## Examples
### Episode 137: Predator
[link to transcript](https://darknetdiaries.com/transcript/137/)
> What is the spyware predator ?
>> The Predator is a phone-hacking software developed by a company called Cytrox. It was discovered by Citizen Lab during their investigations. Once installed on a phone, the Predator spyware has the capability to exfiltrate files from the phone, take passwords, turn on the microphone and listen in to what's going on. It is typically installed on a victim's phone through a phishing text message that prompts the user to click a link. Once the link is clicked, it triggers a series of exploits on the phone, eventually installing the spyware. The malware then erases the tracks of the infection process.

> How is Bill Marczak related to this story
>> Bill Marczak is a senior researcher at the Citizen Lab at the University of Toronto. He was involved in the Predator spyware story as he and his team discovered and analyzed the Predator spyware. They found it while examining phones for another spyware called Pegasus. They were able to analyze the final payload of the spyware, understand what it was doing, and attribute it back to Predator. They also investigated the companies behind Predator, like Cytrox and Intellexa, and tried to understand the geopolitical implications of such an exploit being sold on the mercenary marketplace.

> something about Payload 2...
>> Payload 2 is a suspicious process that was discovered on a phone during an investigation by Citizen Lab. It didn't match any previously-known malware that they had been tracking on phones. Upon further analysis, it was found that the arguments passed into this process when it was started up included a URL, which led to a binary file for an iPhone. This binary file was an application that was identified as spyware with capabilities to exfiltrate files from the phone, take passwords, and turn on the microphone. Through further analysis, it was attributed back to Predator, a spyware made by Cytrox.
