Journalists, activists, and political dissenters are increasingly being targeted by 'surveillance-for-hire' companies, Meta has warned.

Unfortunately, these groups aren't always that easy to eliminate, with many of those it removed in 2021 having created new fake accounts and changed their tactics, updating their software to evade detection and setting up new domains to circumvent blocks.

"Our investigation found CyberRoot target people around the world, working in a wide range of industries including cosmetic surgery and law firms in Australia, real-estate and investment companies in Russia, private equity firms and pharmaceutical companies in the US, environmental and anti-corruption activists in Angola, gambling entities in the UK, and mining companies in New Zealand," says Meta.
