Come on, think about it. Doesn't work for phone numbers starting with +1? So, anyone who buys the right sim card is immune? A team of professional hackers can't

Come on, think about it. Doesn't work for phone numbers starting with +1? So, anyone who buys the right sim card is immune? A team of professional hackers can't find the if-else in the attack binary that enforces that to disable it? They're selling software to cybersecurity teams on the assumption that they can't crack it?
- RealityVoid 5y agoMy understanding is that it's not _just_ a tool, but a whole infrastructure around it that the clients use. So presumably, before deploying to a target, it would need to go through NSO infrastructure, so they could vet there.

Seems like the kind of thing that would be in a config file (making this up, satire): [No Spying Allowed - please do not change] # Really, really, don't change this setting. We are not responsible if you do. +1 # USA +3542 # NSO Group > They're selling software to cybersecurity teams on the assumption that they can't crack it? No, I think they are telling journalists that their hands are clean, and it totally isn't their fault, not in a million years, that their customer changed their software.
