Hey. Do you remember the story with encrypted Encrochat messenger? The same happened with Sky ECC
The governments want you to use only their soft like WhatsApp, Facebook and other apps that are under their control.
Law enforcement agencies in the Netherlands and Belgium reported about operations Argus and A-Limit aimed at Sky ECC, which provided a platform for the exchange of encrypted messages to criminal groups around the world.
Sky ECC worked in the same way as the infamous Encrochat. The Encrochat phones guaranteed their users absolute anonymity since they did not have a device or SIM card linked to the client's account and were purchased under conditions that guarantee that it is impossible to trace their origin.
Sky ECC operators followed the same pattern: They physically changed the details of the phones (removed microphones and switched off the GPS functions), as well as installed their encrypted messaging apps on the devices.
Customers of the company could use the Sky ECC app on their own devices running Android, BlackBerry, and iOS, or they could purchase already modified and protected devices. In addition to the modifications described above, the devices were equipped with an alarm button, with which it was possible to quickly erase all data in the event of an emergency or arrest. Renting such a gadget cost from 800 to 2200 euros for six months.
