Israeli #spyware company #NSO Group was ordered by a U.S. federal court on Tuesday to pay #WhatsApp and its parent company #Meta €150 million in damages after its cyber tools were used to hack around 1,400 WhatsApp accounts.
Some of this is punitive damages, some compensatory damages that go to WhatsApp. I don't think those who have been spied upon will see any of that money, will they? :/
