2019t think the ChiComs are targeting you yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
