Made in China iPhones and other electronic devices should be relatively safe.
Assembling
the iPhone and inserting the tiny explosive will not be without the
knowledge of those doing the assembly. Those pagers that exploded were
traced to a source in Hungary according to some sources, with the
production license granted by the Taiwan company under some kind of
arrangement. I do believe the Taiwanese company is not producing pagers
in Taiwan anymore as pagers are already totally obsolete for decades.
There
is also the possibility that those pagers without explosives may likely
have been substituted during delivery from the factory, which is a
possibility, and here the problem is really difficult to contain. Any
electronic production outfit anywhere in the world could be compromised.
And that brings into focus the question of how such terrorist
attacks will also target other sectors like mass food poisoning. As I
said before, this is just indiscriminate killing of innocent people who
have nothing to do with the conflict in the Middle East. They are
non-combatants and killing them is a crime by any definition.

I was really amazed by how they tampered with very expensive brandy bottles by substituting the contents inside with cheap brandy and sold as the expensive stuff.
ReplyDeleteWill the madness come to that? Everyone can play the same game.
Fyi, there is no production of any pagers factory in Hungary. The company that had the pagers license had only a registered office there. It could be that someone in the Taiwan factory is being bought to do it.(the batch of pagers is then route to different country to appear that it is not from Taiwan). One also noticed that no international media is calling this a terrorist attack. (probably not allow to call Israel terrorist).

China is conducting a nation wide review of all products and equipment using foreign software to weed out all the embedded dangerous bugs that could control or blow up equipment, products, aircraft, computers, mobile phones etc etc. This review is targeted for completion by 2027.
