Tbh I didn't even read the article. It was just pure clickbait! (Which was foiled when the frigging link didn't even post correctly)

This forum is a POS! Non working links indeed!

Could be operator error. It seems I never have a problem posting a link (that works too).

When you post from your phone all bets are off and it's a free for all.

So from your phone the Forum sw is a POS. Are you seeing a pattern? 

See, I sort of thought phones were for calling people.
 
Man am I old.

Mine even tells me when my laundry is done.

An even smarter phone would tell you when it NEEDS to be done!

What are the chances of a phone ever being able to tell you that it's Sunday?

I still think reply #8 was the best answer. 

It depended on having some malware installed in the system. If they were able to get some malware on the target system then why use such a convoluted method to get the data?
 
Some years back there was a more plausible method of getting the data. It had to do with receiving and interpreting the RF signals produced by the system. No malware needed; only a very sensitive receiver. I believe this is also the basis for the conspiracy theorists using faraday cages for their systems.
