CrackBerry is Under New Ownership and Relaunching in 2022 Beyond BlackBerry - Read All About It!
- Just saw this on Twitter this morning, thought I'd share for all the "fanboi's" to read.
iPhone hacked and hijacked at Pwn2Own « Boy Genius Report
And for Christ Sake, lets not turn this into a "phone vs phone" debate, I just posted this cause I thought it was an interesting find for all to read.Last edited by JoelTruckerDude; 03-25-10 at 06:30 AM.

Case in point, your title reads you have a "Bold and HTC" yet here you are reading in the Storm forums.Last edited by JoelTruckerDude; 03-25-10 at 07:02 AM.

Keep in mind the paragraph about "Secure Operations"

Remember the data farming app being pushed by a carrier a few months ago?
Remember the patches all BB OSs needed for some kind of exploit found within the past year as well?
Case in point, NOTHING is secure. MacOS is not more secure then Windows is... people that use Macs just feel safer and more secure for the same reason that people who live on farms in the middle of nowhere can leave their doors and windows unlocked and feel secure. (This last part is actually taken from a security person online who when I read it felt it was a very good analogy.) No one's bothered with the smaller platforms because you can hit more people with the more popular platforms. That being said, MacOSX just has 20 something exploits published just last week I think. Apple's working to patch those up...03-25-10 02:01 PMLike 0 - Yes, because the Blackberry has never been compromized or had weaknesses in the near past.

effin women anyway, so glad I ditched the b1tch 14 years ago, cause ain't never seen one that doesn't. So you can run and tell your little mod buddies that you don't like what I wrote and they can close it.03-25-10 06:52 PMLike 0 -
- In any of my posts above, never did I state that one was better or more secure than the other, just tired of everybody preaching how "flawless" the "jesus" phone is and bashing the blackberry cause it can't do this or can't do that like the "jesus" phone can, so you can roll eyes till your blue in the face, considering I've never seen a post of yours that was helpful, all I've ever seen of you is "b1tch, b1tch, b1tch, whine, whine, whine, complain, complain, complain". Christ, I might have a post count that high if that's all I came on here for too.

The iPhone (and any robust OS) will have vulnerabilities, that's a fact of life. The Jesus phone (I heard god is switching to WP7S and traded his Honda for a Benz) Android, Windows, WebOS, Symbian, and RIMs OS can be compromised with one click of a stupid user. These remote hacks rely on the user being a dumbass to be honest.
The iPhone is still pretty secure, but FYI people, if security is your highest priority, I can gurantee you ARE NOT LEISURELY SURFING THE NET ON THAT DEVICE. That in itself eliminates the possibilities of being infected by anything.

Stupid people get the funk. lol I love it when someone tells me they didn't do anything, it just happened. OK, sure... it just happened all by itself. **** doesn't just happen... something triggered it and 99.99% of the time it's user triggered. The other .01% of the time is open port compromization via exploits or open accounts.... which in my book still equates to a stupid user jumping on a network connection.03-26-10 12:43 AMLike 0

It's human nature to not want to accept blame for screwing something up, and people would rather pawn it off on something than realize it wouldn't have happened without them.
"Windows is so insecure, I went to this one site (most likely Porn) and ended up with a VIRUS, so I switched to a mac!"
My response "Macs aren't any more secure, there are just less viruses and malware floating around."03-26-10 01:30 AMLike 0 -
