But Smartphones are tracked and hacked by governments. And it is legal in most cases. And people are killed by governments.

In the end it doesn't matter if it's legal or not. They will do it anyways. Like it was the case with Preditor and the Greek government. Or Pegasus and Mexico. In the case of Pegasus and Mexico, people actually died.
