Wait so this is in the actual apple app store and not only on jailbreak phones?

Really? OMG! How can this happen? I thought Apple was uber secure and this only happens to Android phones and Windows PCs.

Wow...so using macbot logic since the Windows Phone store has never been screwed up like this it’s the only secure store out there right now. Quick macbots to ensure you have security on your phones switch to Windows Phone immediately.

Steve Jobs is turning over in his grave seeing with Apple is becoming.

Yes. And if you live in China, then your Apple device might be infected.

Guys. Swordmaker was the person who posted the thread, as a security/privacy alert, and presented the available facts minus the hysterical clickbait headline crapola. What the hell do you want?

Geez. You guys sound like a couple of jackasses. Not saying you -are-, just sayin' your trolling makes you sound just as stupid as the Applebot trolls who make dumb, predictable, snarky comments on the Windows threads. How about you grow up, maybe? Or at least say something different from your usual troll lines, and try not to be so repetitious, eh?

> ...switch to Windows Phone immediately.

LOL.

> Steve Jobs is turning over in his grave seeing with Apple is becoming.

Now, THAT comment I can agree with.

Thanks from your friendly FR Windows guy. :-) Have a great day!

“Really? OMG! How can this happen?”

Ah, the ever-clueless 4-q-clinton surfaces from the muck again.

It happens because security is hard. At least this has been found, the most serious vulnerabilities are those that have gone undetected. I wonder how many of those are on the near-empty Windows store?

The situation is far better than Android, where hundreds of millions (billions?) of highly vulnerable devices will never even receive an update...

Bye for-q...
