First paragraph: "Apple Inc. said all Mac computers and iOS devices, like iPhones and iPads, are affected by chip security flaws unearthed this week, but the company stressed there are no known exploits impacting users."
Propagating the salient point of the article allows the useful information to be communicated, without loading needless megabytes of adtech UI in your browser.

No one is giving out payloads and telling people they can try this at home, and watch it go. Nothing is known to be in a pastebin or git repo at the moment. This doesn’t mean the black market isn’t crafting kits for sale at a high price right now for big game hunting though.
