英国一士兵违令未拔SIM卡致手机被黑、私密照片被勒索：在军事法庭认罪被判关禁闭10个月
伦敦 — 据 Ars Technica 11月7日援引爱沙尼亚媒体报道，一名被派驻爱沙尼亚的英国陆军士兵因违抗拔除手机 SIM 卡的命令，在军事法庭认罪，被降级并判处10个月军中关禁闭。
这名下士 Daniel Barton-Kennedy 已服役七年，其驻地距俄罗斯边境约90英里。部署前，部队出于行动安全考虑反复要求官兵锁定个人设备、拔除 SIM 卡，他没有照办。其后，他的手机被入侵，私密照片被窃取，并有人以此对他进行勒索。
报道说，Barton-Kennedy 对「违抗合法命令」一项指控认罪。这一案件凸显前沿部署部队个人设备管理的行动安全风险：士兵的个人手机一旦被攻破，不仅本人可能遭到勒索，也可能暴露驻地与行动信息。（来源：Ars Technica）
British Soldier Who Ignored SIM-Card Order Was Hacked and Blackmailed: Court-Martialed, Sentenced to 10 Months' Detention
London — A British Army soldier deployed to Estonia has been court-martialed after disobeying an order to remove the SIM card from his phone, which led to his phone being hacked and intimate photos being used to blackmail him, Ars Technica reported on November 7, citing Estonian media.
Corporal Daniel Barton-Kennedy, a soldier of seven years' service, was deployed about 90 miles west of the Russian border. Before deployment, troops were repeatedly told to lock down their personal devices and remove SIM cards for operational security; he did not comply. His phone was subsequently hacked, nude photos of him were stolen, and he was subjected to sextortion.
Barton-Kennedy pleaded guilty to disobeying a lawful command. He was reduced in rank and ordered to serve 10 months in service detention. The case highlights the operational-security risks of personal devices in forward deployments, where a compromised phone can expose both the individual and unit information. (Source: Ars Technica)
