Russia appears to be targeting journalists with spyware known as Pegasus.
-
Pegasus is a “zero-click” software, hacking phones by sending texts that don’t need to be opened.
-
The software has targeted dozens of journalists, activists, and politicians in recent years.
Yet, if you check your dmesg you’ll find innumerable methods of mitigation against such exploits.
A software patch for hardware issue.
Personally, I’d rather the drop in performance than the Kashoggi treatment.
