I thought external agencies were using Pegasus
Pegasys News Report:
But in the background, Pegasus was calling back to servers controlled by its creators, then downloading its malicious software, jailbreaking the device, and quickly infecting every aspect of the phone from messaging software to its repository of WiFi passwords with three "zero day" vulnerabilities, or unfixed bugs that can be exploited by hackers.

Sounds like they need to call these guys to help with monitoring of potential terrorists, we are violating everyone's rights, not sure if this will change from what we are already doing:

  • GCHQ/Great Britian - Tempora
  • NSA - Prism
  • Russia - SORM
