These spyware alerts were sent on October 29, 2026, at around the same time the same warnings were sent to officials in Germany. Those warnings also followed a wave of spyware activity in August 2026, that saw Apple alerting people in 110 countries.
Now according to Bloomberg, Apple representatives have met with Thailand’s Ministry of Digital Economy and Society. Ahead of the talks, Minister Chaichanok Chidchob described the cyber threat as being unprecedented in scale.
