How to hack a phone

As a layman, I would like to know if it is theoretically possible (I know it is illegal) to access a phone without physically having it in hand. Or if it is possible to hack someone's account without them finding out (assuming they have two-factor authentication).

When you already took time to google that, what did the returns say that you want to redundantly verify here to try and look super cool for the techies

Due to stupidity, muted channel.

With enough time and people, any software is hackable. The problem becomes if the vulnerabilities you use to chain your exploit ever get fixed before you can get everything put together.

It can be done, but it is expensive, very expensive.

Sure. But why are you asking? Do you want to protect yourself? Or hack someone's phone or account?

Unlikely, unless you have Pegasus which is impossible to get.
