Signal CEO Moxie Marlinspike has hacked a cybersecurity research firm known as Cellebrite, which was also known to be a partner of the police with regards to investigations and several online systems. Cellebrite was known to help police and other clients in breaking into phones by exploiting vulnerabilities, something used ironically against them.
