Europe's Spyware Exports
Human Rights Watch revealed that data from seven European countries showed surveillance technologies being exported to at least 24 countries with troubling human rights records. The cases included hacking software and communications interception systems exported from Bulgaria to Azerbaijan in 2022, and interception systems exported from Poland to Rwanda in 2023. Although these exports are subject to EU Regulation 2021/821, the investigation found inconsistent enforcement of controls and a lack of transparency. Polish authorities said their assessment found no grounds to block exports to Rwanda. On October 26, 2026, nine human rights organizations called on the European Commission to strengthen risk assessments, disclose the recipients of export licenses, and update controls, amid concerns that the technologies could be used against journalists and opposition figures.
