Citizen Lab (who uncovered a lot of NSO Group's work with governments) also recently had what seemed to be an attempt at character assassination targeting them.
Worth pointing out that the only mobile device that Bezos has apparently tweeted from (publically) seems to be an iPhone. Doesn’t mean he didn’t have a burner phone for conducting his affairs of course.

Genuinely disappointed that it is not a Fire phone.
That would be his burner phone.

The Saudis really disliked the Washington Post digging into their murder of Khashoggi, it doesn't seem too crazy that they set their sights on the boss and ended up stumbling upon some juicy texts and pics. The really interesting part is how they got to AMI. I have to imagine there is a Trump connection somewhere along the way.
