    Looks to be a pegasus like program, I didn’t see any evidence of ISP’s conducting mass surveillance on users.

    Like pegasus, predator software is a commercial surveillance tool. So it will have to be distributed in accordance to EU law, the union the companies country resides in.

    Unlikely to be a major threat to average Joe’s, but journalist and politicians beware.

    Please be considerate when publishing articles from indirect sources, third party blogs put on the tin foul hat very quickly.

      Let’s hope that actually happens. But then again, there’s people pushing for EU law to include total surveillance of any and all communication, so…
