Intercepting a cell phone call by a man in the middle attack ... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triggerfish_(surveillance) Other than the FBI stalking a criminal element in an unmarked van parked across the street stuffed with sophisticated electronic equipment, I don't believe this theoretical possibility translates to a worrisome probability of malicious behavior for the R.H.
