Apple says iPhone is extremely hard to hack. OTW says he keeps finding real malware on normal people's iPhones. We talk Pegasus spyware, the Meta vs NSO lawsuit over WhatsApp, Apple's new memory integrity protections, and why a $5M bug bounty still won't stop well-funded spyware. We also get into how one infected phone can take over your entire WiFi and smart home, why your router and VPN box are the weakest link, and what “everything is hackable” really means for you.
