A bombshell report this week by 9to5Mac revealed a shocking new Apple bug: FaceTime, the company’s popular video chat app, lets callers eavesdrop on other users before they pick up.
The bug serves as a stark warning that digital security remains, in many ways, the Wild West — and that even the world’s largest software corporations can’t yet guarantee they’re not shipping products that people with no training as hackers can exploit.
Due to the Apple bug, if an iPhone user called a contact, then added themselves to a group chat while the call was still dialing, they could listen to the contact’s audio before they even answered the call.
