Convicted spyware chief hints that Greece's government was behind dozens of phone hacks | TechCrunch
"I believe a conviction without evidence is not ⁠justice, it could be part of a cover-up and even a crime. I am willing to share evidence with national and international regulators."
"Whether or not Dilian is a scapegoat, as he claims, the remark is the most direct suggestion yet from anyone inside Intellexa that the Mitsotakis government authorized the hacks."
The founder of Intellexa, Tal Dilian, intends to appeal his conviction for illegally obtaining personal data during a mass-wiretapping campaign in Greece. This scandal, known as 'Greek Watergate,' involved hacking phones of government officials and journalists using Predator spyware. Following the revelations, several senior Greek officials resigned, yet no government officials faced charges. Dilian, sentenced to eight years in prison, claims his conviction lacks evidence and suggests it may be part of a cover-up, asserting he is not a scapegoat and is willing to share evidence with regulators.
