Show Notes

Italian journalist Francesco Cancellatos phone was confirmed to be infected with spyware, marking the first independent verification of his case. The malware was found on his device and two activists devices from consecutive attacks in December 2024. Despite earlier warnings, the government has denied involvement, and prosecutors are continuing their investigation. The scandal has led to Paragon, the spyware provider, canceling its contracts with Italian government clients, reflecting growing concerns over surveillance abuses in Europe.
