" summary

Evidence shows governments deploy the Israeli spyware Pegasus against politicians, judges, election officials and journalists — names include Rahul Gandhi, election commissioners and a sitting Supreme Court judge — and the state never denies use, eroding a level playing field. Mass data from Big Tech combines with Aadhaar-voter linkage and lax IT rules to let authorities microtarget voters. Courts and activists tied to the Bhima Koregaon arrests show 32 planted files on one laptop and dozens jailed, signaling Pegasus snoop list consequences for civil society.
