NSO Group makes spyware called Pegasus. The company purchases so-called zero-day vulnerabilities (ones that are unknown to Apple) from hackers, and its software is capable of mounting zero-click exploits where no user interaction is required by the target.A newly-released app lets you regularly scan your iPhone for Pegasus spyware which can access almost all the data on a phone for a one-off cost of just one dollar. Pegasus attacks are most commonly made against people like political activists, journalists, lawyers, politicians, and CEOs. Why are governments in third world countries buying all these Pegasus software ?
