The Spanish PM and the defence minister were infected by Pegasus (in Spanish)
Most the of the conversation around Pegasus has rightly focused around how shocking and casual the widespread sale and use of this malware is.<p>But, I wonder if there's another story here: nearly all world leaders have a target-able device with cameras, microphones, GPS, and personal and professional conversations (and therefore contact lists) which they carry with them 24/7. At what point does the risk outweigh the convenience? I'm not sure what the solution is, but I wish that smartphones were not seen as a default necessity for everybody. Risks such as Pegasus are introduced, and it seems hard to go back to how things were.
