Meta plans legal action against NSO Group for spyware activities

Meta is taking legal action against Israeli spyware firm NSO Group for allegedly violating a court order that prohibits it from targeting WhatsApp. The company revealed that it disrupted recent phishing attempts associated with NSO, which the U.S. government has blacklisted for national security concerns. These attempts involved “1-click phishing campaigns” designed to deceive users into clicking malicious links. Meta has removed NSO-related accounts from its platform and is joined by civil rights organizations in opposing NSO’s appeal against the injunction.
