🚨 Worst hack in our nation’s history: That’s what one senator’s calling the Communist China attack on U.S. telecom companies. They listened to phone calls and read text messages for months. The kicker? They’re still in the system, and getting them out might require physically replacing old equipment. So far, around 150 people are confirmed to have been hit, but this number could hit the millions as more details come to light.
🚨 Hackers never sleep: The Communist Chinese hackers who breached U.S. telecom companies recently did far more damage than first reported. Initially, we heard “Salt Typhoon” only accessed call logs and SMS messages of diplomats and government officials. Really, they were poking around for at least eight months and may have captured data from who knows how many people.
Speaking of Warren Buffett: He just bought a $185 million stake in the HEICO Corporation, an aerospace and electronics giant. The company makes products for spacecraft, defense equipment and telecommunication systems. Yep, it’s a direct SpaceX competitor.
🇨🇳 Communist China tapping phones: The FBI and CISA confirmed Chinese hackers have breached multiple U.S. telecom providers to tap specific Americans’ phone calls. Details are slim, but I’m sure it’s why Verizon, AT&T and others were down. PSA: If you’re running for office, use a burner phone.
