Could you quote a paragraph from that article that supports the claim

> Kaspersky was spying on international citizens for over a decade, providing data for both the FSB and GRU.

I read it through twice and aside from implication the strongest assertion was that Bloomberg had seen emails that confirmed Kaspersky had worked with the FSB to supply anti-DDOS systems that included counter measures (the ability to hack and disrupt hackers attacking systems) which wasn't denied by Kaspersky who maintained they do similar work with many governments and their 3-letter-agencies.

There's apparently an entire wiki on the subject and again it's mostly speculation, misunderstanding (ie, in the NSA case), or as you said misrepresenting what was essentially a pretty innocuous defensive gov contract by an infosec company.

It makes sense for western governments to be wary of using it but going beyond that is just speculation at this point.
