Maybe, might also be that since tech literacy has degraded since his leak. Which means that they don’t care because they are overwhelmed with the information that they don’t understand. Hell, I imagine that a lot of the press that where sent the information didn’t fully understand.

The average person likely defaulted to what they always do, and just assumed that the leak meant the feds had to stop and treat it like any other historic reveal (example being stuff like COINTELPRO and believing that it was bad but isn’t done anymore). Hell, a shocking amount of libs honestly thought that Biden was going to bring Medicare for All (even though he said he wasn’t) just because he said “the Democratic Party is the party of healthcare” a few times.

Came to check if anyone had already linked hak5. Glad to see you had shared the link!

Looks like he just saw an Android icon pack around the same time default icon style was shifting towards that same look. And just turned it in with a fancy story about how he “played with many shapes” (then show some quickly drawn or even some he did try) “before it just hit me” vibe. I wonder how many in-house employees might have come up with the same and just overlooked.

Seems like they should just make a movie that is only him doing dangerous stunts.

I mean 4Chan was possibly able to convince at least some amount of people that iOS 7 update somehow made their iPhone gain water resistance that would trip a hardware “smart switch” built into the phones. Just a numbers game that at least a small amount of people would believe something long enough to not really think about. Though the same can also be applied to convincing folks that other folks were dumb enough to be tricked. Which is still the same result. ¯\_ (ツ) _/¯

Funny how the USA went nuts and strong-armed other Western nations to outright ban Chinese hardware and companies due to “security concerns.” Yet allowed using a fork of Signal from a foreign nation, and those concerns were nowhere to be found. IOF is already known to be on par (if not better) with the USA in spying on and creating false flags globally. Yet the highest office chose to use it anyway. Which is beyond stupid given that a fork could have been made and ran by a USA company (or the NSA or whichever three letter agency) specifically for the same use. Hell those agencies already are and have been heavily funding the Signal Foundation.
