I'm not surprised. Some years ago, when I installed Blokada, I discovered that my old #Motorola (#Lenovo) phone contacted graph dot facebook dot com every time I connected my Bluetooth headphones. (I assume the reason it did this was to discover which other devices belonged to me, all the better to spy on me.) No #Facebook apps were installed on the phone. Eventually, by learning how to use the Android Debug Bridge (ADB), I found a Facebook process that I couldn't disable or remove.

Unlike your customer's phone, my phone displayed nothing in the Android UI: there was no clue that anything creepy was happening, and no way to disable it.

I solved the problem, kinda, by instructing Blokada to enable a blocklist that blocked all Facebook domains. You could suggest that your customer do the same. But, still, I hate the idea that Lenovo was using my battery power and bandwidth to spy on me with no notification, no consent, and no opt-out.

I'm pleased to say that my #Fairphone doesn't have this creepy spyware and doesn't contact #Meta behind my back.

"Some #Motorola automated #licenseplatereaders... are live-streaming video and car data to the unsecured internet where anyone can watch and scrape them... In a proof-of-concept, a privacy advocate then developed a tool that automatically scans... footage for license plates, and dumps that information into a spreadsheet, allowing someone to track... movements... in real time."

When my cousin was in hospital, I noticed his Motorola Edge cell phone's back was coming off. turns out the battery had swelled up and was about to explode! Brought his phone home and disassembled it (mercy were there a lot of microscopic screws to remove to get to the mother board!)

A new $20 battery from Amazon delivered the next day and it's a happy working phone again. #DIY #Motorola

One of the thousands of Motorola Apolo pagers that blew up across Lebanon and Syria yesterday during and Israeli terrorist cyber attack.


The Taiwanese company says that they outsourced the production of thesd devices to a company in Bulgaria.

So everyone is trying to put the blame on others. The casing of the device was also changed to something much heavier and stronger to maximize the impact of the small explosive that was added to the device.

NOTHING JUSTIFIES STARE SPONSORED CYBER TERRORISM.


no matter how the media twists this latest massive state sponsored cyber terror attack (since #Stuxnet) against Lebanon, this should be condemned and the role Motorola played in helping the Israeli cyber army to blow up pagers all over Lebanon should be investigated and condemned.

100s of innocent civilians, many of them doctors and nurses were injured during yesterdays cyber attacks against Motorola made pagers that turned them into remote controlled bombs.

PS. The fact that the attack was performed on the 42nd anniversary of #Sabra and #Shatila massacre makes it even worse. one of the worst crimes against humanity that went unpunished and the man behind it later became the PM of Israel.

A fond #memory that I have of the #Macintosh is the #emulated Macintosh that we ran on the #Motorola #68k #Amiga computers
One fabulous game that I played there was from #Ambrosia software and the game was named #EscapeVelocity

When decades afterwards, a woman told me that her name is Ambrosia, I was so pleasantly surprised and told her how I know that wonderful name and she was utterly incredibly flattered
