Facebook-owned messaging platform Whatsapp has informed the Indian government that the Pegasus "snoopware" that was developed by the Israel-based cyber tech firm NSO targeted 121 accounts of Indian users. Out of the 121 targeted accounts, the snoopware was successful in breaching 20 accounts. However, Whatsapp told the government that it was unable to determine what data, if any, was accessed on the targeted devices.
