Canada's Spyware Manual, the RCMP and ODIT
The RCMP: Canada’s federal police, published a document explaining how they legally deploy government-grade spyware on phones, laptops, and other devices. This tool, called the On-Device Investigative Tool (ODIT), is basically a Remote Access Trojan (RAT) with a badge, a budget, and a court order.

In this video, we break down exactly how it works, step by step. From how it bypasses encryption to how it stays hidden, phones home to its C2 server, and captures your messages, screenshots, microphone, and camera without detection.
What makes this worth covering?
Simple: the RCMP actually published a technical manual detailing their playbook. Which means, no speculation is needed.
