[Exposed by CT Scan] The Terrifying Mod Hidden Inside a USB Cable [It Hijacks Your Phone Instantly]

【概要欄 / Description】
Today's topic: how dangerous a USB cable can be.

It looks like an ordinary white charging cable.
But the moment you use it, it infects your device with malware
and every character you type gets sent somewhere else!
Products like this are actually out there right now.

And a little while back,
the FBI issued an urgent warning telling people not to use public USB ports.

All in one video!
