FBI Taps Hacker Tactics to Spy on Suspects - WSJ.com
This story was being talked about on a technology show in Vancouver and then I saw it being discussed on GeekGamer.TV and someone called in and asked whether or not the new Blackberry phones, given that they have Android (a version of it at least) in them, that this technique, if it did come true, could also be applied to spy on Blackberry products.
For those who of you are more technically inclined, would this be possible on a Blackberry phone?
