No way I'm buying a PS5 Pro now.

I can't see them bothering to do that though, they've almost certainly been snooping on absolutely everything that was being sent to those pagers (and other comms devices) and burning them all like that is a waste. I think what X201 said seems the most likely thing, they'd been blown so they thought fuck it and hit the kill switch.

The weird thing is that pagers are incredibly insecure, so I don't even get why they were using them. A $50 RTL SDR with PDW Paging decoder software is all it takes.

They were probably more worried about GPS, Bluetooth and WiFi.

I guess so, you can read the message, but it gets send to a number, but you don't know who has that pager or where it is.

Is this some sort of fuck up by Mossad, assuming it's them as it doesn't seem likely for anyone else? Indiscriminately blowing up technology seems like a real waste of the effort put in rather than targeting things surgically at individuals. It's terrorism though and certainly criminal. It's very on-brand for Mossad both to be indiscriminate and to fuck things up. It's not just the treatment of Palestinians that's made the Israeli government unpopular and distrusted, but a long tradition of shit like assassinating innocent people, or that Yitzhak Shamir, before joining Mossad and later becoming prime minister, started out as a terrorist who among other things orchestrated the murder of UN negotiator Folke Bernadotte (who had saved thousands of people from German concentration camps before the end of WW2). They've never not been crazy.

No weirder than the House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha on the throne of England, and at least we both avoided the bloody Habsburgs. One of the better choices of ruler for us: Ran out of royals, imported competent French general, declared war on France, got Norway as a prize.

New Phase appears to be full on conflict with Lebanon.
