why did it take apple like 2 years to allow airtags to be shared i understand these things involve a lot of clever cryptography but ffs for a 2 trillion dollar company apple sure moves slow sometimes

KOTEX GOD OF BLOOD posted:a followup question to that is how much I should care. i dont really care about new features, i do care about security paranoia. you'll be fine, they continue to release security updates to terminal versions for a long time afterward. ios 15 got a security update a week ago

Jenny Agutter posted:can’t wait to install iOS 17 that will finally let me tell my phone that my wife is not actually stalking me with the airtag on the car key, and it doesn’t need to remind me again in 24 hours. what a half baked product lol i mean this is dumb i agree completely but tbh i'd rather they err on the side of over notifications on this one

they release security updates for older devices from time to time, usually when there's a major point revision for the os updates. the really bad vulnerabilities get fixes going back a few major full versions

KOTEX GOD OF BLOOD posted:this was my impression too ??? whenever they leave a lot of devices behind with a new os, they’ll support the previous os with updates for a few years. they were still patching iOS 12 (released in 2018) as late as January this year.
