Ask HN: Hacked or Glitched?
Just a few minutes ago I was writing in notes on my phone when everything I was writing was backspaced and my phone typed tye used you. Can we please discuss whether or not this occurrence was a glitch, a hacker, or my insanity slipping away. I am using an iPhone SE if that matters. Thanks everyone. I kind of feel no one is going to take this post seriously. Please know that my phone has been repaired several times. Sometimes it gets this glitch where it opens and closes all of the apps recently used rapidly. Despite my phone being "repaired" there is obviously still something very wrong with my phone. I can't for the life of me figure out what it is. So the first was for water damage, but the last two times were just for screen and surrounding areas. I have wondered a few times if water damage could be messing with something or maybe the screen was never properly fixed. I go back and forth because it didn't do this until recently, so could it really be water damage? Should I just buy a new phone? And if this post isn't a poster a child for right to repair, I don't know what is! Writing notes where? In an app? Or the native notes app? Was it synced with your iCloud account? There are too many variables at play before one can safely attribute it to an attack. Yes on the native notes app. It's no longer synced to my iCloud because I couldn't afford the storage. Atleast, that's how I assume it works. Are you saying it typed "tye used you"? Yes, I think it had that typo. Usually I chalk my phone typing random stuff to voice recognition despite, turning off everything in my power, but I was just laying in bed reading HN quite as can be when it happen so it really freaked me out. I stand corrected. Yet ty ti used you. Is it just keyboard gibberish?
