In this commentary, the speaker discusses a recent Veritasium YouTube video that, in collaboration with university professors and cybersecurity researchers, uncovered a critical vulnerability allowing attackers to withdraw any amount of money from a fully locked smartphone. The exploit works by placing the phone on a specialized reader, which can trigger unauthorized transactions, demonstrated by stealing $10,000 from an iPhone in seconds. The video features a cameo by top tech YouTuber Marques Brownlee, underscoring the significance of the finding. The speaker emphasizes the expertise of the researchers and the potential financial impact, noting that the only limit to the theft is the victim’s account or credit‑card balance.
