It's good they look into this, but if we're talking about spyware, I'd like to see more MEPs urging the Council to oppose ChatControl.
If that passes that's not just EU funds being misused but the EU directly mandating spyware on a continental scale!

- alephnerd 1y agoWhat the MEPs in SEDE mean by spyware in this case is exploit and root kits being deployed by member states Interior/Home Affairs ministries and targeted at MEPs - not "mass surveillance" (which SEDE is largely indifferent about). Spyware in EP parlance means rootkits and zero-day exploits. This is largely a result of Predator which was co-developed in Czechia and Israel.

- hulitu 1y agoThe only error in your post is this "by a… spyware company". There are, unfortunately, more than one company (paying for) lobbying this.
