Basically the breathless Wikileaks CIA assertions are almost entirely bullshit. Because end to end encryption works they need physical access to the device they want to hack. That should’ve been the story, that subverting a smart device requires the same high risk on site intrusion by a tech surveillance team that planting any other traditional bug would necessitate. Instead what Wikileaks is selling, the idea that someone at Langley can type a command into their desk terminal and eavesdrop on you through your Samsung TV, has absolutely zero basis in fact.
