The Intellexa Consortium is associated with the development and distribution of Predator spyware which targets a range of high-profile individuals, including American government officials and journalists. With a resurgence of the Predator spyware, despite US sanctions, there is a renewed threat to privacy and security. High-profile targets are particularly at risk due to the intelligence value they present, with the sophisticated spyware being employed strategically for surveillance and data theft. This activity, reportedly continuing in countries such as DRC and Angola, represents a concerning use of mercenary spyware against political opposition and raises serious ethical and legal issues.
