EFF Warns US ‘Deserves Stronger Spyware Protections Than Biden’s Executive Order’
“But that doesn’t mean there will be no government use of spyware in the United States….”
The executive order arrived only days before revelations that the United States, which was previously thought to have steered clear of some of the most infamous foreign spyware products, actually had a contract to test and deploy the notorious Pegasus created by Israeli company NSO Group. The contract was signed under a fake name on November 8, 2021 between an organization that acts as a front for the U.S. government and an American affiliate of NSO group. Only five days before, on November 3, 2021, the U.S. Commerce Department added NSO Group and other foreign spyware companies to a blacklist — the “Entity List for engaging in activities that are contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States.” So the signing of this straw contract was in apparent breach of this ban. NSO Group is just one of the companies that should be covered by the new executive order….
Though the NSO Group’s Pegasus spyware has garnered particular attention for its widespread use against human rights advocates, journalists, and politicians, the executive order did not name any company specifically, keeping the policy broad. This may lead some government agencies to think that their purchase of foreign spyware might fly under the radar if it comes from another, smaller vendor, or the vendor can plausibly deny that it is really spyware that they are selling. We urge the Biden administration to publish a non-exhaustive list of spyware companies included as part of this ban. That would send a clear message to agencies who wish to exploit any ambiguity in order to skirt the law.
The EFF applauds the U.S. order for specyfing ways in which spyware is not to be used — including a ban on its use against journalists, activists, political figures, and any U.S. person “without proper legal authorization, safeguards, and oversight.”
And the EFF also notes positive signs of progress towards stopping government misuse of spyware:
Building upon the U.S. executive order, a global coalition of eleven countries, including Australia, Canada, Costa Rica, Denmark, France, New Zealand, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the United States, are working towards a common goal of countering the misuse of commercial spyware. This alliance is committed to establishing robust guardrails and procedures that uphold fundamental human rights, civil liberties, and the rule of law, within each of their respective systems.
But the EFF also points out the biggest concern of the U.S. government appears to be with the dangers in spyware that’s foreign made. “While this signals discomfort with foreign-made spyware, no one should take this as an indication that the U.S. government is averse to using similar technologies developed internally, or indeed acquiring foreign spyware companies for domestic use.
“Given the government’s long history of using and abusing incredibly invasive techniques, people in the United States should push for robust human rights safeguards to ensure the government won’t proceed with only the minor restrictions of this executive order to rein them in.”
