Un million d’euros. C’est la somme qu’a promise, lundi 21 septembre, l’entreprise Zerodium à qui trouvera une faille informatique dans iOS 9, le nouveau logiciel qui équipe les iPhones.

Tous ces panneaux (une vingtaine dans la métropole lilloise) reçoivent leurs informations à afficher par radio, selon un langage particulier, envoyé depuis un émetteur central.
