NSO Group was included to the US blacklist as component of the Biden administration’s plan, right after allegations that it was harming US pursuits overseas. Progressives in the Democratic Celebration and in Congress were being furious that a variety of overseas governments were being allegedly capable to spy on US citizens abroad, as properly as human legal rights activists and journalists in non-democratic international locations, in contradiction to the insurance policies of the Israeli company. Immediately after taking action from NSO and Israeli spyware rival Candiru, Israel’s Ministry of Protection tightened standards for granting export licenses to cyberattack firms, and “Globes” just lately noted that the harder new criteria are persuading some spyware organizations to take into consideration closing down.

A senior Israeli official advised Barak Ravid, “We advised the US that they cannot damage NSO and that many lousy clientele does not suggest the company’s products and capabilities are no extended necessary.”
