The Ukraine phones were used by artillery soldiers and, according to reports, were tracked to reveal the gun placements and provide targeting guidance. Except this whole narrative was debunked by the Ukrainian government and it never happened. The piece of code that was supposedly “Russian” was widely available on the dark net and could have been downloaded used by any number of hackers for economic or political purposes. So....
