The first worm for iPhone helped the author to get a job

Some time ago we wrote about the fact that a certain Ashley Towns (Ashley Towns) from Australia, working under the pseudonym Ikee, created worm for the iPhone, which changed the wallpaper on your desktop smartphone photo of singer Rick Astley. This harmless trick allowed hackers to create a template of the first worm more complicated and much more dangerous, theoretically capable to unite the infected iPhone into a botnet. However, punishment for his "prank» Ikee has not suffered. On the contrary, he was offered the job. Now it will be the developer of applications for iPhone in the state Mogeneration firm. This was told himself ikee tweeted.

Mogeneration software company known for such applications as the iPhone Lingopal, Xumii and children's game Moo Shake !.

Admission Townes to work in a company that creates programs for your device, it may seem somewhat surprising, or for someone outrageous step. However, opinions differ on this point: it is precisely Ikee conveyed to many users, the promise of the need finally to take more seriously the protection of their iPhone.
