This is not new. This tactic was developed and used in the 1990s and highly classified as such. Israel/U.S. (mossad/us clowns) were using cell phones originally. It was very effective. This is how it played out in the early days of use: a known terrorist is selected and through the mystery of radio frequency hoo doo voo doo magic the target's phone mysteriously starts acting "wonky". Coincidence the target was called by phone manufacturer representative saying certain models of phones were reporting unusual problems while asking if this phone was having "issues"?, if so the problem can be corrected, free of charge, of course. Target brings phone in for repair/upgrade. Target given a "temporary phone" (lesser value of targets phone to ensure he returns). Several days later Target gets a phone call. Target is told his phone is ready for pickup. Target gets phone back. Sometime later target gets a follow up phone call to confirm customer satisfaction. Target is asked to confirm their identity. Signal is sent over the air while phone is next to targets head and Ka-blooeey". Target eliminated. Lather, rinse & repeat.

Today the electronics leave the original manfacturers facility and "somehow" find the way into a Clown/mossad facility where they are "altered", repackaged and shipped out to their final destinations.
