WhatsApp celebrated a legal victory against NSO Group, stating that the ruling holds the company accountable for illegally targeting journalists and activists using their spyware.
The judge, Phyllis Hamilton, ruled that NSO Group violated both state and federal US hacking laws, reinforcing the notion that illegal actions from spyware companies will face consequences.
Fourth U.S. government courts recognized that NSO Group had failed to comply with court orders regarding the provision of their spyware source code, leading to sanctions against them.
Meta expressed gratitude for the ruling, emphasizing that it signals an end to the evasion of responsibility by spyware companies who conduct unlawful surveillance.
