Apple also suggests banning NSO groups from keeping seek over people privacy without permission as it is deliberately a crime. They say, “The spyware was used to attack a small number of Apple users worldwide with dangerous malware and spyware.

Apple runs one of the most sophisticated security engineering operations in the world, and we will continue to work tirelessly to protect our users from abusive state-sponsored actors like NSO Group.”
