Users have discovered a rather serious exploit with the iPad 2 and its Smart Cover. In just a few seconds, anyone could easily bypass the password lock screen and use whatever application was left running before the screen was locked.
The flaw affects iPhones 5 and 6, and iPad 2, running iOS 8.2 and later.
Charles Arthur: "It’s time to stop the snobbishness about how superior a ‘proper computer’ is."
In October, Microsoft did something it's never done before, it generated more revenue selling its Surface line of PC/tablet hybrids to online consumers than Apple made selling iPads, according to data from 1010data.
Oh dear. That's quite an exploit. Though not really bad, but it has its repercussions.
God I was reading about this... that's just messed up!
Glad I didn't shell out the $40+ bucks for one of these now!
What an exploit. staying extra far away from apple now :D
