Mexico's Surveillance Law: Privacy, Power, and Public Alarm

The source discusses a newly approved "spy law" in Mexico that grants broad access to personal data, including biometrics and financial information, to security agencies like the SSPC and Guardia Nacional. While proponents argue the law is for combating serious crimes and includes judicial oversight, critics raise significant concerns about privacy violations and potential for abuse. These concerns are amplified by past incidents like the Pegasus scandal, where surveillance was allegedly used against journalists and activists, leading to widespread public skepticism regarding the independence of judicial oversight and the security of centralized data platforms. The law is seen as expanding previous surveillance capabilities and has sparked intense political and public debate, with many fearing it could be used to suppress dissent and erode fundamental rights, making effective, independent judicial oversight crucial for its implementation.
