      Yes. It’s not a news article. The article is promoting a podcast of an interview with someone who wrote a book about that story. You know sometimes books are about things that happened in the past.

        It’s by Joseph Cox who did a lot of reporting on the phone while they were at Motherboard. Quite good tech journalist.

        Only if the book has pictures in it. Otherwise those things didn’t happen.

          It is technically a news article, it’s just by a guest writer who is writing an abridged version of what they covered in their podcast.

          You can calm down. The content won’t hurt you.
