Subject: How Mexico Became the Biggest User of the World's Most
Notorious Spy Tool
A Times investigation reveals the story behind how Mexico became the
first and most prolific user of Pegasus. It’s still using it, despite
promising to stop.
By Natalie Kitroeff and Ronen Bergman
The Israelis had come to Mexico to clinch a major sale: The Mexican
military was about to become the first client ever to buy their
product, the world’s most advanced spyware.
But before they could close the deal, an argument erupted over price
and how quickly the spy tool could be delivered. A Mexican general
overseeing the negotiations called for a pause until later that
evening, according to two people present and a third with knowledge of
the talks.

Subject: Rock Church Refuses Entry to T-Mobile Crews After Parents
Raise Concerns about Health Effects of New 5G Cellphone Antennas on School
by Frank Gormlie
>From today’s San Diego Union-Tribune:
Activation of nine newly installed 5G cellphone antennas in Point Loma
has stalled following an outcry from parents concerned about the
possible health effects on nearby schoolchildren.
Parents of students at the Rock Academy, a private Christian school at
Liberty Station that has more than 500 students in preschool through
high school, say they believe the equipment may pose a threat because
of the wireless radiation in 5G technology.
