A huge chunk of the American intelligence leaked by WikiLeaks was collected by "diplomats".

The job of diplomats is to collect intelligence and represent their government.

Whether they collect it overtly or covertly is the issue here.

The USG had an "agreement" with Israel that NSO products wouldn't be used against the USG. Uganda did.

So the USG is making it clear to Israel that they have to rein in NSO and other "private enterprise" spy product providers.
