Apple freezes iCloud password change over the phone

Apple freezes iCloud password change over the phone

Remember the case of Mat Honan's iCloud account being hacked a couple of days ago. Well, Apple has not sat still, and the fruity company decided to pull the plug on one of their support staff's functions – that is, to stop processing AppleID password changes that are requested over the phone immediately. This bit of information flew onto the Internet thanks to Apple employees who prefer to remain unidentified (for obvious reasons). One of them who knows just what is going on internally informed Wired that the over-the-phone password freeze will not be a permanent solution, but it should last for 24 hours at the minimum.
