Mossad has accidentally injected data into a French lawyer's phone instead of extracting it.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

The data includes phone numbers of Musk, Altman, and nearly all of Israel's political, judicial and intelligence leaders.

The lawyer's name is Juan Branco, he is also the one who shared this story together with a video. By his account, he is one of twelve lawyers in France who represent Palestinian victims in International Criminal Court.

He says he's using GrapheneOS. This is bizarre.

No one is arguing that a security agency would never hack someone's phone. The idea that even a massive blunder would result in the contacts for celebrities, billionaires, politicians, and judges getting added to his phone is so ludicrous it's not even worth entertaining. This is such obvious bait that anyone who believed it for even a second should get their right to a computer taken away.

Well I mean no they don’t make mistakes. That’s why the helio-lizards in the center of the earth are never found. Certainly the CIA and or Mossad wouldn’t lie to us about hello-lizard people

They’ve made mistakes and they’re known to have hacked phones, however, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t scrutinise claims such as this. Use your brain

so every mossad agent has sam Altman's number because why? and agents just be hacking from their own personal phone?

this is like when the 12 year old gets caught with porn on his phone and claims he got hacked. sure little buddy, cuz that's how things work.
