In this episode of RANE's Essential Geopolitics podcast, Emily Donahue speaks with RANE global security analyst, Charles Thorson. Uganda's recent suspected use of spyware to target U.S. diplomats highlights a recent trend of small and medium states expanding their SIGINT capabilities and using them more aggressively, moving away from purely domestic spying toward international espionage against large states, and portends a heightened cyber-surveillance threat to private organizations.
