Wow! I just got to dust off my iPhone 5s and install this update.

This is really quite something. A security update for an iPhone 5s? That’s 9 years!

Try that for size, Android peddlers. :+1: Apple

Hmmm, if I can find my iPhone 6 from when I packed it for the move last year. As it is my backup spare to my iPhone 12, I may need it in the future.

However I’m glad Safari 13.1.2 in MacOS 10.13.6 on my iMac Mid-2011 isn’t vulnerable!
