THREAT INTEL: PRIVACY – Elon Musk Threatens to Ban Apple Devices Over Privacy Concern. Mr. Musk announced a potential ban on iPhones and other Apple devices, citing serious privacy concerns.

Mr. Musk’s concerns and worries extend way beyond Apple‘s ties to Microsoft, focusing on the broader threat posed by Apple and Microsoft‘s insecure servers. This includes those used for OpenAI as the real-time screenshots below demonstrate.

With exposed and vulnerable critical Internet Assets, the risk from enabling, even facilitating cyber criminals and cybercrime is significant.

This move highlights the lax and sub optimal security of Apple‘s and Microsoft‘s servers and DNS. This despite Microsoft‘s issuance of CVE 2020-1350 with a CVSS of 10 on exposed DNS servers.

Mr. Musk is right to be concerned, albeit quite possibly not knowing the major external criminal aspect and threat.

Each and every Apple and Microsoft user should also be concerned as they are being enforced into Insecurity Entrapment due to these exposed, highly vulnerable, and insecure servers.
