A federal judge has issued a permanent injunction against NSO, prohibiting the spyware maker from targeting WhatsApp users with its Pegasus app. This ruling follows a lawsuit by Meta, which accused NSO of attempting to infect approximately 1,400 devices belonging to various high-profile individuals. The judge emphasized the harm caused by NSO's actions to WhatsApp's business and user privacy, although she declined to extend the injunction to foreign governments or other Meta platforms.
