Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
I just received a message that I have been hacked after visiting an adult website (?? not that I’m aware of) and that I needed to update apple security within so many seconds. Usually o don’t fall for this, but when I clicked on app to take me to app
