Amnesty International uncovers new hacking campaign linked to mercenary spyware company

Amnesty International has exposed a sophisticated hacking campaign by a mercenary spyware firm targeting Google’s Android. The findings revealed widespread spyware attacks developed by a cyber-surveillance company and sold to government hackers. The threat has been neutralized through security updates from Google and other companies like Samsung. However, Amnesty’s Head of Security Lab calls for a global ban on spyware until stricter regulation is in place.
