Washington, July 15 (RHC)-- Leaked documents appear to show an Italy-based private spyware company known as the Hacking Team was selling its products to U.S. law enforcement agencies and repressive governments around the world.

The Hacking Team sells software which lets users seize remote control of another person's computer. Its customers include the FBI, the Drug Enforcement Administration and the U.S. Army, as well as foreign governments including Ethiopia, Sudan, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain. The documents were published to the company's own Twitter feed following an apparent breach.
