Inquiry Committee to Investigate Pegasus Use and Citizen Surveillance

The Polish Parliament has established a special committee to investigate whether state services and other authorities legally and properly used surveillance software, such as Pegasus, between 2015 and 2023. The committee will examine who purchased the software, against whom it was used, and whether the law was violated during its use. The goal is to clarify whether these actions were legal and did not infringe upon citizens' privacy.
