If he's not wrong what will be the odds on being hacked? Newspapers and "experts" love to scare people, but considering there are millions of mobile phones in the UK, what is the likelihood of being hacked?

It doesn't scare me.

Like it said in the article. ish  ;)
The mobile manufacturers, or the GSM companies, should be held accountable.
We've been sold goods not fit for purpose.

Though I do believe it's just another press scare mongering thing.
Whilst we're talking about this and Prince Philip going to Sandringham,
what else is going on what we don't know about.
