How to stop my iPhone from being hacked?

Anyone else been hacked and their phone is mirrored to another device and they have 100% complete access to everything in your phone 24/7? I’ve been dealing with it for a year now. All the 2 factor authentication, encrypted bologna, Face ID, means absolutely nothing when your screen is mirrored to your crazy ex. Wondering what others have done to finally rid the phone of this ridiculous attack of privacy and sanity?

If what you report here is as claimed (and I’ll reserve judgement), then you are being targeted with exploit tooling worth multiple millions of dollars, and with individual exploit chains worth millions, and tooling more commonly used for espionage, and for access to those people and organizations of interest to governments and government agencies.


Accordingly, your entire current approach here will seemingly be less than successful, if what you write here is what has happened in this case.


You really need to rethink your entire approach here given your reported massive value to your attackers, and you will absolutely need digital forensics and a detailed review of your entire approach to your own security.


And to what data you maintain, and with what communications equipment you have with, too.


Based in what you’re reporting, you’re far beyond the help that can be offered here. Or by anybody absent digital forensics, device access, and a detailed discussion with you. (That review is also not going to be cheap.)


And as this has reportedly been ongoing for a year, whatever the issue here—whether the involvement of very expensive exploit tooling, or maybe the issue here is something else entirely—it’s just not going to change with this posting, or with your current approach.

No way, “my guy”! Except you haven’t considered the very possibility that it was in fact possible that my husband was the opposing force and allowed access to my device physically when I would have never thought. I have had to deal with this likely for a decade in certain ways - but precisely this situation for a year and it has taken a lot of imagination and intuitively thinking ahead to just try and catch up. Be careful…they are always 10 steps ahead. Almost like you and I have been through the EXACT same complex invasion of life and wellbeing. Sorry to hear “my dude”…I’m still learning of more loss and mourning everything I ever worked for. Prayers for you and yours as you travel the real “boulevard of broken dreams” (thought maybe based on your name you may like Green Day). I have over time collected plenty of insight through evidence and an insightful, innovative guided approach when evidence or resources were available.

I would love to, and if the “green elephants” visualizing guy can relate….if too much is disclosed I know I fear the safety of myself and family members…if the bad guy knows everything I used to store in my phone and able to view all that data as if they were me…they know too much and could absolutely add injury to insult, if you will. There has been no safe, or effective way to resolve any of this.

I sincerely understand what you are saying, however if the perpetrator(s) are able to access such private information…not only identities are at stake, however I have been in fear for my physical safety as well. To post evidence, would allow too many vulnerabilities in a public forum. However, if I can reach that one person that may know more than I do and has similarly been through something like this (this seems to be of rarity for the offenses kind), and there are any shared commonalities that may be helpful to one another in the interim…that’s the one person I was hoping to reach, as well as bringing awareness to others to hopefully stop this suffering before anyone else has completely lost their livelihood.

Not true, it has been saved several times but the offending force has undermined and undone every single setting, time and time again. Remember they are cloning my data and once that is done they have full right of way to change my information as they so please without me even seeing until I notice these little discrepancies. Im on the exact opposite side of the country, and it reflects that way from my device but this is how they are enabled and since I don’t know quite enough about how they are taking the primary drivers seat…and no one has cared to about these little details…they are getting away with stealing every last bit of my identity. It’s the little details that have shown me what is happening. Such small things, no one has cared to hear me out until now I have a stack of these little details…it’s crazy!

Hello.


This is quite trivial: all you have to do is change the time zone in your phone.


For all the other stuff, do you seriously have concrete evidence your husband is running some crazy device security compromising operation? I see these posts very rarely. If you truly are compromised, quit dragging this on and change your credentials and your phone.


If you want to get to the end of this, do some digging. Try to get to the bottom of this. If your husband truly has the capability to run such an operation then he knows how to cover his tracks. This is quite a wild goose chase.
