We commend the U.S. Department of Justice for arresting the leadership of Oxygen, a digital forensics company accused of concealing its ties to Russia in sales to the U.S. government. Inside Russia, the same technology has been used to facilitate digital surveillance, enabling the collection of data from people’s devices that can then be used by the Kremlin to target and punish Russians for speaking out against the regime.

The US government has been buying "American made" phone-cracking tech for years. There's a catch, it is secretly 🇷🇺Russian. Dissidents have been warning about Oxygen Forensics years, journalists have poked at the company and finally... their American CEO was just arrested by the @TheJusticeDept for wire fraud Great thread by @natynettle who has been working closely on this issue 👇

This is nothing more than Russian propaganda. But im not surprised.
Francesca Albanese accusa la NATO – non la Russia – di tenere aperta la guerra in Ucraina, chiede di togliere le armi a Kyiv e, quando arriva il momento di spiegare come fermare la guerra, ammette: «non ce l’ho la soluzione». Quindi l’aggressore resta armato, l’aggredito no e la colpa se la guerra continua è della NATO. Una narrazione colonialista, complottista e perfettamente sovrapponibile alla propaganda russa. Da una relatrice speciale dell’ONU è davvero agghiacciante.

This is an interesting example hoiw difficult it is to protest under dictatorial circumstances. People went out to vote in the Russian fake elections at noon, to build long queues and thus show that there are a lot of those not supporting the war. /2

📱 What exactly is #Spyware, and what can it access? During our X Space on How Spyware and Digital Surveillance Threaten Human Rights, our panelist @natynettle explained how spyware can be used to gain access to information stored on a person’s device — from messages, photos and contacts to, in some cases, the device’s microphone. 🔎 But what does this mean for your privacy and human rights?
