Russia appears to be targeting journalists with spyware known as Pegasus.

This is just false.
Pegasus is not a "zero click software" which does not really mean anything. It's a spyware
If you don't have physical access to an unlocked device you need to exploit a vulnerability to install it. And what a lucky day, Apple has again failed to solve their zero click vulnerability around ImageIO and the sandbox of iMessages. This type of vulnerability has been recurrent for Apple products
I don’t really get what you’re trying to say but I do wonder if maybe an internal apple employee is somehow working with the company that makes Pegasus and that’s why they continue to have exploits.
No Pegasus and the device exploits have really nothing to do with each others.
And it's not a company that makes Pegasus(it is, see below)https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/NSO_Group
NSO is a company?
My bad I thought it was the Israeli government itself or affiliated group, did not know about NSO
