Australian Federal Police (AFP) has revealed that it was able to decrypt and snoop on the private messages sent via a supposedly secure messaging app used by criminals. The FBI secretly ran the AN0M service, sharing criminals supposedly secret communications in real-time with AFP officers, and other law enforcement agencies around the world. Police encouraged informants to seed the app into the criminal underworld, before it was adopted by drug lords who unwittingly acted as influencers giving the app legitimacy.”]
