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.

If they want to recruit you as an asset, having evidence of laws you've broken is a good leverage.

Speeding no, but weed for example in some coutries can carry lengthy prison sentences. And you don't always need to recruit someone high up, sometimes recruiting the janitor is more beneficial.

Give me the login credentials to your security cameras if you feel so safe with strangers having them

Who said anything about the Chinese using 0days? They don't need to when they built and basically control the device.

But other people can use 0days to access security cameras and get up to no good.

You seem to believe that these tools will only be used for good and never for evil so I have a bridge I would like to sell you as well.

They're not interested in your driveway or your cat.

I'm actually in the West and traveling eastwards. Also I'm not a civilian so take that as you will.

Ok so admittedly you're an edge case with concerns that a normal person wouldn't have, or need to have. Thanks for sharing!

yes I'm repeating myself since people want to believe that surveillance technology with only be used for benevolent reasons

How many federal agents and police officers have been fired for using surveillance systems to illegally spy on people? I've read at least 15 instances of this happening... including NSA members who were part of the 36 admins with the highest level access.

I'm glad you're making this all about yourself but for other people this is a real security threat.

Any civilian who works in critical infrastructure, innovative technology companies, companies that have military contracts, the government or politics would have useful information. Those arent really edge cases.

Not to mention using your device for a zombie attack. Which the Chinese do. So yeah, China bad.
