Wow, didn’t know the U.S. is now the top investor in commercial spyware clearly a big push for cyber defense and global intelligence edge. Essentially, it’s about maintaining an edge in cyber operations and national security. The U.S likely sees commercial spyware not just as a tool for spying, but as a strategic investment to keep up with global cyber threats.

The former number one, and current number two, is anyone's guess.

My home country does not have formal diplomatic ties with them, yet we purchased and deployed surveillance tech from this country.

We live in a truly dystopian nightmare.
