How NSO Group's Pegasus spyware was found on Jamal Khashoggi's fiancée's phone. | FRONTLINE

- A consortium of news outlets from around the world, including FRONTLINE, has been investigating the use of the spyware called Pegasus and the Israeli company, NSO Group, that sells it to foreign governments. Pegasus has been used by NSO clients to spy on journalists, human rights activists and others. One target: Jamal Khashoggi’s fiancée.

The investigation is coordinated by the journalism nonprofit Forbidden Stories, with technical support from Amnesty International’s Security Lab.
Washington Post reporter Dana Priest is one of more than 80 journalists from 17 media organizations working on the collaboration, known as “The Pegasus Project.” She traveled to Turkey to verify if Pegasus had been used to surveil Khashoggi’s fiancée, Hatice Cengiz. NSO Group says its spyware is used to fight terrorism and serious crimes, and that its technology was not associated in any way with Khashoggi’s murder.
This reporting is part of an upcoming FRONTLINE documentary produced with Forbidden Stories to air on PBS.

It's so adorable that Apple users think their devices are hack proof.
Yes. Agreed. They are harder to get into and have more encryption and have for tears though.

Edward Snowden warned about this...
And many other people.
Operation Mockingbird is another one now, also.
Global spying is being done to everyone, always. Backdoors in every device depending on who makes it from what nation.. its sad and corruption is run by corporations now at the top of political donations.
👍🏻👍🏻💯
Correct.
Snowden specifically said the NSA made Stuxnet look like it came from Israel. Just so we're all on the same page about what exactly Snowden "warned" about.
Do I think the NSA was behind this? No. Do I think the Saudi military, which is literally trained on US military bases because they make the Military Industrial Complex go round with all their money, learned a thing or two about how to misdirect the origins of 8 year old spyware? Yes.
Pegasus was first discovered in 2013 by Citizen Lab, and was first sold by American Cyber Security firm, The Hacking Team. It's outdated, well researched and known, heavy-handed, doesn't hide in kernal, doesn't self-destruct, and leaves traces. It's an exploit of long-standing zero days in iOS, which Apple intentionally places because they enthusiastically cooperate with law enforcement & governments - including helping the CCP spy on Hong Kongers that overwhelmingly use iPhones.

Best journalism on tv. How many times you hear non profit journalism. Frontline and PBS are amazing. Thank you
Add Propublica to that list.
This revelation was made by The Wire and a French newspaper the name i can't remember. Not by frontline or pbs. In fact they're only covering it after it became huge worldwide.
PBS have become biased hacks in recent years. There are very few true journalists left in the world.
Phone manufacturing company should add a manual key to disconnect microphone,camera & gps.
Or just go back to removable battery.
They have the power off button on the smart phone which makes the phone a piece of metal or plastic…
Buy Librem phone or Pine phone for such features.
Apple did a good step in this direction to have notification every time microphone or camera get on!! Of course not enough but it’s good..
Until u r not a person of interest, no need to worry about this. As Snowden said, it’s you against million dollars companies, u cannot win!!

To show you how good PBS is you need look no farther than here in Texas to where PBS stations have disappeared almost completely over the last 20 years. Thank you PBS for allowing me to watch you online.
@Unknown User since when is fair, unbiased reporting “spreading a liberal agenda”
I avoid ANY news outlet that uses inflammatory language (left or right leaning) and I do not see PBS do that. The litmus test to to read/listen/watch and pay attention to your emotions. If you get super angry, etc then most likely the stories are given in a way to make you feel angry. Or if I’m watching a news broadcast that demeans someone (whether I like them or not) I turn it off.
So, really, if YOU think PBS is liberal, more likely you just don’t want to hear the truth and would rather listen to someone claim Obama is a Muslim and Joe Biden has dementia but also runs the world’s largest crime syndicate that is so powerful even Putin is afraid.
@Unknown User being aware of your emotions is not the same as being triggered by them. It takes a certain maturity level to understand and maybe one day, you’ll get there. 👍🙏😎
@Unknown User nice russian spybot
@Unknown User lmao
Frontline is not PBS, Frontline is a different team compared to the PBS Newshour (biased politics) team that is on the channel daily. The reason it is not in Texas anymore, is because they are biased daily on the newshour portion of PBS. This is a solid fact, well documented by dozens and dozens of youtubers who report weekly on adult topics and truth that the hollywood NYC media groups cover up for their corporate advertising partners, including this one who gets donations from nonprofits from billionaires, for a reason... its a veil for their politics.
Trump 100% has Pegasus installed on his phone without even knowing..
Biden doesn’t even know how to use his phone. 100 percent

Well said. 'Pegasus' is just the tip of the spear. This is a product that has likely already been duplicated to various levels of effectiveness and since it is a product, the cost of obtaining an effective copycat will be a $$$ race to the bottom. The potential client list is endless. Just use your imagination.

It's time for this company to start answering questions. They are selling their warez to criminals and should be held accountable. If they fail to respond then their corporate office should be left as a smoldering hole in the ground.
Never gonna happen...look at the religion of NSO...they do whatever they want under the disguise of antisemitism
Nothing is going to happen. They are Israelis after all. For them is carte blanche to do whatever they want without questions. All hell would have been let lose if it were Chinese, Russian, or Iranian company.

This will be a good one, thank you frontline always the best journalism in the business. Very in depth coverage.
I honestly feel bad for the people who claim Frontline is lying because they are “liberal” but also believe there is a “Deep State” but then don’t want to believe when Frontline is reporting on ACTUAL government spying on citizens. We know the Saudi’s aren’t the only ones spying on citizens and this should scare the crap out of everyone in the US with a smartphone.

how does a surveillance company even exist overtly.. when already laws

She's Not brave. she just do what she has to do.
Y'all giving all women "brave badges" for all kinds of basic stuff.
A lot of people are not well known like her, don't have journalist contacts ect. and they are far more at risk to die anonymously killed at any moment.
Why still now no action has been taking on nso group
Maybe someone should arrest NSO's CEO and extradite them to the US?
Oh right...
Israel owns US, so no question.
USA probably like: Oh wait its Israel company, its democracy spyware so its a good software. Nothing to see here
What you thing all this going on without Israeli government's approval, this NSO is a name only at the back end Israeli governement is behind all this, playing with the thousands of lives.
This is horrible cyber stalking.
THIS IS INCREDIBLE. Allow this to be a prime example of WHY reporters are so fucking invaluable. Undermining legitimate reporters as “fake news” allows for evil to prevail. How the fuck would we come to discover this if it weren’t for this kind of incredible, relentless reporting? I would never want to live in a world without reporters, without those who expose corruption, evil, etc…
So sad that this news isn’t more famous and doesn’t have more coverage

Question: HOW TO DISABLE AND REMOVE PEGASUS SPYWARE FROM YOUR SMARTPHONE?
toss it in a lake
@N spygate on blockchain AI tyranny for nuclear scum pedophiles
You can't, but you can use it for disinformation
@@DgurlSunshine A conspiracy that includes everybody. Even "nuclear scum pedophiles"
an interesting and unheard of demographic. Q would be impressed.
Basically delete your OS (files included), and install a custom one, and preferably use only open source apps
Edit : to be clear a custom ROM, like removing windows for Linux
I got pulled over while test driving a vehicle earlier this year. I was detained for 3 hours while local law enforcement tossed the vehicle. During this time I was separated from my belongings immediately before being “detained” in the cruiser. This included my iPhone. Ever since that day in march my phone was never the same. With the most recent update for iOS it was brought to my attention that Pegasus is in fact on my phone and there is a page in the app that has a current campaign. I can’t dig much further into the perimeters of the app. BC I don’t have an account. So if I don’t have an account how is there a campaign running on my phone? And is it possible that when I saw these cops take my phone to the back of the Sargent’s vehicle that’s when it was loaded into my iOS? I haven’t deleted the app bc I want to preserve any evidence that may still be there. For instance if I can pinpoint the exact time / date the app appeared. And that time is while I’m documented NOT in possession of the phone then I’m hoping I’ll have a leg to stand on for some answers
Kashogi was a mujadeen fighter and an intelligence asset he wasn't simply a "journalist".
Those who differ your opinion is called a mujahid?...
Basically
What’s the Saudis then ? Devil worshippers ? Like Biden n Clinton
Lucky this can't be used on my home computer like turning on the camera, listening through the microphone, monitoring e-mails, tracing keystrokes, reading all my word documents, accounts, pictures, searches ...... nothing to worry about here. :P
BlackBerry is still the most secure.
Pegasus is for mobiles but for desktops n laptops there are other softwares which can do the same thing.
Indian govt planted evidences in laptops of rights defenders, activists, lawyers etc (recently confirmed by Arsenal digital forensics company) n arrested them on terr0rism charges. 3yrs on no trial and no bail, they continue to be incarcerated.
This goddamn NSO group should b immediately banned n blacklisted.
Imagine if something so powerful gets into the wrong hands . It's just like a silent nuclear bomb .
I had the same thing happen to multiple phones of mine and a friend as well.. it explains lot...
Thank you!
Didn't they know that their super rich enemies would acquire it?
So, this is how Israel got recognition recently by some arab countries by selling pegasus...

Pegasus must be destroyed. There is no other way around it and they will be destroyed one way or another.
Wow, scary it is!
And that scoundrel Chaiwala is using it on his political opponents. What a shame!
Anything that can be plugged up and charged can be hacked.
What a horror.
This pegasus crap is a complete invasion of privacy by this company you know they sell it to anyone who has the money
It is extraordinary naive of Israel to believe that the Pegasus would not get into the wrong hands despite so called vetting. Stupid of them.

Good Job Frontline!!!
Imagine when hackers reproduce by this.....the entire mobile system will collapse
whatever Israel and their company do No one should criticize Israel because if you do you will called anti-Semitic . "Well, it's a trick, we always use it. When from Europe somebody is criticizing Israel, then we bring up the Holocaust. When in this country people are criticizing Israel, then they are anti-Semitic ... And it's very easy to blame people who criticize certain acts of the Israeli government as anti-Semitic, and to bring up the Holocaust, and the suffering of the Jewish people, and that is justify everything we do to the Palestinians."

Is it possible that Apple allowed Pegasus to run within its main OS codebase ? as it would be next to impossible for some apps to just get automatically installed and take photos, read messages, hack & send data without the consent of user - Apple guys need to clarify that their platform is really safe and not just ordinary type of phone OS with lots of cameras around
