Weeks after defcon, I saw they had a job listing asking for someone with Bluetooth experience and experience preventing denial of service attacks. Sounds like they finally hired someone that knew what was going on here.

It's wild that they'd hire someone to fix one very specific issue.

I guess that's what you get when you can just throw gobs of money at a problem.

Does someone scrape and analyse Apple's job postings simply to make guesses about what's going internally?

I’d be surprised if there weren’t multiple independent teams doing this type of work across the entire NYSE/NASDAQ.

Yes, but it also encourages orgs to put up/keep up non-existent job postings to look like they’re growing/expanding.
