I see no way to direct a bulk of phones to any particular subset of "bad guys," unless the phones (or laptops, or tablets) are purchased in bulk by the black hats. In that case, a batch could be special prepared, but more than a few people would know about the special prep.

Generally, it is more likely any batch of "special" phones is MORE secure, not less secure. Backdoored phones are more likely "one off" and targeted to specific bad guys.

I don't think the recent photos are from black hat phones, images then taken from them by team-Q and shown in public as a demonstration that the black hats are on insecure devices. Major tip of hand if possible/true, stupid move.

Yeah I really don’t get the point of that picture storm at all.
