The latest crisis that rocked the Greek government shows the bloc’s surveillance problem goes beyond the notorious NSO Group.
Last year in Hungary, six people discovered their phones had been hacked by NSO group’s Pegasus, after they were tipped off by the Pegasus Project, an investigation by 17 media outlets in different countries. There is no direct evidence the Hungarian government deployed this spyware against local journalists and activists, says Ádám Remport, legal officer for the Hungarian Civil Liberties Union, which is representing hacking victims in a legal case against the state.
Some in Israel believe the focus on the NSO Group is disproportionate. “There’s a feeling in Israel that a fair part of this is just Israel-bashing, and if it were any other country, there wouldn’t have been nearly as much noise about it,” says Chuck Freilich, a former deputy national security adviser in Israel. “There are companies and other countries that do the exact same or almost exact same thing. They just don’t do it as well.
For some, the situation in Greece reinforces the argument that there needs to be industry-wide regulation. “Even if NSO Group closes tomorrow because of all the problems they face today, the situation will be the same if there is no change in the regulation,” says Etienne Maynier, a technologist at Amnesty International’s Security Lab. “The problem is not one bad company. It’s really the legal structure that makes these companies take these decisions.
