Citizen Lab vs. NSO Group, Apple AI and Privacy

Shared Security Podcast

In episode 334, hosts Tom Eston, Scott Wright, and Kevin Johnson discuss two major topics. First, they explore the ongoing legal battle between Citizen Lab and the Israeli spyware company NSO Group. The courts have consistently blocked NSO’s attempts to access Citizen Lab’s documents to protect victim privacy. Second, they discuss Apple’s new AI features announced at their developer conference, prioritizing user privacy through opt-in by default, and its implications. Kevin shares strong opinions on NSO Group, while the hosts also review Citizen Lab’s investigative work and Apple’s approach to AI and privacy.
