    But to get to the point that the vulnerability is now being used as a service, doesn’t that mean it’s been there for a while?(I think he mentions that there’s another company that did a bunch of research on the service and the vulnerability for a long time), and if Apple hasn’t given any attention to this major security problem how else will they get pressured into working on a fix? Idk, for me it’s the best way forward given their lack of attention to the problem so far. Also, if I’m not mistaken, it falls in line with a “common practice” that some security researches do, which is to warn the company of the problem, and if they don’t act on it after a certain amount of time, they disclose it to the public so there’s pressure for a fix.
