> I mean, I’m just guessing here but here’s an attack I think they probably did; first, imagine if they hacked into the phone of one of these ISIS media people and then on that phone, they stole the private decryption keys for that phone. This would be the key used to decrypt messages to that phone. Then, imagine they hacked into the WiFi network that phone was on and somehow captured all the traffic to that phone. Somewhere in that traffic are the private chat messages to that phone and with these private keys, I’m guessing it’s technically possible to decrypt those messages. This would be a pretty complex hack but I bet it’s something that US Cyber Command could do.

Yeah.. probably not how it happened.
