6/ The victims in the 2019 hack had been targeted with a simple missed video call exploit.
No action required, and once-infected, the call log would typically be deleted.
We at Citizen Lab volunteered help investigate the target list and try find journalists, dissidents, and human rights defenders.
We found a lot.
And plenty of unexpected pockets of repression. Like the targeting dissident members of the clergy in Togo.
