How Does I hacked MKBHD's locked phone Work?

It’s like stealing candy from a locked jar without anyone noticing.

Imagine MKBHD has a really fancy phone, it's like a super-locked jar full of candy, and only he knows the secret code to open it. But someone found a sneaky way in, like slipping a tiny key under the lid while no one was looking.

Think of the phone’s lock as a secret door that needs a special key, usually a passcode or fingerprint. The hacker used a trick called "reverse engineering," which is like figuring out how to open a jar by watching someone else do it from outside.

They took apart the phone's software, like taking off the lid of a jar and looking inside, and found a way to pretend they were MKBHD, using a fake fingerprint or code that tricked the phone into thinking, “Oh, it’s my owner!”

It was like playing hide-and-seek but in reverse, instead of hiding, the hacker found a hidden path and snuck right in! And now everyone can see what's inside the jar.
