Any platform has vulnerability to exploit to some degree. But this article is about piggybacking on the Find My network to transmit data without actually compromising the network. It’s a clever technique, and worth reading more than the headline.

It’s very interesting but the article is a rehash of some 2-year-old work by others, and doesn’t really update anything, apart from saying that “apparently, Apple addressed this problem.” with no further clarification. Pretty low effort tbh.
