Telecom hack used tools first set up to spy on Amiericans
The “worst hack in US history” was greatly aided by the tools already in place, that were designed to allow the government to monitor, record, and analyze Americans’ calls, texts, and data use.

The suspected Chinese hacking group is said to have hacked the system we ourselves created, but apparently couldn’t keep secure.

Well done. Nice job. Good grief are we stupid, or what?
