Amnesty urges revocation of Israeli cyber firm’s license over Pegasus spyware

[PRESSTV] Amnesia Amnesty International has called on the Israeli ministry of military affairs to suspend the license of a cyber firm which was reportedly in talks with Soddy Arabia

violations."

Amnesia Amnesty International Israel said in a statement that Israeli cyberarms firm NSO Group "has gone out of control."

Sources in the Israeli ministry later said it was strict about granting licenses according to the law, and that they could not discuss the existence of NSO's license for security reasons.

Amnesty Israel rejected the response and said it intended to pursue legal action.

The development came on the heels of a report published by the Israeli English-language Haaretz daily newspaper that NSO representatives offered Pegasus 3 technology to high-profile Saudi officials back in 2017.

The report, citing a complaint filed with the Israeli police by an unnamed European businessman, noted that the Saudi officials included former intelligence chief Prince Turki al-Faisal and Nasser al-Qahtani, who presented himself as the deputy of the current intelligence chief.

#1  Sounds like a confluence of oikophobic Israelis and globalists who would favor the Palestinians.
