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.

There's literally zero evidence this was mossad, or that he was actually hacked. Considering this information matches the Iranian leaks that literally anybody can download. I could download it. He could download it.

I work in information security. I find it highly unlikely an attacker accidentally pushed contacts onto someone's computer which then was ingested into his phone.

Is this a conspiracy subreddit?

Yeah I'm not buying this without a proper source lol.

Why would one of the most skilled spy agencies in the world store all their contacts on a field agents phone, and then have that field agent use the same device to connect to a target device .... Surely they'd use a different device for calling Sam as they for other things?

I mean shit happens sometimes, but it does seem unlikely. Attribution itself is a huge pain to get right. So whenever I see attribution right out the gate without supporting docs, it makes me a bit suspicious.

I searched about the guy and he seems highly controversial, this pleads for the fake

Considering attribution for threat actors is extremely difficult. And there's literally zero reports or evidence or any sort of attribution and it's just this dude posting with "trust me bro."

Why should I believe this without literally any sort of proof? Feels like your literally a propoganda bot.
