Episode Details

Without even requiring user interaction on a phone, Pegasus:

- Infects a target device, sometimes without any clicks (zero-click exploits via apps like iMessage or WhatsApp).

= Accesses sensitive data, including messages, emails, photos, contacts, and calendar entries.

- Activates microphones and cameras, enabling real-time surveillance.

- Tracks location, silently and continuously.

- Self-destructs if it detects it's being analysed.

The team discusses the history and use of this hacking tool, as well as a commentary on the recent court sentencing of a South African cyber extortionist to eight years behind bars.

And finally - are you ready for your AI companion?
