Pegasus Snoopgate: Supreme Court Appoints Expert Committee to Inquire Into Surveillance Row

The Supreme Court appointed a committee of experts on Wednesday to investigate the alleged use of Israeli spyware Pegasus to monitor Indian citizens. The bench composed of Chief Justice N V Ramana and Justices Surya Kant and Hima Kohli stated that the three-person committee will be led by former Supreme Court Justice RV Raveendran.

The center refused to submit a detailed affidavit on the matter on the grounds of national security. These requests are related to reports of government agencies suspected of using the spyware Pegasus of the Israeli company NSO to spy on well-known citizens, politicians, and scribes. In July, an investigation conducted by a global media consortium based on leaked target data further proved that military-grade malware is being used to monitor journalists, human rights activists, and dissidents.

From a list of more than 50,000 mobile phone numbers obtained by the Paris-based news non-profit organization Forbidden Stories and human rights organization Amnesty International and shared with 16 news organizations, journalists were able to determine that more than 1,000 people from 50 countries were allegedly NSO customers for potential monitoring.

According to the Washington Post, a member of the consortium, they include 189 journalists, more than 600 politicians and government officials, at least 65 business executives, 85 human rights activists, and several heads of state. These reporters work for organizations such as the Associated Press, Reuters, CNN, Wall Street Journal, Le Monde, and Financial Times.

Tom signs Nolan’s next

This will mark the first collaboration between Tom and Christopher. While details of his next directorial aren’t known yet, it’s most likely not to have a contemporary setting. It’ll be either set in the past like, his previous film Oppenheimer (2023), or in the future like Interstellar (2014). Matt Damon, who has worked with Christopher in both, has also come on board his next.

Christopher’s next will be co-produced by him and his wife Emma Thomas’ banner Syncopy Inc and Universal Pictures, as the two production houses will team up after the Academy Award-winning blockbuster Oppenheimer last year. Prior to Oppenheimer, Christopher collaborated mostly with Warner Bros before having a fallout post the debacle of Tenet (2020).

Warner Bros then went on to produce Greta Gerwig’s musical satire Barbie, which clashed with Oppenheimer at the box office and even outperformed it globally. Warner Bros offered Christopher a cheque for the fees he waived off for helming Tenet during the pandemic. While Christopher graciously accepted the belated remuneration, he still went on to pitch his next to Warner Bros.

Tom’s busy schedule

Tom didn’t have any release this year. His last outing was Todd Graff’s psychological thriller show The Crowded Room on Apple TV last year. He’ll juggle the filming of Christopher Nolan’s next and Spider-Man 4 in 2025. Tom has been playing the superhero ever since Russo Brothers’ 2016 blockbuster Captain America: Civil War. He’s slipped into the Peter Parker shoes post that for three standalone films and two Avengers movies. Spider-Man 4 will be helmed by Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton.
