FBI vows not to use Pegasus spyware after grilling from Capitol Hill
FOX NewsMAR 31 2023
Though well-known that Mexico's democracy has been pushed to its limits under the López Obrador government, the confirmed spying on journalists and activists is certainly a new low. Either the president knew about this practice and did nothing to stop it, or he has been an incompetent commander in chief of the increasingly powerful armed forces.
The latest allegations that Mexico's military has spied on its citizens are ill-founded fabrications that are intended to undermine the reputation of this institution as well as of López Obrador. While the government has indeed relied on some kind of intelligence technology to investigate and tackle crime, it hasn't engaged in espionage activity.
