<p class="p1">#Roommates, it’s safe to say coming up on $1 million dollars (legally of course) isn’t something that just happens everyday. Let alone, coming up on $1 million for hacking!</p>
<p class="p1">So if you know how to hack a phone, or know someone who can hack a phone, you may want to listen up! Apple is taking their cybersecurity to new heights with a new “bug bounty” that will offer researchers (that’s just a nicer way of saying hackers) up to $1 million if they can find security hacks.</p>
<p class="p1">According to @Forbes, the bold move makes this the highest bug bounty offer from any major tech company.</p>
<p class="p1">Apparently, Apple isn’t just stopping at iPones. They’re also opening up the offer to their popular Mac computers. So this is how it would work, the full $1 Million would go to the researchers who are able to hack the core of iOS with zero clicks required.</p>
<p class="p1">The generous offer could be a power move to respond to reported leaks of iCloud accounts in the past. A few months ago Apple was sued after <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/a-new-york-student-sues-apple-for-1-billion-after-facial-recognition-allegedly-led-to-his-false-arrest/">facial recognition software led to an accidental arrest</a>. Though there is no true way to prevent all leaks, Apple is making sure it will be as difficult as it’s ever been.</p>
<p>Roommates, are you going to try to shoot for the $1 million bounty?</p>
