Description
Images of buildings of the Spanish transnational Telefonica in Caracas after the company revealed requests for "interceptions" of more than 1.5 million of its phone lines and internet access in Venezuela in 2021, which human rights advocates said signalled the advance of a state "mass surveillance" programme.
