    Not that I think the Israel is the good guy in this conflict, but your argument is pretty weak.

    Pager are designed to be trackable. If you have such deep access to these devices, you know exactly who got called by whom and when.

    Yes, there will be collateral damage, but that’s almost a given in any armed conflict.

      If these were one-way pagers,they are not easy to track, as they don’t transmit messages, but only receive and display them.

        …and you know which telephone numbers send data to the pager and at which time. That is sufficient to track or identify individuals.

        If this is a supply chain attack, the attacker already knows, which pagers are part of the organization they want to target.

        What this thread here shows really well, is that the general population vastly underestimates the abilities of intelligence agencies and technology in general.
