Turning Everyday Gadgets into Bombs Is a Bad Idea

If that were actually true you wouldn't be using your phone right now, or you were at least somewhat hesitant to pick it up - and somehow I doubt you are.

If you were in Lebanon, that would be a different story, but making it some global feeling is pretty bs.

I have levels of trust in between "fully trust" and "do not trust in any way". Do I think my phone is a bomb? No. Do I think this technique will be used again, by someone other than Israel? Yeah, I think so.

Ok, but are you actually truly worried that it will happen to your phone out of the blue?

My point is a lot of crap in the world happen, I don't see this being something that will actually occupy anyones mind unless they're in job/role that puts them in harms way.

More worried than I was a few days ago, at least.
