Block any legislation or rule that allows spyware to be installed on personal devices without explicit, informed consent. This is a fundamental privacy issue, and the answer is simple: people have a right to know when their devices are being monitored and by whom.
Spyware does not just collect data. It exposes private communications, financial records, and personal relationships to whoever controls the software. Once that access exists, there is no guarantee it stays in authorized hands. The risk to ordinary people is not theoretical.
Strong privacy protections are not a burden on law enforcement or industry. They are the baseline a free society requires. Vote to protect constituents from covert surveillance, and oppose any measure that weakens consent requirements or limits legal remedies for spyware victims.
