New iOS update is resurfacing deleted files that users thought were gone.
In some cases, nude photos, even after the user WIPED it and SOLD the device.
Highlighting the danger of using Monero on iPhones and Macs, https://rebelnet.me/news/0xa6f1ae72427b2f1120
So if you haven’t already, consider switching to Linux and DeGoogled phone.

Nothing happened to me, and I’m yet to see actual proof of it. Just testimonials for now
But yea some of them are pretty worrying

Surely rebelnet dot me is a legitimate source and not some bs news lookalike
I’ll wait for an official source rather than browse to some weirdo URL

You could just Google it.

There's a lot of reports about it including on Apple's own website.
Bunch of users are now realizing that these companies don't let you delete things it just modify the visibility of it.

Burden of proof? Guess we don’t believe in sharing credible sources here.
Thanks for the passive aggressive response tho

Hey Captain give this guy a shady source saying Apple is the best and watch them saying it's legit

Rebelnet.me is a privacy focused social site run by some community members.

Thanks for the additional intel. So far, all I’ve seen is that these were rumors that started on a Reddit post.
Disinformation is on the up and up (right before an election, go figure) so I’ll just wait until there’s higher quality articles/intel on the issue and confirm this isn’t trolling/bs.
So far I’ve only seen “reputable” sites reporting this as heresay as well, specifically referencing the Reddit posts.

Thanks for bringing to our attention that a random security firm has false flagged the domain.
