  • Apple has released an emergency software update to fix a security flaw in its iPhones and other products researchers found was being exploited by the Israeli-based NSO Group to infect the devices with its Pegasus spyware. The security exploit exposes “widespread abuse that we have associated with NSO Group and other companies like it,” says Ronald Deibert, director of the University of Toronto’s Citizen Lab, which discovered the security flaw. “This is … the most important crisis around global civil society right now.” Over 1.65 billion Apple products in use around the globe have been vulnerable to the spyware since at least March.

    I have to question the notion that "Apple did not even know of this flaw." It is entirely possible some silent bugs are left unpatched for "lawful" intercept capabilities. Based on their recent behavior, I just don't give too much benefit...
    News example: One high ranking Apple employee left the company to start an iPhone cracking company... Question is: did he just happen to discover new vulnerabilities after leaving? plant them while inside? or hold on to discoveries? I don't know the answer to this. Something to think about.
    This industry isn't clean. The problem is *No Accountability*. People need to demand accountability.
