    IPhones hacked

    After a rather strange FB pop up* that had sniffed my ISP and promised a new iPhone/iPad (it obviously couldn't discern which I was using), I came across this BBC article. And there is indeed a security update in your Settings (not yet highlighted). I'd go dig it out and install it if I were you..,

    *for newbies out there - double-click and swipe FB off your screen if you come across the pop up box, don't click OK.

    Who are the hackers who cracked the iPhone?

    I didn't screen-grab the pop up as I came across the article later.

          Just grammar issues?
