An Italian parliamentary committee has confirmed that the government used the Israeli-made spyware Graphite, developed by the offensive cyber company Paragon, to hack the smartphones of several activists working with migrants.
The committee confirmed that Paragon provided Graphite to two Italian agencies, including the country’s external intelligence service, starting in 2023. The version of Graphite provided did not include the ability to activate the phone’s microphone or camera, the report said. Instead, it only enabled its operators access to encrypted communications on the hacked devices.
The report also confirmed that Graphite exploited a vulnerability in WhatsApp that Meta identified and patched in December 2024, one month before the spyware’s activity was publicly disclosed. The vulnerability’s discovery also caused “panic” at Israel’s military intelligence Unit 8200, according to the recent Israeli television report.
Well most countries handle it this way. You get your visa revoked and thats it. Pretty normal stuff and rarely is a judge involved. In the usa they dont even need to revoke a visa to throw you into guantanamo it seems. Non citizens normally dont have a right to stay in a country. It is a priviledge not a right.
I am not sure how i feel about needing a lot of evidence to rewoke visas.
In this case 3 ppl are eu citizens and the eu “freizügigkeit” needs more evidence than just allegations. However when a few neo nazi hooligans from ireland would storm into a university i would like them to be deported, especially if they dont even say the allegations are wrong. So i have to admit i am indifferent in this case.
All you seem to be doing is proving the original point.
