I think I know what it was all about.

The Germans have introduced the Trojaner on my your cell phone(s).

German federal police use Trojan virus to evade phone encryption
A report in German media has said that the BKA accesses data before it is encrypted and inaccessible. While police argue the tool is essential for investigations, critics have warned of a state invasion of privacy.

Germany's Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) is using a Trojan virus as a tool to access data of suspected individuals on their smartphones before the information becomes encrypted by apps such as Telegram and WhatsApp, according to a report by German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung and public broadcasters WDR and NDR.

The BKA uses the controversial software, which it refers to as "source telecommunication surveillance," to take advantage of security gaps that exist unbeknownst to the public.

The BKA maintains that using the virus allows them to more effectively investigate digital communication, but security experts say that the tool could be used by criminals. In addition, anti-surveillance activists argue that its use is an invasion of personal security by the state — a sensitive subject in Germany given the country's history of surveillance, both under the Nazi regime and by the state police in communist East Germany.

See, only the French could tell you the truth about those Germans.

Noting nefarious? At the same time they're meeting in Davos? That's how they do it, man. Make you think nothing nefarious is going on because they're out partying and wham! Just like that.

Another site I go to almost every day was down yesterday and they also thought it was nothing nefarious. Every time I tried accessing the site it was all in French.
