"You sell this to authoritarian governments and expect them to only use it on criminals, oh please" love that line.

[Hatsuzuki]

If someone is giving evasive non-denial-denials, you know you're being lied to.
The NSO group's talking heads didn't give a single straight answer in the entire interview.

[janejones]

He sells a system to human rights abusers, and is surprised with how they use it? Please. Money talks....

[TheJapanChannelDcom]

Those two Pegasus owners are full of it. $55 million per sale and they pretend they have ethics. 😀

[miguelalaniz]

The inventor of Pegasus is a criminal himself due to the fact that he sold his system to numerous countries without any restrictions so this interview by 60 minutes is absolutely hilarious.

Give away your privacy for security and you'll lose both

[Therecouldbehope]

This is 5 yrs old. Imagine what they can do now ?

[jsa]

That means not only can the hack your phone, they can also embed information onto it in order to frame you.

[realniqqa]

They don’t care what the technology is used for, all they want is the money being made by selling the product.

[Thedesertguy]

Criminals only? Strongly doubt that, this is about absolute control and access to everyone. Period.

[Anonymous-pmjf]

We now know the two members of NSO were lying through their teeth

[butchcassidy]

Great job by the reporter! She cornered the NSO lady into admitting THEY DO KNOW the system is being misused".
She just said imagine being in a room and having to weigh between countries fighting terrorism or them maybe misusing the system". Great job! 10:24

[direktive]

what proof is there that it has been used to stop 'bad guys' to save lives at all if they supposedly know nothing about who the targets are until an allegation of misuse is made?

[DinDjarin]

It's messed up when you turn regular people into terrorists by spying on them and harassing them.

[mattmayo]

The irony of all of this is having 60+ year old men be the “experts” in the governments cabinet of officials. Most of them couldn’t even change the Home Screen on their phones. Good grief.

[inmyopinion]

The developer never mentions privacy rights. Software like this is not a friend to freedom or any other rights.

[edwardroche]

This man loves money and he is greedy and doesn't care about anyone's life or privacy.. he is absolutely complicit in Jamal's death and many. His company should be dissolved and he should be put in prison

[janejones]

If you're not a criminal, you have nothing to fear. has that been said before 🤔.

[flipnotrab]

The irony of “don’t put anything in a computer you wouldn’t put on a postcard” is staggering. (Gen Z now googling what a postcard is😂)
