It's understood the Labor frontbencher received a link from "a trusted friend", which led to her WhatsApp account being hacked.

    I can’t help but observe that my attack surface is considerably reduced simply by avoiding meta properties. I know not everyone can do that. Just an observation.

      my cunning plan to avoid such attack vectors is to have no friends, that way i know a link from someone even claiming to be a friend is to be avoided.

      jokes aside, i don’t use any Meta products either but to be fair, it’s an attack vector because it’s popular.
