What is PEGASUS spyware and why are we against it?

RENEW EUROPE strongly believes the European Union needs to take firm action to protect itself and its members from spyware like Pegasus. Seeing how Pegasus was used in Poland, Hungary, Greece against their inhabitants is disturbing. Surveillance companies should no longer get a free pass to operate by their own rules. Like all companies that do business in the EU, they need to obey our laws and respect the values that make us European. If we do nothing, this might threaten free elections to the European Parliament in 2024.
