Stamping out the above board market for hacks, is not a perfect solution. But limiting the free flow of these hacks from private companies to law enforcement and governments will decrease their availability and abuse. The expertise to build these hacks is high, and so is the potential for abuse. If government needs to build it in house instead of calling up a vendor like NSO and forking over a few, we can expect a better outcome.
