Intruder Alert.

So now there are charging cables that can be used to hack into your iDevice. Vice.com reports that hackers are making cables that look and act like a regular iPhone lightning charging cable, but there’s extra electronics in the cable that gives them access to the device it’s charging.

Luckily, I’ve never plugged my device into an unknown charging cable but I am going to start looking twice at these public charging stations that are showing up all over the city.
