Why was this flagged? I vouched for it as it would make for an interesting discussion about the security of these devices and how this kind of cyberattack might have happened.
Are smartphones, for example, also vulnerable to it?
I was wondering the same thing.
There might be other explanations than a cyberattack though. The pagers could have been prepared in some way before distribution.
From the videos, it looks like the explosions were quite sudden and remarkably violent for such a small device.
So in addition to people-hunting FPV drones, we now have the equivalent of exploding collars from science fiction movies like Running Man. I don't like where we're heading, but it was probably inevitable that technology would be used this way.
