Hackers created Malware masquerading as a prophylactic for the NSO group's Pegasus software. They even posted it on a site looking like Amnesty International's website. If you remember, Pegasus is a software that is used to spy on journalists, opposition, and other benign figures.
A refresher on NSO/Pegasus:
Sold ostensibly to customers who are law-abiding agencies
Used by authoritarian regimes to spy on news-paper-reporters, opposition, environmentalists, etc.
May have led to the imprisonment and/or death of their targets.
