Man Charged With Spying on MacOS Users with Malware for 13 Years

Phillip R. Durachinsky, 28, is accused of developing and using spyware to exfiltrate sensitive user data, and producing child pornography. The FruitFly malware is believed to have been infecting thousands of victims for over 13 years. Security experts estimate that it remained undetected for years, possibly because it relied on unsophisticated code. The programmer faces charges of Computer Fraud and Abuse Act violations, Wiretap Act violations and identify theft, amongst others. He is also accused of using stolen credentials to access information for other websites.”]
