popular social media account handles go for 4 figures.
people have wallets on their phones with 6+ figures in crypto
OSINT'ing a billionaires' phone number, leveraging a 0-click, and you are looking at 8+ figure trade, personal, and national secrets.
- sangnoir 5y agoThis has already allegedly happened to Bezos (attacked by Saudi Arabia IIRC, which is an NSO customer). This was likely over his ownership of Washington Post and the reporting on the killing of Kashoggi. Yeah, billionaires and Trillion-dollar company CxOs have to step up their electronic security
- Jerrrry 5y agoBezos willingly gave his personal Watsapp number to a Prince, just to "be in touch", and got hacked as a direct result. The Saudi's wanted leverage, gotten via Bezo's affair, but the US cannot let (national security) leverage escape our borders - and leaked his affair. Shit is just lulz to me.
- dillondoyle 5y agoThose conversations are important for a CEO like Bezos though. Let's not pretend MBS is not mega powerful. I would say those type of relationships for multi nationals is probably a bigger value/part of the ceo work than like micro managing teams. But it's super stupid he had just one phone combining personal, business, more private business. At least from the reporting that's what it sounds like happened. Even the dumb ass Jan 6th coordinators and Meadows used burner phones. IIRC standard practice for political 'execs'/important leg committee staff.
