@haseeb Sounds like having efani wouldn’t have stopped that attack though
English

1,400+ users hacked with a single missed WhatsApp call. No tap. No click. Just hacked.
Let that sink in.
The recent $167 million verdict against NSO Group exposed how terrifyingly easy it was to infect phones using a "zero-click" attack. All it took was a missed call. The spyware piggybacked on WhatsApp’s call feature, forcing the device to connect to an external server - and boom, Pegasus was in.
They didn’t need your password. Not your face. Not even your fingerprint.
Just your phone number.
This isn’t just a corporate espionage issue. It’s a roadmap for future attacks. If a private spyware firm can silently hijack devices, imagine what bad actors can do when this technology trickles down. Combine this with SIM swapping and you have a nightmare scenario:
❌ Your phone number gets ported
❌ Your device receives a silent malicious call
❌ Your accounts are drained while you sleep
We’re reaching a point where cybersecurity isn’t just about strong passwords or two-factor authentication. It’s about securing the very infrastructure that delivers those factors. And unfortunately, mobile carriers remain one of the weakest links.
If this doesn’t push the industry to rethink mobile security from the ground up, I don’t know what will.
What would it take for you to consider your phone number a critical security vulnerability?

Correct.
I get hate for saying it, but I have traveled extensively enough in the US to say confidently that most of America is a place to make money -- not a place to live.
We are still a fundamentally colonial country in the sense that it's an open-air work camp. You're either making money as a hot-shot round-the-clock striver or you're just sort of sitting there and everyone wonders why you aren't chasing the bag -- even if the luxuries that the "bag" affords you are dubious at best.
Once you've got yours -- whether you're money-rich OR time-rich -- it's only sentimentality or inertia that keeps people here. Not that there's anything wrong with sentimentality, but it seems pretty clear that those with sentimental attachment to America make a sacrifice for their attachment.
I'm not sure it's my hill to die on. Seems that everyone's too busy 'chasing the bag' out here to enjoy life, and the dynamics of the "work camp" hierarchy are not favorable to those who do not care much for money.

Americans with options want "out" at the same time that everyone else on earth wants "in." Counter-intuitive? Not at all. Does a factory owner want to live inside the factory? Once people have an income producing ownership stake in USA, they start thinking about Ibiza.
