It is because Apple has reported that a vulnerability that has now been patched, ‘may have been exploited’, though Apple doesn’t go into detail about which volnerability specifically. Such a report is rare for Apple to publish. From: Brad Snyder Sent: Thursday, January 28, 2021 12:55 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Question about IOS update These security patches are really nothing new. Apple has issued this kind of update before without the news media giving it so much attention. I don’t understand why the update is getting so much attention this time.

My brother in law even called me after he watched the evening news on ABC I think and told me about the major security flaws. So I guess it is not a good idea to wait.
