The report, which claims that “American ‘black boxes’ failed at zero hour of the attack on Isfahan,” concerns devices that Iran claims either rebooted or dropped offline despite the country having already been disconnected from the global Internet, a fact it says "indicates deep sabotage."

I have no evidence, but you know who likes to sell tampered devices? Israel. Remember when they sold pagers with explosives inside and killed and wounded a lot of ppl in Lebanon, including killing 2 children? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_Lebanon_electronic_device_attacks

I would suggest taking a close look at the companies which resold this stuff, because other buyers may be in for a surprise as well.
