I’m curious, why would you think it wouldn’t be closed after this long? Exploits like that are generally fixed as soon as possible.

Nice read. It was my understanding that the Pegasus exploit was never patched. It's probable that they have more malware that we aren't aware of, don't you think?

Yes, that’s always possible, although I’d say that exploits this serious (zero interaction) are quite rare. One click exploits are already much less powerful for targeted attacks, although can work pretty well for broad attacks.
