Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    ever liked a single apple product in my whole life due to over restrictive DRM.

    How is that relevant ? DRM was forced on Apple by the big recording companies. It's been relaxed somewhat in recent years though. If your preference is pirated content to avoid DRM restrictions then you take the risks that go along with sites that distribute it, including malware.
    Seems IOS users need to be concerned even more now.

    If the apps are downloaded from the Apple Store you have little to worry about and it seems the bigger risk is from connecting the iOS device to a Windows computer. Vigilance is important on any device or system.

    DRM relevance is a personal one , I don't see your confusion on that at all ?? Apple is designed to send you into the internal ever consuming, pay-for systems for everything that you want on the device , albeit loosened slightly, its still a platform i have never liked .

    Being USB connected on an already infected pc is the avenue of attack in this case. I never said other wise.

    My objective was to notify all ios users of a security risk and a large one at that.
