Human rights activists, journalists and lawyers across the world have been targeted by authoritarian governments using hacking software sold by the Israeli surveillance company NSO Group, according to an investigation into a massive data leak.
The Israeli government didn't sell or install the software.
That's like saying the U.S. government didn't buy/pay Blackwater or Xe or whatever its called these days during the the Iraqi invasion. The money changed several different hands but the origination point was always the government.
The Israeli minister of defence closely regulates NSO, granting individual export licences before its surveillance technology can be sold to a new country.
Stop guessing. You don't know attribution, period.
Could have been an inside employee selling software on the side for exfftra cash. Just stop running your keyboard.

Dont believe me? Here's a sampling of NSO Group stories
You aren't going to like the answer, but anyway...
Spyware has legitimate, legal uses. Governments us it to spy on criminal organizations. Some governments have a different idea of what is criminal. You can't apply our standards or enforce our standards on foreign governments. If you don't like it, get the UN to figure out some universal human rights that are more inclusive than simply "right to not be killed randomly."
At least you finally admitted that it's true and they know how it's being used.

It's highly doubtful that it was some illegal side deal. People have been talking about NSO selling this stuff to sketchy governments for at least a decade now. I'm glad this is no recieving mainstream attention but this is nothing new.
Also, NSO Group like most Israeli tech companies came out of Unit 8200.
Don't tell us what's highly doubtful. You don't know, period.
