‘Snoopy’ drone steals data as you’re on street

Just how secure is the information on your phone? Not very, thanks to the latest information-grabbing technology hovering overhead while you walk down a busy street.

Hackers have developed a drone that can steal the contents of your smartphone — from your location data to your passwords.

The technology, innocently called Snoopy, searches for mobiles with their wifi settings turned on — which is the vast majority.
