Interesting: Hacking SIM Cards, Subverting the System

This article from CNN shows just how controlled and oppressive cell phone technology can actually become.

Imagine you live in a country where your government wants to keep its eye on you at all times. Maybe some embattled African nation where the established regime forces cell carriers to give them access to SMS systems in order to censor your text messages that speak out against such an oppressive regime. This is a reality for some individuals; imagine if your favorite communication tool were turned into a universal spying tool by your own government. Creepy.

Don't forget here at the Cell Phone Doctor we repair phonesbuy used phones and even sell used phones at bargain prices.
