lost trust

questions are now being raised if the Calcalist report on the police spying via the Pegasus app is even true or accurate. Did it even really happen?

Well, I dont know if it did or did not. I assume they are anyway, as much as possible, even before Pegasus. I also assume that once you are on the Internet you have no privacy, no matter if you think you do.

What I am wondering is, even if the police want to claim that the report was not accurate and they never did that and everything was legal and with warrants or permission or whatever legal method they might come up with - I think it is too late. The public already believes it happens. Their trust in the system is damaged.

Even if the police go on a big campaign that they did not do it, how do they get back the trust of the public (if they ever even had it)?

    But... I do think this is prime to think about lashon hara and how it works. Somebody says something negative about someone else... true or false the person is damaged and as Rafi points out, undoing the damage is virtually impossible.
