Judge denies WhatsApp’s bid to hold spyware maker in contempt for allegedly targeting users
WhatsApp sought to hold NSO Group in contempt for allegedly violating a 2025 injunction by using the messaging platform to distribute spyware. A federal judge rejected the motion, finding that WhatsApp had not provided sufficient evidence to support the contempt claim.
Why it matters: Organizations relying on WhatsApp should monitor NSO Group's spyware distribution methods, as the failed contempt motion may leave existing injunctions weakly enforced and vulnerable users at continued risk.
