    So I’m basically screwed on iOS? No way around that until a software update?

    As usual, Safari’s lack of site isolation shows it’s impact.

      People here seem to prefer Safari not having site isolation as long as they save a few hundred MB in RAM use and half an hour of longer battery duration compared to Blink browsers.

      I like Safari but this is a bummer.

        Well It’s not like there is choice on iOS. Also not just site isolation: https://www.wired.com/story/ios-security-imessage-safari/ Unfortunately the most secure browser (Chrome) is also the least privacy respecting.

    That’s alarming. Also, for some reason, the steps listed enable debug mode to enable the safeguard (in beta) doesn’t work for me. The ‘Debug’ menu option doesn’t appear.
