Once, doing some cybersecurity pen testing for a #Bitcoin app, we found a shitload of vulnerabilities. When we advised the CEO of all the vulnerabilities found, he wanted a video conference with their Pakistani devs... So we had that video conference, we went issue by issue, point by point... When that was done, one of the Pakistani devs said: "But hacking is illegal"... 🤣🤣🤣 We where never contacted by that company again, nor did they paid for our services.
Almost had a heart attack 15 days ago, the Dr. said it was stress related... Also said that I have to take care of myself, and that my life is more precious than my job...
One method to secure your communications is:
1. On a crappy, or old phone, you install the SIM, or configure the e-SIM.
2. Use it as a hotspot
3. Use another phone (with no SIM or e-SIM) to connect to the crappy phone with SIM or e-SIM
4. Regular calls will go to the crappy phone, Telegram, Signal, WhatsApp calls will go to the no SIM phone.
Avoid installing apps like Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, WeChat, or other invasive apps on the no SIM phone.
I don't recommend iPhone devices, but you can De-Google an Android phone, or install Graphene OS or CalyxOS on some devices like Google Pixel, and other brands.
Voilà! You're set.
