Kropotkin (BookWyrm) quoted El enemigo conoce el sistema by Marta Peirano

Marta Peirano: El enemigo conoce el sistema (Paperback, 2019, Debate)

Una investigación de Privacy International reveló que los servicios secretos egipcios habían contratado tecnología de Nokia Siemens Networks para pinchar las llamadas de sus ciudadanos y una infraestructura alternativa para seguir conectados después de «apagar» la red. También usaban software espía de dos empresas europeas: el sistema de control remoto de la italiana Hacking Team, que permite acceso a dispositivos ajenos de manera remota, y otro similar de la firma alemana FinFisher.
