Absolutely disagree with a non-transparent position. That is more #spyware that we have attempted to allow & are not surviving very well right now. Total #transparency is required. Even to the #enemy. Why? Because it's #principles. It's principles. Not #tactics. They can't see what they don't know.

"To that end, it recommended banning the procurement of Israeli spyware, which aids in tracking critics.

The report named NSO Group's Pegasus, Cytrox’s Predator, and Paragon Solution’s Graphite.

"The Government of Canada has many legal and diplomatic tools available to fight foreign interference," the report said, and recommended that Ottawa expel the Israeli ambassador and other diplomats, and sanction all actors involved in covert influence campaigns.

"A holistic approach to countering illicit Israeli influence will require holding Israeli state officials accountable while finding ways to discourage Canadian participation in these schemes," it concluded."

Heb de twee webpagina's over dit rapport van HumanRightWatch door zitten bladeren, ook de raw data bij GitHub. Kan nergens vinden waar het over Nederland gaat.

Wel zag ik in het Trouw artikel dat Cellebrite spyware hun kantoor in Nederland zou hebben. 🤬
Ik vind dat dit een mooi aanknooppunt is voor protesten hier tegen.
Nederland, met Paleis van de Vrede, en ICC in Den Haag, en een grote mond over democratie in Nederland zou geen Cellebrite moeten dulden.

Maar het was al duidelijk dat de Nederlandse overheid niet vies is van het kopen van spyware uit Israel. En de vraag is dan ook of spyware een belangrijke reden is waarom de Nederlandse overheid zo extreem koppig is wat betreft de connecties en handel met Israel (Denk aan de minister van onderwijs die universiteiten direct opriep de banden met Rusland te verbreken maar fel tegen het verbreken van banden met Israel was).
