New Delhi: CPM on Thursday said Spyware Skandal Pegasus is not only a case of privacy and illegal violations, but is part of “greater authoritarian architecture” to “consolidate authoritarian Hindu regimes”, “intimidating” and even “squeezing” constitutional body officials.
In the People’s Democratic Editorial on Thursday, CPM said the lesson to be learned was “any means of being adopted” to build and consolidate authoritarian Hindutva regimes.
“Like UPA, computer hacking the Bhima-Koregaon case is accused of planting malware as evidence, the use of ED and other central agencies to intimidate and imprison, Pegasus is a cyber weapon against potential opponents and threats,” he said.
CPM is thought to be spyware designed to “protect those in power, to disrupt the opposition and monitor the sounds of investigations in the media”.
