summary
Civil society documents that governments moved from theory to practice: the UK embeds equipment interference in the Investigatory Powers Act, granting dozens of agencies broad, gagged compulsion and “Ematic” bulk-style warrants; the FBI’s Operation Pacifier infects 8,700+ devices across 100+ countries; Mexico and Colombia buy HackingTeam/NSO-style spyware and show >100 SMS infection attempts and opaque purchase records; Netherlands drafts police hacking of automated devices including use of zero-days; proposals demand a Trojan registry, source‑code deposit, logging, independent audits and delayed notification.
