From TFA, but I switched the paragraph order for this TLDR;<p>&quot;Cellebrite is an Israeli company whose main product, a typically laptop-sized device called the Universal Forensic Extraction Device (UFED), can rip data from thousands of different models of mobile phones. That data can include SMS messages, emails, call logs, and much more, as long as the UFED user is in physical possession of the phone.&quot;<p>&quot;The breach is the latest chapter in a growing trend of hackers taking matters into their own hands, and stealing information from companies that specialize in surveillance or hacking technologies.&quot;

&gt; “To be honest, had it not been for the recent stance taken by Western governments no one would have known but us,” the hacker told Motherboard. The hacker expressed disdain for recent changes in surveillance legislation.<p>What specific changes are they referring to?<p>&gt; The hacker, however, remained vague as to the true extent of what they had done to Cellebrite&#x27;s systems.<p>This part of the article where they cite the hacker&#x27;s answer to this question is a totally useless part of the article IMO.

Didn&#x27;t read the article, curious how you steal 900GB of data, what kind of internet speed do you have? No one noticed this much data being pulled? I don&#x27;t personally track my server&#x27;s bandwidth usage. Guess it&#x27;s time to read.
