"If hackers connect the server to a computer, as the security firm did, then they can download all of the information." A server connected to a computer!! what an idea.:omg: (are there servers that are not computers?)

..And..? I don't see your point in relation to my post, or are you just trying to inflate your post count?

Well - the girl who brought me dinner yesterday definitely wasn't a computer.
Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.

Interesting, thanks John. Though in fairness that is a poorly written article, I hope it isn't an ABC tech. journalist. The WiFi hack is true for any WiFi system (heck, it is true for any connection between two computers where you can't see the entire linkage.) (I think people think you are linking to yet another iPhone activation hack, not an iPhone security breach.)

No - the motherboard was sitting next to me, hindering inter-process communication. No device access allowed.;P

Yeah, although I read the story and understood they mean you can visit a malicious website which can download all the data off your IPhone as well as the other stuff. I guess by now there are better reports on it.

It's true it's an issue, but if you are stupid enough to follow a link that was sent to you from a person you don't even know, what do you expect? i don't think it's the developer's job to protect people against their own stupidity.. and the part of the hacker being in between the user and the real server, it's quite an old trick really, but again the user must have run a script/program to make the iphone not connect to the real server, but to the hacker.. but well, if apple can do something about it without having to ask you twice if you're sure you want to do what you're doing (like some other real secure os's do...), be my guest

Oh come on, don't take the piss with me mate! :) This is Apple we're talking about here, they are godlike and infinitely wise surely they can make a device which is inherently secure regardless of what the user does.

Pssst... You gotta typo in the last line: Dosomething(); "s" is not capitalized. Where did you learn programming? :suss: TJ

lol :) yea i certainly agree on the fact that apple is godlike ;) (hooray for steve jobs!) as for the inherently secure part, i have my doubts :s perhaps they can give established 3th party developers some kind of digital signature or something (i don't know i'm not a security expert :p) but if one uses his iPhone with just a drop of common sense i'm sure it will be safe :) now if i only had the money to buy one :((
