WhatsApp says spyware maker NSO Group is still targeting its users
Meta is once again asking a court to intervene in its long-running battle against spyware maker NSO Group.
AI Summary
Meta has asked a federal court to hold spyware maker NSO Group in contempt after the firm disrupted a spear‑phishing campaign aimed at WhatsApp users. The request follows Meta’s ongoing litigation that began in 2019 when it sued NSO for targeting activists, journalists and political dissidents with its Pegasus spyware. A jury last year awarded Meta $167 million in damages, later reduced by a judge to $4 million, and imposed a permanent injunction barring NSO from targeting WhatsApp and its users. Meta now seeks enforcement of that injunction.
