Comments by "Sasha S" (@sashas3362) on "How All Phones Can Be Hacked" video.
@robbraxmantech It has actually gotten to the point where simply existing (as a natural human) is now "illegal". You don't even have to do anything. Simply existing is illegal. At least within certain border lines. You know what I mean?

@readypetequalmers7360 The variation in the android devices due to differences in the proprietary OS's created from android have been said to actually enhance android security against hackers because then the hacker has a harder time knowing what OS they are or will be attacking. Of course the unpatched security holes you mention can be exploited by those who have a more privilieged access to your device such as the manufacturer, mobile phone service carrier/provider, and of course the gov (among others).

@robbraxmantech Well said about defending against the maniacs, Rob. The maniacs in gov are getting out of control now even in the "west". BTW I have heard the baseband is better protected these days. It used to be the baseband OS was completely separate from the android or iphone OS and rarely if ever had security holes patched. But due to some widespread malware which targetted the baseband they actually made at least part of the baseband OS part of the android or iphone "OS" so now the baseband can more easily get security updates. Of course, this won't stop hackers from targetting the baseband.

@robbraxmantech To be clear, I'm saying a genocide of the natural human race is underway. This is global. It has literally become illegal to breathe. That may be winding down due to some facts coming to light but the damage may already have been done. It may be too late for most. Perhaps all. Gov is a suicide cult, imo. I mean if they don't kill us with lethal injections it may be with nuclear war. According to EPA data, atmospheric radiation levels are already at extinction level and have been for years. It's claimed this is due to older nuclear reactors which are still active (thanks to gov mismanagement).

@machtschnell7452 Remaining human instead of becoming transhuman by submitting to the genetic modification they are mandating is rebelling against their control. Simply existing as nature designed us is being illegalized. There are signs outside businesses which effectively say "no humans allowed" (although that is not how they word it). Do you know what I mean? It doesn't matter whether you pay taxes or not. They are trying to force everyone to submit to transhumanisation. These mandates affected primarily most taxpayers. You see? They don't care about your money any longer. Money is now obsolete. Humans are obsolete.

@ProudlyINDIAN360 Good question (about how I protect myself from the radiation). It may interest you to know years ago a tech support rep remotely boosted the output power of a phone once (he told me he did that after I asked why the phone was burning me). I believe he did that to cause me harm because I yelled at him a few secomds before he boosted the power and there was no good reason for him to boost the power. It gave me a severe persistent headache although that may have been due to earwax. I went to the doctor about that headache and they removed a plug of earwax which may have been pushing against my eardrum. But I believe that was because the wax got liquified by the heat generated from the phone (which was getting extremely hot) and then hardened against my eardrum. But iirc I got the headache when the tech support rep told me he boosted the phone (while still talking to him). So beware. Anyway I probably should be taking measures to protect myself because the radiation is above safe levels. Thanks for reminding me of that.

@robbraxmantech Yes, one must always do their own research because the facts can vary from device to device and also part to part. Even if it seems to be the same it may have differences. There may be differences between the "generations" (such as "errata" or "erratum" lists published for each batch or generation of CPU!).

@mullergyula4174 Yeah it is beyond most.

@jasonsummers6705 I agree they are too slow for most people though. But many still use them. It is actually misleading for them to say they have shutdown the 2G networks because after they claimed to have shut them down I had a 4G phone and I noticed neither the 3G or 4G icons were showing when I dialed 611 for tech support from the phone service carrier. I inquired about that and after interrogating them thoroughly discovered that the phone was connecting to 611 via 2.5G or above (but below 3G). So when they say they shut down the 2G network they are being deceptive. The phones still connect to 2G networks. BTW it may interest you to know the tech support rep remotely boosted the output power of my phone too (he told me he did that after I asked why the phone was burning me). I believe they did that to cause me harm. It gave me a severe persistent headache although that may have been due to earwax. I went to the doctor about that headache and they removed a plug of earwax which may have been pushing against my eardrum. But I believe that was because the wax got liquified by the heat generated from the phone (which was getting extremely hot) and then hardened against my eardrum. So beware.

Rob do you know if it's legal to flash custom ROMs onto a tablet in the USA yet (replacing the original ROM)? I know congress made it legal for phones years ago but not tablets. But phones are basically small tablets so maybe it is legal to install custom ROMs in tablets after all? Websites say it's illegal though last time I checked.
1
@robbraxmantech I agree with that statement about ownership. I asked because I did hear some recent news about the passage of some new laws which might make it legal now such as what they call "right to repair" laws (or executive orders?). No custom ROM's for tablets? Really? You sure? I could swear I recall seeing some custom ROM's for some tablets. Lineage OS at least iirc. I'll need to check to be sure. That was a while ago. Possibly a few years ago.
1
@robbraxmantech My understanding is it's perfectly legal if the tablet manufacturer allows it and you truly own it. You may not truly own a device though. Especially if it's provided by some cell phone service provider. You must check the licenses for it. Some are subsidized making them more affordable but at the cost of never actually owning it so you forfeit the right to install custom roms unless it's allowed by the license.
1
@robbraxmantech Looks like you're right. Lineage OS does not have any roms for the tablets I thought I remembered seeing. At least not now. None of the android custom ROMs I was thinking of have any roms for tablets. So it's back to the drawing board for me.

I also recall reading that a SIM is a SoC somewhere like wikipedia. You can't believe everything you read online though, especially wikipedia. I also thought I once read a GPS system is now embedded into SIM's. I can't find that info anywhere now.

@mullergyula4174 Fractal antenaes can be compact. Besides that GPS only needs antennaes if it is using normal radio waves (AKA "far-field" waves) to communicate instead of quantum entanglenent or "near-field" waves. SIM cards use NFC iirc. This is not normal radio waves. Although it is commonly believed you need to be very close to a SIM card to communicate with them via NFC it is known that SIM's are trackable via drones and satellites. They may use quantum entanglement to communicate with the SIM. Such communication may be done via NFC. NF communication is NOT done via electromagnetic radio waves after all but rather something else (although related).
1
@mullergyula4174 GPS now uses quantum entanglement (to improve accuracy at least). This is a very obscure fact. I don't know anybody who is aware of that and I cannot cite the source where I read that. It has disappeared. It was reported in a news brief in a science or technology magazine though. Nuts & Volts or Scientific American or New Scientist perhaps. Maybe "Nature" magazine.

Rob seems to be saying the java code of a java card SIM is simply stored on the card not run on it but rather runs on a SoC outside the SIM card.

@robbraxmantech I wouldn't know. I don't mess around with them like you do. I only read about them on occasion.
1
@robbraxmantech Like I said (perhaps in another thread here), a few years ago I read much of the baseband code and functions have been moved to the android or iphone OS to make it more secure. Seems like maybe you are confirming that here.
1
@robbraxmantech I'm wondering if maybe part of the reason 2G and 3G networks are being shutdown is to force people to upgrade to more secure phones with the newer "SIM cards" (meaning the removeable card, whatever it is called these days) which may be more secure because they may not have all the same (reprogrammable) computing capabilities as older SIM cards.
1
@jasonsummers6705 People still use 3G and possibly 2G (2.xG that is not 2.0G). It is not as slow as you may remember it being because those networks are not anywhere near as congested as they used to be now that most people have migrated to the 4G and 5G networks.
1
@jasonsummers6705 That may be all it does but I believe it is capable of doing more, presuming you mean the whole physical card and not merely the SIM app. The whole card contains a complete universal turing computer. It may not be programmed to do much as it comes but can be programmed to do anything (within reasonable limits). IMO it should be programmed to scan and defend against malware and other attacks because it is best to have a 2nd computer do that.
