US: Government Has Planted Spy Phones With Suspects Concerns About Privacy, Security, Free Expression July 13, 2018 https://www.hrw.org/news/2018/07/13/us-government-has-planted-spy-phones-suspects
This is another type of "interdiction" which has been going on for years and years. When I acquire a new machine for hobby use I physically select it at a brick and mortar and buy it directly. I don't even trust Amazon (not worried about Amazon but interdiction in route) if I NEED a pure hobby machine. I know this sounds crazy but it would be the easiest way to get inside of a tough target wouldn't it?
