FBI says probing China-linked telecom hack | DW News

Sources in the US say suspected Chinese hackers have targeted the phones of Donald Trump and his running mate for the White House JD Vance. Phones associated with the campaign of Democratic nominee Kamala Harris may also have been targeted.
An FBI statement did not give any names but said it was investigating what it called 'unauthorized access to commercial telecommunications
infrastructure by people associated with China.' It was not immediately clear what data, if any, had been accessed.

Forgive me for pointing out the obvious, but if the news anchor lays out a report and interviews a journalist who says the exact same things as he just said, and it is all allegations with no consequences as far as we can see, then you have no story and should not be making a video IMO - the Chinese no doubts spies, but this is too short a fragment to make sense. Context, please!!!
