Your phone's security is a dangerous illusion right now, hackers are silently controlling the third-party vendors that manage critical telecom services, including the fundamentally broken caller ID system that blindly trusts incoming data without verification.

Even worse, your iPhone's activation is handled by outsourced companies with direct access to your Apple account information, while major carriers like AT&T and T-Mobile suffer devastating breaches that expose millions of customers' data.

The most terrifying part? These vulnerabilities aren't secrets - hackers openly discuss and exploit these compromised systems on IRC channels daily, yet the telecommunications industry continues to pretend everything is secure while your personal information is already in the hands of hackers.
