The scary part is they very much may just do that. NSO Group is based outta Israel, it's honestly terrifying. The man has much larger balls than some may realize.
Just do what? It sounds like you're saying they'd hurt the journalist but the only context available makes it seem like you could be talking about the onion headline.
Edit: Did a little reading, fuck they're scary.
IDK about this group in particular but at the moment Israel holds the record for most journalists murdered in wartime.
There's 2 reasons for that:
They're attacking one of the most densely populated areas in the world
They're committing a genocide - when they want to wipe out the entire population, journalists are going to get killed in their indiscriminate attacks.
They're far-right too, so they're a half-step from flat out executing dissenting journalists (and how are journalists in Palestine likely to be aligned?).
Isreal has a database of all the people living in Gaza as well as their places of residency. Most (if not all) of the prominent Palestinian journalists have been killed in their homes, along with their families, in strikes using smart munitions during the first few days of the "war". It's giving Isreal too much credit to say they weren't specifically targeted.
Yikes - that's news to me. I can't say I'm shocked - especially knowing the way they were barring journalists from entry, and they obviously want to control the narrative about their genocide.
They've also deliberately shot at and detained journalists in clearly marked press gear. It's not "oh they got caught in the crossfire".
NSO is apparently quite formidable in terms of hacking as well, to the point where apple actively sued them: https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2021/11/apple-sues-nso-group-to-curb-the-abuse-of-state-sponsored-spyware/
What're they gonna do? Fail to gather basic intelligence on him before he invades their country? Oooh he's so scared
Their mercenary software is no joke. They will own your phone without you noticing, and once they own your phone, they own you. This is like silencing journalists if you're a nation state 101
No, silencing journalists as a nation-state 101 is having him tragically fall backwards onto twelve loaded assault rifles, wrap himself in a body bag and throw himself into the river, ruled a suicide by the judge, open and shut case.
Yes exactly, but that starts with info collection, cellular there goal, and OSINT
and so is zipoapps
