**Cellebrite Stops Digital Forensic Tool Use in Serbia**
Amnesty International says the company Cellebrite has stopped its digital forensic equipment use in Serbia. This decision was made after Amnesty’s investigation found that Serbian police and intelligence services misused these tools to target activists and journalists.
