A new United Nations report says a mobile hacking tool built by mobile spyware maker, the NSO Group, was “most likely” used to hack into the Amazon founder Jeff Bezos’ phone.

The report, published by U.N. human rights experts on Wednesday, said the Israeli-based spyware maker likely used its Pegasus mobile spyware to exfiltrate gigabytes of data from Bezos’ phone in May 2018, about six months after the Saudi government first obtained the spyware.
