Interesting study. Do we know who else than Apple implements PIN blacklists?

Also, this lego iPhone testbed is glorious.

I think Lego should release a Maker or similar kit. Something with a bunch of Technic Lego in it, plus some normal bricks.

That's just Lego

True enough. Although there's some custom pieces that could be useful, like the big flat pieces used in the SHIELD Helicarrier for the runways: https://imgur.com/gallery/n5TEAhH

And Lego's designers could lend their expertise to creating some wiring routing and harnesses, or design some mounts/surrounds for breadboards. Or mounts for standard SoC boards like the ESP32 or Mega2560.

I think Apple should release a phone that you can hack yourself if you want to, so you could just write a program that grabs the screen instead of building a LEGO camera rig.

There is no robot hand touching the screen though.
