This same kind of hack was mentioned in Mr. Robot nine years ago and it isn't fixed. https://www.theverge.com/2016/9/7/12835320/mr-robot-hack-rep... (Back then it was fax-based.) I'm not surprised but I am annoyed that we can't fix this.




Police will complain about "endless pointless red tape" if it's fixed.

They complain about endless red tape right now, when they barely have to send a properly formatted letter to a company to receive tons of personal data

Maybe some verification upfront would save a lot of red tape later.

That requires long term thinking. Which nobody does anymore.
