Recently, the Israeli government had also visited the NSO Group’s office even as the company continues to deny the revelations brought forth by the Pegasus Project reports.
Israel-based NSO Group whose spyware Pegasus has reportedly been used to (potentially) snoop on hundreds of Indians, has temporarily blocked several government clients around the world from using its technology as it conducts an internal investigation into the spyware’s possible misuse, an NPR.org report said.
Why it matters? Since NSO Group has specifically stated that they only sell their products such as Pegasus to vetted governments and agencies, questions have been raised of the Indian government ever since it came to the fore that several Indians, including many who may have/have been critical of the ruling party, were surveilled. They include Congress politician Rahul Gandhi, election strategist Prashant Kishor, former Election Commission member Ashok Lavasa and others.
