        Wait, "apologize" isn't in Apple dictionary. They should blame us for using it wrong.

          Why apologize? I thought this is an NSA feature made available for common man!

                      At least, Apple is being true to their Consumers. They acknowledge the situation and I admire them. They didn’t hide or ignore it. That is what I like about Apple. They are sincere andc apologetic. Not like Androids... more about competition duhhhh

                              Apple apologizes :-)
                              I rather have I am Sorry song from Bart Baker.
                              What song is saying is equal to apple apologize.

                                It is very hard to find vulnerabilities these days as codes are getting larger and larger and more complicated.

                                  So this is how eavesdropping works, without user even know about it.
                                  What would stop Apple turn on mic, and camera without customer knowing it, even not using Face time?
                                  They just proved it is possible :D

                                    What Happens on Your iPhone, Stays on Your iPhone.
                                    Some days earlier Apple mocked others now this time they suffer.

                                    Thank God they apologised otherwise they say People don't know how to use facetime ios 12 or this is a new feature in Industry.
