I'm talking about this article that I remember reading last year, but I never fully comprehend it. https://archive.md/qgBWB

Especially one of the images:

What does "BFU Extractions" mean? Does it just straight up bypass any lockscreen, even Before First Unlock?

The first time I came across that article, I just assumed if you have a strong password, your fine, now I'm not so sure, I'm starting to get a bit paranoid... 😖

Interesting. I figured there was just a backdoor in Knox or iOS it was using.
