FYI

“ They also said they don't know if browsers such as Firefox are affected because they weren't tested in the research.”

Seems you should be fine if you follow the usual protocols though: don’t open suspicious links, check urls, that sort of thing. I expect a frantic phone call from my mother-in-law who has an iPhone 8 any minute now…
