Hackers bring multi-boot support to newer iPhones and iPads
Apple makes it easy to upgrade an iPhone or iPad to a new version of iOS and often boasts about the high-percentages of users running the latest version of the operating system.
A few things the company doesn’t make easy? Downgrading to an earlier version of iOS, installing an alternate operating system, or dual-booting. Or multi-booting, actually, since it’s possible to load more than two operating systems.
But folks have been finding unofficial ways to do those things for years. In March we learned about a project to bring Android to the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7+. Now a team of developers have released a guide for dual-booting multiple operating systems on iPhones and iPads with 64-bit processors.
So far the guide is designed to let you run multiple versions of iOS. But theoretically it could open the door to dual-booting Linux and/or Android on an iPhone or iPad.

Guelph police have tool to unlock iPhones and copy contents, with no policy on when or how to use it
The Guelph Police Service has a device that can unlock iPhones and copy their contents, and no policy on when or how it should be used – something that privacy experts said raises alarm bells.
According to a letter responding to a request made by the Mercury Tribune under the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act, the Guelph Police Service (GPS) confirmed that it owns what is called a GrayKey, a tool developed by Atlanta-based tech company Grayshift.
The GrayKey, according to Grayshift’s website, can unlock iPhones and “extracts encrypted or inaccessible data” from said device.
The letter from GPS adds that there is no internal policy or procedural documents about the device, and no directives have been issued by police leadership on its use. As well, the letter notes that the GrayKey “is used only by our technological crimes detectives.”
