Investigation Launched into Exxon Lobbyist over Hacking of Environmental Emails

Reported about 5 hours ago

The FBI is investigating a long-time Exxon Mobil consultant for alleged involvement in a hacking operation targeting environmental activists. This operation reportedly started in 2015, with the DCI Group providing names of critics to an Israeli private investigator, who used mercenary hackers to breach email accounts. Stolen documents were then leaked to discredit environmental lawsuits against Exxon, which has denied any wrongdoing. The case underscores concerns about cyberespionage impacting judicial processes and the manipulation of climate change litigation.
