"he did not recall receiving the Apple notifications" so he didn't notice them.

That is kind of surprising given he is on the comittee investigating pegasus. I'd assume someone on the comittee would be paying much more attention to this than a normal person.

I wonder what triggered him to suspect he was hacked then. Since presumably something triggered him to have his phone forensically investigated.

Could those have been intercepted or suppressed somehow?

Do they send them via notification infrastructure or email? Personally I almost never check the email associated with my Apple ID so I would miss those. But if all my Apple devices were notifying me and I had a badge in Settings.app, I’d notice.

Then again, you’d think that’s the kinda thing malware developers would spend some time learning to hide from the user.

Do we know how Apple sends these? Is it just a notification, or also email?

I could be wrong here, but I can’t see any way of viewing old notifications.

It isn’t hard to accidentally dismiss one then wonder what it was. Why there isn’t there an interface for looking back?

Edit: below it says there are emails and notices on web login.
