Two Indian reporters from the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project have had their phones targeted with the Pegasus spyware. The attacks took place hours after the two reporters reached out for comment to the Adani Group, one of India's largest companies. The reporters were investigating the Adani Group's owners for possible market manipulation by secretly buying their own stocks. https://www.occrp.org/en/40-press-releases/presss-releases/18198-indian-journalists-targeted-with-state-intimidation-and-spyware

    Darknet Diaries has a few interesting podcasts about Pegasus. If anyone is interested I’d suggest giving them a listen.

        Yep I just listened to them a few days ago. I guess Jack is either burned out or is running out of things to talk about. My friend introduced me to the podcast about 2 years ago. Back then Jack was putting out new ones like every day or every other day, then it was a few a week, then it was once a week, then like once every two weeks. I hadn’t listened to it in months and was surprised/disappointed to see that there were only like 3 new episodes. He apparently only does like one a month now.

          I’d imagine they’re a lot of work to research and verify. I’ll take what I can get.

            1000% this. I used to run a weekly radio show and could only get through about 12 episodes before I started running out of steam. It takes a lot to produce an hour of polished audio editing plus interviews plus research plus writing – it all adds up. I think at around 100 episodes that would be like 20-30 novels worth of content depending on how you slice it.

            Yeah, he does a lot of high quality interviews and stories which require a bunch of research, so that takes away from writing other scripts.
