Last week Google disclosed a large-scale hacking effort that it said targeted users of Apple devices. It was a bombshell story. But now Apple has gone on the attack - angry in public, and absolutely incensed in private at what is being seen as something of a stitch up. Google is standing by its research. In a statement posted on Friday, Apple took issue with Google’s characterisation that this was a broad attack on all iPhone users.
