New York, November 25 (RHC)-- Apple has filed a lawsuit in U.S. federal court against the Israeli firm NSO Group, accusing the surveillance company of hacking Apple devices with its Pegasus spyware.
In the suit, Apple denounces NSO as “amoral 21st-century mercenaries,” who’ve used their technology to enable human rights abuses. The lawsuit is the second of its kind.
Facebook sued NSO for targeting its WhatsApp users in 2019. The Pegasus spyware has been used by governments to target hundreds of activists, journalists and government officials.
