On the most recent episode of Unfiltered With Dan Bongino this past Saturday on Fox News, Dan was joined once again by FBI whistleblower Kyle Seraphin, who this time explained how the Bureau's âPegasusâ software could be abused to spy on Americans.
Dan Bongino: This scares me Kyle, itâs no-click spyware. All I have to do is send you an email on your phone and you donât even need to click on it, and the FBI has everything. Whatâs stopping them from abusing this at this point?
Kyle Seraphin: âŚ.Itâs an Israeli software.. Itâs really only geared for non-U.S. phone numbers, so thatâs what keeps them from using Pegasus specially internally. Or at least thatâs what weâre led to believe by the New York Times. But they created a second, follow-up program called Phantom, and the only customers that are allowed are U.S. government agencies. And so Phantom is designed only to exploit U.S. phone numbers, and if they keep it internally, thatâs a tool that could be used domestically without a problem.
