A forensic analysis shows that a sophisticated attack on Jeff Bezos’ iPhone X gave full access to both his photos and messages. While iOS is far better protected against malware than Android devices, iPhones are not immune, especially to sophisticated, targeted attacks. Background The National Enquirer ran a series of posts in which it said it had evidence of an affair between Bezos and former Fox anchor Lauren Sanchez.

“We believe this decision is not based on a technical assessment of Kaspersky products – that we continuously advocated for with the BSI and across Europe – but instead is being made on political grounds,” the security company said on Wednesday. “We believe that peaceful dialogue is the only possible instrument for resolving conflicts.

More importantly, Geekbench results (seen below) tell us that iPad 2 is clocked around “25 percent higher than the iPhone 4S”. Overall, the Apple-designed dual-core A5 chip inside iPhone 4S is estimated to run at 800MHz versus iPad 2’s 1GHz A5 processor. This isn’t entirely unexpected due to the battery concerns and the handset’s much smaller 5.25 Whr battery. Furthermore, Apple says iPhone 4S has “up to seven times faster graphics” versus the advertised “nine times faster graphics” on the iPad 2 – another proof that the two device’s graphics processing units are not clocked equally....

Another one made at supermarket Aldi showed up as St Neots Windows, a company across the other side of the street....

[This review of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia contains SPOILERS.] - A decade ago, even the most loyal and ardent supporters of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia couldn’t have predicted that the series would be finishing its 12th season in 2017.
