As per news report of The Indian Express, Milan-based RCS Lab, whose website claims European law enforcement agencies as clients, developed tools to spy on private messages and contacts of the targeted devices, the report said. Google’s findings on RCS Lab comes as European and American regulators weigh potential new rules over the sale and import of spyware. “These vendors are enabling the proliferation of dangerous hacking tools and arming governments that would not be able to develop these capabilities in-house,” Google said. Apple and the governments of Italy and Kazakhstan did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
