It's already too high up given it's a blatantly baseless accusation. I'm confused why you think it's more credible than the article when it provides zero evidence.


True. Evidence one way or the other is needed.


Both articles provides zero evidence other than concept of attack in general and all of them just claiming that mobile numbers can be hacked.
