Usually with Pegasus. And yes it works. Don’t ask about it.
Wonder if Google, Apple, or SoC makera are asked or secretly mandated to leave certain backdoors in. I know mobile providers have quite a bit they can see on their end.
It’s a good thing we’re always presented with two choices for everything, like mobile OS’s, to control our choices like we’re toddlers.
They don’t really need to, the company making Pegasus is very very skilled, they however get paid for that as well, its absolutely not worth it for a normal person usually.
Mobile operators have baseband which is why we have modem isolation. And some of us can see quite a bit on our end, too.
How do you get Pegasus onto LineageOS or GrapheneOS? Especially on hardware with modem isolation?
Linux and similar Systems are harder to hack but not impossible, i cant tell more, cause i don’t know more.
From the Guardian article somebody else linked:
This isn’t even wrong. What is the attack vector? They send a magic message that 0wns Signal, and then cleans up? At scale? With nobody noticing? This doesn’t happen.
A few comments, they don’t need to have a Signal vulnerability, just an OS vulnerability since that would allow access to decrypted Signal messages. In the past, there have been zero click SMS and iMessage vulnerabilities. There have also been web vulnerabilities.
The attacks are not sent at scale to avoid detection. They are used on specific dissidents and journalists.
TIme to find out what the vulnerabilieties are and EXPOSE them in a OPEN repository.
