      For the NYT, I wrote the boring truth about latest CIA claims. Sorry—nothing sensational. Don't let media alarm you. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/09/opinion/the-truth-about-the-wikileaks-cia-cache.html …pic.twitter.com/SSuzB8qikz

      An accurate WL release would say: "CIA has underwhelming tools, many known, to laboriously hack phones one by one. Update your software!"

          An accurate story on protecting journalists or activists would highlight: update software. Use two-factor. Get a security key.

          The biggest danger is not fancy-pants CIA tools (they aren't even fancy pants). It's phishing. There is much you can do to protect yourself.

          ok good to know. I've been waiting for a distillation of the hacks to know whether to freak out or not.

          Maybe all the tools in the hack were OBE or compromised. Spy bait.

          You already have access to the 99% not yet released parts of #Vault7? Glad to hear, that the CIA has underwhelming hacking abilities
