With that many exploits being used I wouldn't be surprised to see it is a group probably government sponsored. They love iMessage exploits as original attack vectors too.

Russian authorities say it was the Americans trying to spy on other NATO nations, Israel, and Ukraine. America spying on Russia's enemies.

Well, I may be under the wrong impression but it occurred to me that the US govt likes to spy on everyone, friends and foes and the US citizens, too

Edit: punctuation

Documentary about the pheonix software explains a lot about who used this kind of virus, mainly political figures and govermants to spy on other politicans and jornalists. The imessage exploit was known for a few years but nobody knew how the file installed itself on the device, so there was no way to figure out how to protect the device.

Which documentary?
