Hacker Steals Customers' Text Messages from Android Spyware Company

 It just keeps happening. A hacker has targeted a company selling Android spyware marketed to monitor children, employees, and previously romantic partners.

This data breach is the latest in an ever increasing list of vigilante hackers focusing on the consumer spyware industry, some parts of which have been linked to illegal stalking and spying by abusive partners.

 “These spy apps should be out of market, most people spy on girls and [their] data image [...] always sensitive,” the hacker wrote in a message to an intermediary who then shared it with Motherboard. “No one have rights to do that and same these apps and provider making money by doing this.”
