MEMORY LANE | Dozens of #Journalists’ #iPhones #Hacked with #NSO ‘#ZERO_CLICK’ #spyware, says #Citizen_Lab

The spyware was #silently_delivered, likely over #iMessage.

NSO #sells governments and nation states #access to its #Pegasus_spyware as a #prepackaged service by providing the #infrastructure and the #exploits needed to launch the spyware against the customer’s #targets.

But the spyware maker has repeatedly #distanced itself from what its customers do and has said it does not know who its customers target. Some of NSO’s known customers include #authoritarian_regimes.

#Saudi_Arabia allegedly used the #surveillance technology to spy on the #communications of columnist #Jamal_Khashoggi shortly before his murder, which U.S. intelligence concluded was likely ordered by the kingdom’s de facto ruler, Crown Prince #Mohammed_bin_Salman.

Citizen Lab said it also found #evidence that #Dridi, a journalist at Arabic television station #Al_Araby in #London, had fallen #victim to a zero-click #attack. The researchers said Dridi was likely targeted by the #UAE_government.

In a phone call, Dridi told TechCrunch that her phone may have been targeted because of her close association to a person of interest to the UAE.

Dridi’s phone, an iPhone XS Max, was targeted for a longer period, likely between October 2019 and July 2020. The researchers found evidence that she was targeted on two separate occasions with a zero-day attack.

My least favorite thing about #ios17 is the new #iMessage app selector. You can’t remove apps from the drawer now and it takes more time to get to apps now. #apple #iphone #ios

@hiramfromthechi Exactly. I get it they are trying to suck dry the potential market share by the whole 🟢 🆚 🔵 chat bubble 💬.

Time to move on and getting back to fully improving user experience. #Apple #iOS #iMessage

Dear @Meta and @MarkZuckerberg, it is 100% ridiculous that we are still waiting for a reliable #Whatsapp app for ipad! Are you hoping people should explore if #Google or other products have what many sight challenged folks need? Native ipad ....and sync-delete-chat across devices already. WAITING!

The only improvement announced by #Apple at #WWDC seems to be the better search in #iMessage. That is actually helpful to me. Don’t care about anything else I have read about yet, and definitely don’t want some snowboarding looking glasses to wear outside

Unsichtbare iMessage Nachrichten können Spyware enthalten.

Apple ist keinen Dot sicherer als andere Systeme - alles Marketing-Gewäsch!

Gut das man derartiges von #Threema noch nie gehört hat.

HIer ein Auszu aus dem Artikel:

Ever felt the need to annoyingly point out #Hate? Well I designed a #iMessage Sticker pack for that last year! #HappyPride #Pride #iOS #Apple

#iMessage is secure because it uses end-to-end encryption. This means that no one, including Apple or your carrier, can see your conversation.
However, Apple stores copies of the end-to-end encryption keys in general iCloud backups. Unless you disable that backup, Apple can read your messages.

Educate yourselves before you shit on others. Facts are facts. I don't care if you sleep with your iPhone. If Apple cared about your security, they would be offering RCS alongside their proprietary stuff.
