UCI LAW — University of California, Irvine School of Law (UCI Law) Professor and Director of the International Justice Clinic, David Kaye, provided expert testimony before a committee established by the Supreme Court of India to investigate the Indian government’s use of the intrusive Pegasus spyware. Prof. Kaye’s testimony concerned the alleged purchase and misuse of Pegasus spyware by the government of India. In Oct. 2021, the Supreme Court of India issued a sweeping decision calling into question the legality of the government’s use of Pegasus. It constituted a Technical Committee to evaluate the facts of intrusion in India and consider recommendations for legal constraint on its use. UCI Law students in the International Justice Clinic, under the supervision of Prof. Kaye and Digital Rights Fellow Sofia Jaramillo, assisted in the preparation of an affidavit explaining the incompatibility of the use of Pegasus with international human rights norms. The affidavit and oral testimony evaluated how Pegasus intrudes on several fundamental rights, including the rights to privacy, freedom of expression, peaceful assembly and non-discrimination.
