  • It’s become common for users to receive this popup window on their iPhone. Explaining that their password has appeared in a data leak. It’s a concerning message that most users want to know more about. And that’s what I’ll explain in this video.

      they take the raw passwords, hash it (which cannot be reversed), erase the raw passwords (so you only have an irreversible hash), and check those hashes against your password.
      and your email is also checked.

    Sorry, I put this on your last video not knowing that you were posting half an hour later. I used to work at my local apple store as a genius. My friends always ask me why the iPhone doesn't support the apple pencil, I'm sure you're also asked often. It'd be cool if you made a video about it and here's the reasons: Number 1: There are hardware capabilities, the ipad is built with a special display that supports and recognises the movements of the pencil. Number 2: The size. The largest iPhone has a 6.7 inch display and the apple pencil 2nd generation is about 6.5 inches long and the 1st generation is 6.9 inches long. Its too large to sit comfortably on top of an iphone to wireless charge and too long to sit inside the lightning port. Thirdly: It just doesn't look appealing to see someone on their iphone with a white thing hanging out of the botttm and the it doesn't match any of the colours of the flagship iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max. Lastly: The iPad battery is much larger and takes 15 seconds to charge an apple pencil for half an hour whereas an iphone would take about 7 minutes to charge the same amount. It takes 28 times the charging time. It is rumoured that in the next few years, apple will drop the iPad mini from the lineup in favour of a large display iphone with pencil support. Hope this helps for a potential video, hopefully if it did get made into a video, my friends would stop pestering me about it.

    The information that you receive on Apple devices is about a “data leak”. The narrator talks about a data leak, and how it happens. Yet, the video shows a message from Apple about a “data breach”. A data breach is much more serious, and means that you are at real risk of having someone steal your information. There is a difference between data leak and data breach, and the narrator should not mix the two.
