Uh Oh! Spyware Struck the Spyware Detective!

Imagine a detective trying to catch a thief, but then *they* get pickpocketed! That's kind of what happened here!

Alright, super sleuths, gather 'round! There’s a super sneaky computer program called Pegasus. Think of it like a digital ninja that can sneak onto your phone without you even knowing!

Normally, this program is *supposed* to be used by governments to catch really bad guys, like terrorists. But sometimes, like a toy you're not supposed to play with, it gets used in ways that aren't so good or fair.

So, there was this important person, kind of like a tech detective, who was on a special team in Europe. Their job was to investigate these super sneaky programs, including Pegasus, to make sure they were being used correctly. Guess what? Someone偷偷地 (that's 'snoozily' in Japanese!) used Pegasus to hack into *their* phone!
