They probably weren’t putting shaped charges into the pagers at the factory

Yeah, you’re right. I read that article too quickly. Thought it said they just did something with malware to trigger the battery to explode.

Even if they did do that, afaik batteries can’t fail like that, especially little ones in pagers. If anything they’d just burst into flames and people would get a few burns
