in a 2 part series. the lives of. 20 years. in science and stances cloyd's. changing. 20 years of me. on how to 0. ringback i just already know. that months or as a human rights activist in the united arab emirates. i interviewed him 2 years ago shortly after he'd received strange text messages with suspicious links the text

was talking about some secrets related to the torture and i have them it's they tell us that most of for me to click on the link. in the u.a.e. have bought a powerful spyware called pegasus that can break into almost any smartphone i want to target opens an attached link at the bottom line to the government a year is too long to activists and certain individuals over interest of the. months or is now serving a 10 year prison sentence in the u.a.e. for publicly criticizing this government. not only people in general but that would also cause some people to be killed or. assassinated in. this case was the 1st detective hack of its kind. in the last 4 years pegasus has been used against activists and journalists around the world. in this episode of faultlines we investigate how governments are using pegasus to turn

their critic cell phones into the alternate tools of surveillance. in 2015 pegasus showed up in mexico. among the 2 dozen targets was mexico's most famous investigative journalist carmen are sticking. with the yes she and her team had just revealed a major. corruption scandal involving the president at the time in reeky opinion yet though. the story shocked the nation and soon our stock you felt the backlash. in northern india given any of the this i thought oh my that is a question in me ponder he means that of us young escaped again then yet to me even in this money to us. 2 months after the revelations our study and her teenage son

started getting strange text messages with enticing links. but on this same as them inside his inside case going up with he has an. exact escape i love the un the foreign media aisle who got of on the levy's does a job but if. i leave you get good people there goes i that is so there is a right to work lot of the film in the xian is going to. get us out of my ass but i said what i meant that he was adios. you know they look at the enemy the left on. this let's find theirs and he's gone by needles pretty says that one about us cyber security researchers in canada determine that our sticky and her son emilio had been targeted with pegasus at the time emilio was a 16 year old high school student studying in the us was supposed look at this at the in the in the in their they know her but that is sick on one another listen

they not in the upper case that he will grow. no escaping stevie. those right you and i that i made up my your when those t.v. set is they list al or nader i me and him to receive are one and i mean them would call that osa but us of it at the overlook yes in being able to get up i want to listen to. you study the me whole get ill is doesn't get in besides i will milo out of anatomy. to find out more about the use of pegasus in mexico we came to our 3 d. a digital rights group that has helped shed light on the cyber attacks here how many pegasus infections have you found in mexico. we know that at least 30 people have been targeted in that and those where human rights defenders journalists politicians even international investigators what we know from the contract that has been made public is that mexico acquired the ability to effect $500.00 targets

so we know that there probably were. many many many more targets. because this is the creation of an israeli spy ware company called in a so group. the mexican attorney general's office recently disclosed his contracts within a soaker from 2016 in 2017. to show the office had paid at least $32000000.00 for pegasus have you seen anything like this when it comes to surveillance on this scale. we have seen other types of malware we have seen some cases here and there we haven't seen the scale of the use we don't model we're too less powerful as these 1. 1 of the things that makes pegasus so powerful is that it can access information on a phone before it can be encrypted. encrypted protects the user's privacy by securing the data on a device. lots of authorities for legitimate and illegitimate purposes want to be

able to crack by looking at the devices before that information is encrypted in the 1st place. i guess is takes total control of phone he can get access to pictures chats the contact lens the can open the mike open the camera with all you know to sing it records everything you type. in a soaker says it only contracts with governments and law enforcement agencies to buy criminals and terrorists. and that their technology has helped thwart terror attacks and save thousands of lives but they won't say how some of the people that seem targeted clearly they're not suspects what why would they target them the government was trying to silence them he was trying to make them not resist. acts and buy from our rights violations corruption lies and when a target is particularly difficult to target they call to your immediate circle so

in no ways an attack on all sides. in a so group says that it can remotely cut off a client's access to pegasus if their abuse it but more had to report it in mexico after the pegasus scandal blew up in. 2017 in the state of sinaloa home to one of mexico's most powerful drug cartels javier valdez was gunned down just blocks from his office. he was a reporter payments for his unflinching coverage of narco violence here. i'm not fake tan. i am meant to. kind of sign us and i know that our but our set. brazil the tree owner is the widow of valdez she's a journalist and activist and son a lower. risk companion as man. hostile. easier when they hear more of them and bail christan last seen to somebody else he

and quite appalled a home here. just days after the shooting triana got strange text messages that included links. fair on me that a few natalie here where this where. is the minister who met here for one of these years this was a game that i read and the link here is a bit early b. i t. l. y. so that's hiding with the actual play descent 2 and this is so specific to you. john one candle for. release here on. this side up ahead ray and

a commission as you know they simply that. the feet. join us but immediate access some. gas. here at the supply at the scales get hammered if you can and don says miss andy we are neither. to evolve as his colleagues at the cinema were based newspaper rio dos say also received pegasus impacted links within days of the murder. audrey's heriot was one of them. why do you think you were targeted. a illegal we have opinion which up but he supports or there is a sort of how your board let those who are maybe at the good board gasol. inform us your little star their handle on the door the at among the soldiers who for media sources must have guns quite a lot of meals i must put a stop that import them is to have a good start in the maybe at the moment those boys that i see not but. why would

they need to secretly illegally surveil your phone is the implication that they think you didn't tell the truth or you're holding something back and this is a still a course in the just cause us gave up on them and this one inexpert governess no conformant back the name best yes you are correct that he was not yet up and seemed politicizing there all that most wanted but it would stop in the us i said. help us out on which will be as this was a lesson that both of you had to fight on before only many apps do you worry about more the authorities or the narcos. know are you there and that it. is more you davey in there must. also make it we have to say they are. 2 men were arrested a year after the murder but the mastermind was never apprehended. 99 percent of crimes against journalists go unpunished in mexico. it's unknown if paul does

a similar message just before his death his killers took his phone and laptop. do you think your photos tapped now. just 2nd me and how about i thought my stating that better does man never ask can i see. sense as they. send their the mail said either. in 2017 under pressure from the public the mexican attorney general's office launched a criminal investigation into the hacking of journalists and activists. this is the same agency that bought pegasus so far no one has been held accountable. earlier this year the mexican government claimed that it no longer uses pegasus. the 1st people to discover what pegasus is and does were researchers at citizen lab a digital rights group at the university of toronto. they investigate abuses of

pegasus worldwide one of the biggest selling points of this stuff is that it's wickedly hard to find there's a cat and mouse game. they hide we seek they were able to associate the links that were sent to months or are sticky and are signed triana in many others within a so groups servers. the 1st time that we learn about pegasus about this or get in touch and says listen i think i'm being targeted again. what was special about it was different well this one caught our attention in part because it was about his mobile phone hacking and i phone is a much larger technical lift and we realized that we were looking at a chain of i phone 0 days.
