Chinese Hack Targets U.S. Mobile Data, Officials Urge Encryption
A Chinese espionage campaign has reportedly compromised data from hundreds of thousands of US mobile phone users, including high-profile government officials, by exploiting vulnerabilities in major telecommunications networks. The operation, which may have lasted over a year, allowed Chinese hackers to access call logs, text messages, and even audio calls. The FBI and Homeland Security have acknowledged the breach and are working with telecom companies to address security gaps, though the full extent of the infiltration remains unclear.
