Izixhobo ze-IOS zibandakanya umsebenzi oza kusivumela ukuba sifumane i-iPhone, iPod Touch okanye i-iPad ukuba siyilahlile. Olu phawu lokhuseleko kukukhanya kude neminyaka ukusuka kwenye isoftware enje iCaughtU, I-Cydia tweak ethatha iifoto kunye nekhamera yangaphambili apho sifaka khona ikhowudi yethu okanye iminwe ngokungalunganga. Kodwa inye ipatent entsha UApple ucebisa ukuba, kwakhona, uCupertino uya kuxhomekeka kwezinye zejele zokuphucula isoftware kwizixhobo zabo eziphathwayo.
Ilungelo elilodwa lomenzi wechiza elibizwa ngokuba "kukuchonga okungagunyaziswanga komsebenzisi kwiByometric Capture" kwaye ichaza inkqubo Thatha iifoto, ividiyo kwaye ugcine iminwe yabasebenzisi abangagunyaziswanga, ezinokunceda amapolisa ukuba abambe isela, okoko nje kubiwe i-terminal.
Ilungelo lobunikazi licebisa ukuba iCaughtU iza kwi-iPhone
Isixhobo siya kugqiba ukuba sifake ulwazi lwebhayometri ekuphenduleni ekusebenziseni imeko enye okanye ezingaphezulu. Ezi meko zinokuba yinxalenye yeminye imiyalelo yesinye okanye ezingaphezulu izixhobo ze-elektroniki, ukufumanisa ukusetyenziswa okungagunyaziswanga kwesixhobo kunye nezinye izinto. Isixhobo ingagcina ulwazi ekuhlaleni i-biometric, enokuba ngumnwe weminwe, enye okanye iifoto ezingaphezulu zomsebenzisi ongagunyaziswanga, ividiyo yomsebenzisi, izandi zokusingqongileyo kunye nolunye ulwazi olusemthethweni. Ulwazi oluqokelelweyo lunokuthunyelwa komnye okanye kubasebenzisi abagunyazisiweyo.
Un informe publicado en 2014 aseguraba que el isitshixo sokuvula (Ukwenza kusebenze ukutshixa) kwe-iOS 7 kunciphise kakhulu ubusela be-iPhone. Kutyholwa ukuba, amasela ngekhe akulungele ukuthatha umngcipheko wokuba ifowuni abangakwaziyo ukuyithengisa kwixa elizayo. Ukuba iApple ibandakanya lo msebenzi kuhlobo olusemthethweni lwe-iOS, ngaphandle kokusebenzisa i-jailbreak, kunokwenzeka ukuba ubusela be-iPhone buyeke ngakumbi, into eqondakala ngokupheleleyo.
Njengoko sihlala sisitsho, ukuba ilungelo elilodwa lomenzi libhalisiwe akuthethi ukuba siyakuyibona kwisixhobo kwixesha elizayo, kodwa sisebenza sazi ukuba inkampani isebenza kweliphi icala. Ngokoluvo lwam, yinto ekuya kufuneka bayibandakanye kuhlobo lwe-iOS lwexesha elizayo. Kwaye ayizukukwenza kuphela i-Apple kuphela, ukuba ayingabo bonke abavelisi beefowuni eziphathwayo okanye isoftware yabo. Nantoni na ukwenzela ukuba ezi ntlobo zezaphuli-mthetho zingafikeleli kuyo kwaye zenze imali ngento engeyoyazo.
Kwaye emva koko basivumela ukuba senze izinto zobuyatha ezinje ngento yokuba ungayicima ifowuni ngaphandle kokuba nekhowudi yokutshixa okanye isazisi sokuchukumisa, yenza ingqiqo enkulu, ubuchwephesha beApple kwaye inengqiqo njengesiqhelo.
