SS7 is vulnerable to attack. However, the types off attacks on the video don’t affect Signal as it requires a pin. (Make sure you set your pin to something strong and secure)

    Mobile networks are awful and are very easy to spy on.

    But the video is worth every minute.

      I did watch it in the end after your recommendation, and it was interesting. Thanks!

        I don’t particularly like Linus, but he was bearable in this video. As someone who assumed this was a SIM swap, I was genuinely as confused as he was playing it up when he was able to place calls but not receive them. That was really interesting.
