  • Israeli cyber-surveillance company NSO Group’s Pegasus malware has reportedly been used in at least 45 countries worldwide to infect the phones of activists, journalists, and human rights defenders. This terrifying software can infiltrate your smartphone, collect your data and even listen to you... all without your knowledge.
    A huge leak in July 2021, revealed 50,000 phone numbers that had been targeted; including president of France Emmanual Macron, and friends of the family of Saudi journalist Jamal Kashoggi in the lead up to his murder in 2018.
    Eyal Weizman and Shourideh Molavi from Forensic Architecture used open-source investigation to gather reports of digital Pegasus infections to reveal how they relate to acts of violence in the real world.

      Vice media only voices in Middle East only. It doesn’t not report the war In northern Ethiopia The Famine, or how 4.2 million are on mass starvation by the Ethiopian Government as weapon of war. People are dying every day. I guess VICE just like the other media, bureaucratic.

There are political prisoners right now in jail, social media propaganda is spreading venom against the minority communities and the situation is not too dissimilar to the nazi Germany in early 1930s.

    Blacklist it, destroy it, and ban it from existence on the entire planet. It is a violation of privacy and could be considered wiretapping which is a crime, which needs to be changed to a Federal Crime. Any person who does such whether a citizen, or government official, or federal agents, or law enforcement should be considered guilty. Absolutely unacceptable. Change it now.

The top court is dragging on the case, no concrete calls for investigation ordered till now. There are political prisoners right now in jail, social media propaganda is spreading venom against the minority communities and the situation is not too dissimilar to the nazi Germany in early 1930s. Supporters of the govt are supporting this spying saying that it is all justified in the name of national security. It has been a slide down the road for the world's oldest democracy.

    I’m 24, but I remember when phones were connected through a landline, TVs were large boxes of static, and kids never had cell phones (maybe the occasional game boy.) When social media didn’t exist, hell, when CZcams didn’t. People my age, and I, are the last generation to remember that. Everyone else younger.... god. It’s terrifying.
    People actually interacted. Went outside, played in the sun... talked to their neighbors. They didn’t care as much as they do now about physical appearance.

    Numerous instances of premeditated murder, kidnapping and torture have been linked to the use of this despicable system.
    For the manufacturer to repeatedly claim ignorance and to deny such atrocities have occurred does not alter the horrific truth!

      Any government less likely to use Pegasus for mass surveillance on common civilians. If I'm not wrong, Pegasus key is sold to government on the basis of number of devices they want to track, and the price is too expensive; kind like a subscription model of antivirus companies (1 User, 1 Device). It can't be used on mass scale.

    The solution is open source mobile OS.
    The main problem is that modern iOS and Android devices does not give you full control over your phone. You cant disable services you don't want running in the background, restrict internet access to certain processes etc...
    Same goes with PC. Windows and Mac OS does not give you full control over your hardware. But unlike mobile industry you still have an alternative, Linux.

The top court is dragging on the case, no concrete calls for investigation ordered till now. There are political prisoners right now in jail, social media propaganda is spreading venom against the minority communities and the situation is not too dissimilar to the nazi Germany in early 1930s. Supporters of the govt are supporting this spying saying that it is all justified in the name of national security. It has been a slide down the road for the world's oldest democracy.
