"strategic campaign to destroy media freedom" in 🇭🇺 #Hungary.
"a system for the surveillance of the opposition...designed to keep...the government in power" in 🇵🇱#Poland
The @EP_PegaInquiry PR is not mincing words about #Pegasus #spyware abuses in the 🇪🇺#EU

The @EP_PegaInquiry also raises serious questions about spyware abuses in 🇬🇷#Greece & 🇪🇸#Spain.
It's clear: spyware is a European problem.

The @EP_PegaInquiry calls for a number of regulatory actions. These are non-binding, but they make the nature of the problem clear.
Unsaid is the political pressure certain states with spyware scandals brought to bear to try and blunt the process of the committee.

The @EP_PegaInquiry calls for an independent European tech lab to do forensic analysis.
Good idea, but I have a cautionary note: The PEGA committee was targeted with strategic political interference & relentless disinformation.

The @EP_PegaInquiry also calls out foreign issues.
These are solid & reflect reality that spyware is a global problem & doesn't always begin or end within EU borders.
Also, a joint EU-US strategy! Interesting recognition of the major strides made by US #spyware.

This is the big takeaway: the @pega report provides a basis of action, and a clear sign that something is very wrong with #spyware abuses like #Pegasus within the EU.
Now it's time for the rest of the mechanisms to do their work. We'll all be watching.
