Surveillance
Pegasus & Turning India Into Surveillance State https://youtu.be/NUUSYXhwoGM?t=104
Dr Parakala Prabhakar speaks about what these revelations mean for our democracy, our union government’s response to them, and flags the danger that we possibly are witnessing the process of India inexorably descending into being a surveillance state.
Control of Data was the issues in the first round of fight between the tech companies and government..
The uncommonly cautious wording to the preface to the Media Consortiums' admittedly limited claims is sought to be used to undermine the consortiums extraordinarily significant revelations, by it. The consortium desisted from making seeping claims. It aid the leaked list of 50000 numbers, are believed to have been selected as those pf people of interest, by government clients of NGO group. The Consortium also said that the list indicates the potential targets who are idenitified in advance by the NSOs clients for possible surveillance. The list is only an indication of intent.
But.. the consortium has said "The forensic examination of a small sample of mobile phones, with numbers on the list found tight correlations between the time and the date of a number in the data and the start of Pegasus activity. In some cases in some cases a a few seconds. "
The fact that out of the 300 Indian numbers in the list , already 20 of them were forensically examined, and found to be either successfully infected or attempted to be penetrated. That is enough of a case for a comprehensive investigation in India.

The NSO’s “customers” and Pegasus spyware licensing
The OSY Technologies s.a.r.l, NSO Group’s subsidiary, had a legal audit done by a law firm in the wake of the 2019 controversy around the spyware being used through the WhatsApp messenger. The report stated that the “Human Rights Policy and attendant governance documents” of the OSY Technologies s.a.r.l and its subsidiaries are in sync with the “United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights”.
This report stated:
“We license our products only to vetted and legitimate government agencies for the sole and exclusive use in preventing and investigating serious crime, including terrorism. We never use or participate in the use of our products and we have no access to personal data used in or generated from their use… We do not operate our products ourselves or on behalf of our customers; our role is limited to the provision of technical support and maintenance services to our customers. (sic)”
This means, to hack a phone and continue with snooping, the government agency must operate the Pegasus spyware itself and deploy it. In that case, it will have to first get a license to use the application, which is granted by NSO only after the Ministry of Defense approves such a deal. .. the “MoU on Cyber Security Cooperation between India and Israel” states that it “also envisages collaborating in the field of cyber security resilience…”, ...a category in which NSO group’s Pegasus spyware fits well.
