The Pegasus Project. Spyware WITH NO CLICK or INTERACTION REQUIREMENT!

The Pegasus Project refers to an international investigative effort led by a consortium of journalists from media outlets worldwide, coordinated by Forbidden Stories with technical support from Amnesty International’s Security Lab. The project, revealed in 2021, exposed the misuse of Pegasus spyware developed by the Israeli company NSO Group. Pegasus was originally marketed as a tool for combating terrorism and serious crime but has been implicated in widespread surveillance of journalists, activists, politicians, and others.
