To me the issue is not security agencies use Pegasus, but foreign security agents physically assault British citizen in London, MI6 does bugger all.
I’m not sure what I want from our security services, but security sounds good.
Also I wonder if there is a background level of foreign agent activity they accept and how is that related to the police’s paradox of using confidential informants

This just can't be true. iOS is a very secure operating system or am I missing something ?
