How #Apple plans to #update new iPhones without opening them
But what if you could update the device while it's still in the box? That's the latest plan cooked up by Apple, which is close to rolling out a system that will let Apple Stores wirelessly update new iPhones while they're still in their boxes. The new system is called "Presto."
NSA & CIA thank you for the possibility to install Trojans via update.

≪ Leider doch nur noch Schrot ≫
Nachdem der erste TP-Link WDR 4300 den ich geschenkt bekommen habe, "abgeraucht" ist, habe ich heute einen anderen gebrauchten aber leider gebrickten bekommen.

Damit haben beide doch nur noch Schrottwert ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
