> French lawmakers have given French police the legal authority to spy on suspects by remotely activating cameras, microphones, and GPS location functionality on a person’s smartphone and other connected devices And, technically, how are they going to do that? Oh, wait, maybe the tech already exists, is already operational and is already used by other nation states? It may be a "feature" of all our Android and iOS smartphones. BTW if it's not I don't know how France actually plans to implement that.
