The Computer Fraud and Abuse Act of 1986 doesn't apply to NSO because fuck logic.

If you are NSO, you can openly commit computer fraud/abuse and even sell it as a product/service.

Is NSO affiliated with The Israel Lobby? That may explain it.

Well, the CFAA can only be enforced against territories under United States jurisdiction.

The US could say “tighten controls on your defense contractors or lose our support” and then do that if they don’t listen. That’ll never happen though. I’m sure plenty of TLAs use NSO software.

That doesn’t stop the DoJ from extraditing foreign nationals who never set foot on US soil before.
