From Poindexter to Pegasus: An Evolutionary Tale
The Pegasus Project documents it all
Along with Frontline and Forbidden Stories
50,000 i-phones have been called
Pegasus Spyware developed by the Israeli NSO Group
Turns an I phone in to a surveillance tool
By as much as an unanswered call
It’s a network injector that grabs your data and disappears.
That controls the i-phone camera, speakers and contacts in an
Instantaneous clone with all the data there
For clandestine operators to see.
The company altruistically says its systems are only sold
To governments who are never in error
Using it to thwart acts of terror.
But around the world this has not been the case.
Dissidents and reporters have been the subjects of erase.
In Mexico 15,000 numbers have been culled
And journalist Cecilio Pineda Birto on the list
The Guardian’s Nina Lakhani
Mexico was NSO Group’s number one
And in Mexico it’s not the war on drugs
With the police, the army and cartels all in cahoots.
Considering the US captures every phone call,
Every E-Mail or text message in the world
Snowden told us he could monitor anyone in the world so flagged
And Angela Merkel and Dilma Rouseff’s phones so egregiously
Snagged….
So, no one should be surprised
If private actors used the technology to do
Whatever they can to make a buck…
And use this tool to improve their luck….
