npub1zj46mlm94ekxxlc26xk3yyse9c89jd6hrf9q6ce34w045es6a86sqzfyjh (npub1zj4…fyjh) They extracted "hashes" of phone numbers/email addresses associated to the sender's apple id, and used something like a rainbow table* to crack it.
* Yes, they used a preconfigured list of phone numbers and email addresses to generate the rainbow table, so theoretically if you used a phone number that's not +86 (Mainland China) or a email address that's not generally used in China (like gmail or some disposable mail) to register your apple id you should be safe.
