lol the phone system is so broken nitter.vloup.ch/josephfcox/statu…

The entire phone system was designed assuming that it was a closed system. Security was all physical. If you can connect, you must be authorized. Opening it up and connecting it to the internet has created a wonderful mess.

I feel like we need to hold up this example when we talk about the zero trust model. Otherwise it sounds like we're just being paranoid.

I can give you lots more. With your phone number, it’s scary how much I can learn about you from the phone network. Your exact location, your home address… I can listen in on your calls or sms without you knowing. Redirect calls and sms. Get your imsi.
