Excellent thread [MENTION=27425]Listening[/MENTION]. I plan to go over those links carefully.
I have a question for anyone skilled at technology [MENTION=9811]Coriolis[/MENTION] [MENTION=7]Totenkindly[/MENTION] and [MENTION=8936]highlander[/MENTION] come to mind.
To what extent can people hack into mobile phones? I had a friend who was assaulted by someone who was impersonating a friend through text messaging. What I don't know is if he physically had the phone. He works for a security company, so has some tech background, and I was looking online and found you can get set up to text message from a landline on sites like this:
Text-enable Your Business Phone Number with TextBox
I'm wondering if a person could set up other phone lines to text from their computer, and if they can, would they also be able to read texts from remote phones? My friend and I do text message, so I just got a nervous feeling about whether or not those conversations could be hacked into and viewed remotely.
