@arstechnica guess this what happens when CIA, MI6 and five eyes what not sit on known exploits so that their friends at likes of NSO group can weaponize them for paying customers - to basically curb democracy, other undemocratic nations actually just go ahead and exploit it, thus getting discovered and making it get fixed... Don't think there are any 'good' actors in this scenario at all.
