German officials admit using spyware on citizens, as Big Brother scandal grows: http://redtape.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011 ... ndal-grows

Interesting quote from article: "a lawyer representing a suspect in an illegal pharmaceutical trafficking case told journalists that his client's laptop computer had been deliberately infected with the Trojan horse by Customs agents in 2009 when he was traveling through Munich airport, according to Deutsche Wells."

First off, don't think I'm picking on the German govt. It would be very naive to think that this is not widespread behavior. Furthermore, I'm not even sure this Trojan is even needed these days. Look at what people willingly give to Google, FB, Twitter, etc. And look how quickly Google caved in to China. Plenty of like examples abound.

Must look for more cheery news.
 
It is a big thing here. The right to privacy of your data is very prominent in the german constitution.
the trojan was very bad programmed and had a lot of backdoors.
Beside that the trojans were only allowed for cases of serious crimes - but seem to be used even in some small crimes.
Will be interesting to see how our politician will lie themselves out of this.
At least it will give even more power to the already popular new party "Pirates" that is especially focused on protecting the citizen rights.
