00:00Why should people around the world care about the hacking that you're documenting here?
00:06These cases affect 450 million people. It's a violation of their rights.
00:11What we ended up finding was actually the tip of the iceberg.
00:16Spyware is this powerful surveillance tool.
00:20Big spyware companies say they sell this tech only to governments.
00:24But this multi-billion dollar industry is mostly unregulated.
00:28The most advanced spyware can turn your smartphone into a spy in your pocket.
00:34It can copy everything and record you without you ever knowing.
00:38And then just disappear without a trace.
00:41This company, NSO Group, makes Pegasus, advanced spyware reportedly deployed in at least 45 countries.
00:49With allegations it's being used to target journalists, human rights activists, and political dissidents.
00:56What's the most objectionable thing that you saw in your time at the company?
01:00One of the moral problems that I had was a journalist murder.
01:04Should people be concerned?
01:06Definitely yes.
01:08Does NSO know that some of its customers are abusing this technology?
01:14This tool could fall into the hands of the Iranians, the North Koreans, the Chinese.
01:18We need our experts to know what is out there.
01:22They targeted my family.
01:24My mom, she worked at the hospitals.
01:26So they had access to hundreds of data about patients all around the world.
01:32Do you think it's headed down a path of more domestic impact?
01:36These technologies, any various use that we can imagine, we're probably going to see.
