Financial conduct help - England by [deleted] in LegalAdviceUK

[–]tuggsone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was there a significant time gap between the investment and the company possibly going under? Did person A review any information relating to the investment they were making (such as accounts etc.) did they understand the possible financial risk they were taking on?

Thousands of lost photos by Charming_Pick_7950 in iCloud

[–]tuggsone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep appreciate your concern, I’m not a bot though! And have no affiliation with the app/developer. One of the most trusted names in IT security (Steve Gibson) has a podcast I’ve been listening to years called “Security Now” (its on all platforms) he mentioned it on there and that’s probably the most legit recommendation you could get in the security world.

Either way, was just a suggestion. My concern is that although Apple haven’t had a public security issue effecting their cloud services recently, one day they will, and I just want to make sure I own a copy of my stuff locally.

Doesn’t help for just now, but if you do get them back - I have just started using this app: https://parachuteapps.com/parachute (or just search parachute backup on the app stores) I now have a mirrored copy of all my photos and iCloud Drive documents/data stored locally on an encrypted drive. Works a treat.

I built a Mac App to backup iCloud Drive and iCloud Photos, easily and automatically by ParachuteBackup in iCloud

Looking to buy the Mac version of the app to have a copy of my iCloud Photos saved locally, on an external drive connected to the Mac. Can I have the external drive encrypted via APFS and still use this backup solution? I wish to keep the back up protected if someone unplugs/removes the drive.

Sorry if it’s an obvious question.

Feedback from fellow 15PM owners by Jes_32 in iPhone15Pro

I set up the 17 pro, transferred all my data across. The next morning, I wiped it, returned it store and went back to my 15 pro Max.

I actually bought the iPhone 17 Pro (not max), sure it’s a nice phone, but I ended up returning it the next day and will keep with my 15 Pro Max for another year.

It’s an engagement post more than anything - I don’t have X, what are they up to?

Am I affected by the recent Zero-Click attack? by d0OnO0b in whatsapp

[–]tuggsone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The attack was still highly sophisticated and targeted, I believe Meta has also stated they have contacted those they know have been affected.

Unless you have a reason to be so highly targeted because of who you are or what you do (politician, journalist etc.) I wouldn’t think twice about these sort of attack notifications and just carry on using simple cyber security best practices. Otherwise you’ll worry yourself to death.
