"US Implements Visa Restrictions for Misuse of Commercial Spyware"
The Biden administration has announced a policy that could result in the cancellation of entry visas for executives, investors, and employees of companies producing offensive cybersecurity technologies if their spyware is misused against political activists, human rights defenders, or journalists. This move is seen as part of the ongoing tensions between the U.S. and Israel, particularly between President Biden and Prime Minister Netanyahu, and is aimed at curbing the activities of spyware firms like NSO and Intellexa.
