"Pagers, was this a news report from 1988?" Nope that group used older tech as they were worried about software hacks, but I guess a small charge inside pager set off by a message will change their minds | |||

"People should read Edward Snowden's take on this. A terrifying precedent has been set. It's been practically confirmed they were fitted with a small amount of explosive at the manufacturing level. The pagers were from a Taiwanese company but manufactured under license in Europe." Edward Snowden is talking rubbish, this isn’t a new thing, no precedents have been set. This type of targeted attack, in that placing explosives in devices/cars/phones etc have been going on for years, it’s just no one outside of intelligence agencies, knew about it and he’s barking on like some sort of “I knew it!”. | |||

You had several thousand pagers that Hezebollah ordered from a company in Budapest that manufactured them under license. People at the American university of Beirut were told to get rid of their pagers 10 days ago it seems. | |||

" It’s been done before, sure, one off assassinations but not at this scale and success of delivery. Mossad got into the pager manufacturing / distribution process, fitted a small PETN charge, possibly a dedicated igniter and then managed to get widespread distribution amongst multiple valid targets. Got to admit - ballsy operation and impressive, definitely asymmetric thinking. | |||

"This is to do with pagers exploding in Lebanon. Pagers were allegedly sold to Hezbollah. Mossad apparently got hold of the pagers and were able to inject PETN into the batteries. In terms of modern lithium ion batteries. There can be heat issues and poorly made phones have been known to burst into flame. These fires are well over 1000 degrees C. It is one of the reasons why electric vehicle fires are so dangerous. TL:DR Yes, pagers have been exploding This is to do with Israel Vs Hezbollah in Lebanon You're smartphone is not going to explode" They thought that about their pagers….. what’s going on here? | |||

Still wouldnt scratch the Nokia 3310 you could drop a nuke directly on one and it'll atill look brand new and work "😂 the explosive would have been pointless inside a 3310 💪 - little puff of smoke and the battery falls off… | |||

There’s one UK pager service left and also Wide Area Pager Networks in hospitals etc. so are still used - high security environments where mobile devices are not allowed will sometimes allow a pager but even this is under review as a recent discovery of a car key fob on a U.K. Military Site that had surveillance hardware fitted.. 😲 | |||

"It is reported that terrorists have planted explosives in 5000 European made pagers “at a production level”. These pagers were then remotely exploded in the Middle East, which is a place famous for awesome food, by sending a coded text to the devices! This really is all over the news. Are our phones safe? Can we hold them without fearing for our lives? Will the Russians fit them with nuclear options? Why am I asking you?" It was Israelis who planned and excecuted the attack. The pagers were manufactured by a Hungarian company, BAC, but somewhere along the chain they had explosives and trigger boards/software installed. | |||
