Piers Morgan testified via video link before a British tribunal regarding his knowledge of phone hacking during his tenure as a tabloid editor. The "hacking" often involved simply using default factory passcodes to access celebrity voicemails. Critics argue the intense media focus on Morgan and celebrities like Hugh Grant serves as a distraction from the much larger issue of state-sponsored mass surveillance and data collection by governments.
