android has been subject to very similar security issues over time, it's the nature of the game, particularly with a war going on

I read that if you don’t update the hackers can get total access to your iPhone..
Mine has my LIFE on it .. I haven’t enough storage space to install the update though !! Are they scaremongering !?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

the specific issue is related to safari and if you visit a malicious website. If you dont visit dodgy sites there is no threat

Ok that’s a relief .. Can I just go INCOGNITO or use a VPN to be extra careful ? Also - On our PC I do use a foreign mp3 site for buying and downloading albums very cheaply - I top up funds using PayPal I also ‘borrow’ songs off YouTube using a few YouTube download sites Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |
