Spyware Pegasus made by Israel’s NSO was allegedly used to hack journalists’ phones
New Delhi:
Israel’s NSO, the developer of military grade spyware Pegasus which has allegedly been used by multiple nations for snooping on politicians, judiciary, officials, activists and journalists, today said it will no longer respond to media inquiries.
The company — which has repeatedly denied that the list leaked to Amnesty International and Paris-based news non-profit Forbidden Stories is not a list of targets or potential targets of Pegasus — today said it will no longer “play along with the vicious and slanderous campaign”.
“NSO will thoroughly investigate any credible proof of misuse of its technologies, as we always had, and will shut down the system where necessary,” a spokesperson said.
