It would never have happened without good Western journalism. Basically NSO was allowed to operate unless they screw up. Which they did with all the scandals, making Israeli look like crooks.
- Fnoord 5y agoI'd put the attribution mainly on Citizen Lab [1], and they're not what I'd call Western journalism. Without them, there would've been nothing to report on. Ie. they did the technical research, and the funding behind such technical researchers. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizen_Lab https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizen_Lab
