Passive FTP Found Enabled on MacBook After Apple Store Reset
Original: Background Passive FTP with No GUI Control Survives Apple Store DFU
A security-focused write-up reports that a MacBook returned from an Apple Store device firmware update (DFU) came back with passive FTP enabled in the background, with no graphical interface to turn it off. The author says the setting survived the store reset and documents other post-reset observations, raising questions about what configuration Apple applies during service and how much control users have over it.
Why now: Users concerned about privacy and default system settings are debating unexpected network services surviving an Apple service reset.
