What countries are surveilling their journalists and with what tools? CPJ has documented the answers.

The Committee to Protect Journalists, published a map yesterday, comprehensively illustrating publicly documented efforts by state actors to surveil journalists, commentators, and in some cases, their family and associates. The map was accompanied by a press release caling on world leaders to "regulate spyware" and "halt surveillance of journalists." The report also documents the surveillance tools known to have been used in these operations and the companies that develop them.
