1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:07,440
james you might have seen tech news but you've never seen it like this hit it

2
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:17,840
tech news so how would you like to make a cool million bucks without having to

3
00:00:15,519 --> 00:00:22,880
throw money down the drain on lottery tickets sounds fun or risk apple is

4
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:26,640
offering you just that with its new bug bounty program i don't think it's quite

5
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:30,480
that but it's designed to entice folks to find flaws with iphone security

6
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:34,640
although apple had previously offered prizes of two hundred thousand dollars

7
00:00:32,160 --> 00:00:39,280
to invited researchers only the company is now opening up its top reward to

8
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:43,520
anyone who can fully control an iphone via hacking but if you are an actual

9
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:47,280
cyber security professional apple will be offering modified iphones that will

10
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:50,800
be a little easier to break into that's always nice with the hope that serious

11
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:54,480
bugs are discovered before they get rolled out to the masses apple's cash

12
00:00:53,039 --> 00:00:58,879
rewards have been responsible for uncovering more than four dozen serious

13
00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:04,000
issues since 2016 so if you think you have the hacking chops go give it a try

14
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:08,000
a million dollars can buy a lot of galaxy s10s which you should definitely

15
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:13,040
be getting instead of the note 10. if Linus hot take

16
00:01:10,479 --> 00:01:16,720
it's not really hot it's a warm lukewarm take while we're on the subject

17
00:01:14,960 --> 00:01:22,960
of hacking iphones one security researcher has discovered and developed

18
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:24,720
a sneaky new way to break into idevices

19
00:01:22,960 --> 00:01:28,000
i don't know we're gonna find out by packing modified hardware into a

20
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:31,680
standard looking lightning cable researcher mike grover was able to

21
00:01:29,759 --> 00:01:36,960
establish a wireless connection with a connected iphone and subsequently

22
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:41,040
subsequently and subsequently gain full control over it although grover stated

23
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:45,360
that a direct connection would work from up to 300 feet away the cable could also

24
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:49,600
be set up to connect to a wireless network allowing the hacker remote

25
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:53,119
access from anywhere although at this point the fake cable is a prototype it

26
00:01:51,439 --> 00:01:56,799
does demonstrate a sneaky new way of compromising your own security which you

27
00:01:54,799 --> 00:02:00,799
shouldn't do grover wants to sell the cables to use for legitimate security

28
00:01:58,799 --> 00:02:05,920
purposes but you may want to think twice about no-name brand cables in the future

29
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:11,039
or if someone you once beefed with gives you one as a gift hey man let's put that

30
00:02:08,640 --> 00:02:15,760
in the past here's a new charger here's a here's a nice steak

31
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:19,680
because we i beefed um okay although megapixels on a camera spec sheet aren't

32
00:02:17,920 --> 00:02:23,680
as important as they used to be samsung has plans to put a still eye-popping

33
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:28,480
number of pixels into your next smartphone 108 million of them to be

34
00:02:26,239 --> 00:02:32,879
specific that's a lot that's too many a new sensor that samsung has developed

35
00:02:30,239 --> 00:02:37,519
with xiaomi called the iso cell bright hmx will feature a 108 megapixel

36
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:42,879
resolution and will also be capable of shooting video in 6k a sensor with this

37
00:02:40,239 --> 00:02:46,879
many pixels is unsurprisingly physically larger that's how reality works which

38
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:50,720
will both improve overall picture quality as well as help low light

39
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:54,720
performance though the larger size means that space constraints might keep it

40
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:57,680
from widespread adoption no word yet on exactly when we'll see it hit the market

41
00:02:56,319 --> 00:03:01,519
though if it finds a way into the upcoming me mix 4 you might be able to

42
00:02:59,920 --> 00:03:05,840
get your hands on it around christmas time and snap plenty of high-res photos

43
00:03:04,159 --> 00:03:10,959
of your weird uncle making everyone uncomfortable at christmas dinner oh joe

44
00:03:08,640 --> 00:03:15,599

52
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:46,480
come on if you're the proud owner of a canon dslr you might want to check for

53
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:50,560
security updates like now

54
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:54,640
do it junior as a flaw has been discovered that enables attacks through

55
00:03:52,319 --> 00:03:58,560
the camera's wi-fi connection the issue is centered around the picture transfer

56
00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:04,560
protocol which isn't secured making it easy for hackers to gain access to an

57
00:04:00,239 --> 00:04:05,360
inserted sd card and install ransomware

58
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:09,599
yeah pay up and if you just photographed say

59
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:14,720
a wedding you might have a lot more to worry about in that case than a lost

60
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:16,479
commission an angry bride you don't want

61
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:20,799
to get in her way fortnite streamer ninja is unhappy over

62
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:24,800
an attack on his now dormant twitch channel after recently switching over to

63
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:29,440
microsoft's mixer yesterday morning someone accessed his channel and

64
00:04:26,479 --> 00:04:33,199
uploaded a two hour porn stream and ninja is also frustrated that twitch has

65
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:37,280
been using the channel to promote other streams ninja has received an apology

66
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:40,160
though i wonder how many unwitting 12 year olds have gotten in trouble with

67
00:04:38,639 --> 00:04:45,759
their parents who haven't got a clue what twitches no they all moved to mixer

68
00:04:45,759 --> 00:04:51,919
i'm not going to comment on that although the future of autonomous vehicles holds a great deal of promise

69
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:57,199
there are still some kinks to work out after a driver in moscow moscow had his

70
00:04:55,040 --> 00:05:02,000
tesla hit a stopped tow truck after which the tesla exploded due to damage

71
00:04:59,840 --> 00:05:05,600
to the battery pack oh gosh the driver and his family fortunately escaped but

72
00:05:03,919 --> 00:05:10,639
for the time being make sure to keep your eyes on the road if you own a self-driving car i'd even go so far as

73
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:13,199
to say stop watching TechLinked if you're behind the wheel of one right now

74
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:19,520
i know we we can take the loss on this one in

75
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:21,280
soviet russia car drives you yeah

76
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:24,160
tinder is tired of giving a cut of its profits to google and apple for

77
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:27,759
processing payments through their respective app stores and will instead

78
00:05:25,919 --> 00:05:31,520
ask singles who want to buy additional features to pay with a credit card

79
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:35,520
directly through the app because of how high profile tinder is it may end up

80
00:05:33,840 --> 00:05:39,919
setting a trend for other apps to follow suit though if you want my opinion

81
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:45,199
paying for online dating isn't worth it believe me i know i don't know that's

82
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:49,280
john saying that i i've never used

83
00:05:45,199 --> 00:05:50,960
a dating app i don't know about those

84
00:05:49,280 --> 00:05:54,880
and although the chinese authorities have been loathed to embrace crypto the

85
00:05:53,039 --> 00:05:58,240
country will soon be rolling out its own electronic currency it's not clear

86
00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:01,919
exactly when it'll be available to chinese consumers but their government

87
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:06,639
would probably want to debut an easy to control digital currency free of foreign

88
00:06:04,319 --> 00:06:10,000
technology sooner rather than later i don't think anything here in canada is

89
00:06:07,919 --> 00:06:15,120
free of foreign tech except maybe our syrup refineries is that a thing

90
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:19,520
dude we have blackberries you know bbm meme oh you mean the phone

91
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:24,319
i thought you're talking about the fruit like blackberry syrup all the above you

92
00:06:21,280 --> 00:06:25,759
ever had blackberry syrup on pancakes

93
00:06:24,319 --> 00:06:30,240
all right that's it for today come back wednesday for more of that authentic

94
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:34,880
tackling flavor you love without any artificial sweeteners

95
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:37,919
and all canadian no american writers syrup all over the place
