Dozens of journalists and activists in El Salvador have had their phones hacked with the spyware Pegasus, which has been used by governments to monitor critics and dissidents. Pegasus, which was designed by the Israeli company NSO Group, infects iPhones and Android devices, allowing operators to extract messages, photos and emails, record calls and secretly activate microphones and cameras. Researchers said most of those targeted work at the El Faro news outlet, which has reported on alleged secret talks between the government and gangs. They could not prove who was behind the hack, but said evidence pointed to government involvement. Why is Pegasus still in the market ?
