CATALAN MEPs have urged the EU not to look the other way and introduce a moratorium on the use of a controversial spyware program that was used to target the region’s independence leaders.
Diana Riba i Giner, who is the vice-chair of the EU Parliament’s spyware inquiry, said the use of Pegasus must be halted until the European Union and nation-states can agree on a set of rules on how it is used.
The Barcelona politician said she is one of 65 Catalan independence supporters, including journalists and politicians, who were hacked.
