I guess I am getting cynical. What is the context in which trigger Apple to sue them now, and not any time before?
And what if NSO Group closed the branch in US? I assume you cant really do anything to an Israeli company.
Because half of it reads a lot like a PR pieces to me. And Apple easily gets the marketing message response they wanted. They are fighting "State Sponsored" spyware. The privacy message they are sending out ( fighting on behalf of their user ), in the mist of a worldwide App Store battle and Anti-Trust.
And I am willing to bet this message will be used in their future PR message when they discuss it in Anti-Trust to gain public support.

Apparently Facebook has a similar suit against NSO and just had a significant ruling go their way. NSO had claimed they were immune since they were acting as foreign government agent.
I’m guessing Apple was waiting to see how that ruling went before proceeding, since if NSO had won Apple would have to take a completely different approach.
