NSO Group Faces Legal Scrutiny Over Pegasus Spyware Misuse
WhatsApp has achieved a legal victory by having U.S. court documents unsealed, revealing that NSO Group, the maker of Pegasus spyware, cut off 10 government customers for abusing its software. The documents detail NSO's operations, including the use of exploits like "Eden" and "Heaven" to target WhatsApp users, and challenge NSO's claims of non-involvement in customer operations. This development is part of WhatsApp's ongoing lawsuit against NSO for violating U.S. anti-hacking laws and targeting users, including journalists and activists.
