Shortly after his release, he was approached by Amnesty International, which asked to look at his phone. The spyware they found — commonly known as "Pegasus" — can be traced back to the Israeli cyber surveillance company, NSO Group.
Pegasus exploits were patched in iOS 9 back in 2016. How old was this guy's phone?
