Ok, for the record I hope both firms and their legal advisors lose in some sort of Deus Ex Machina event, however.....
If you sell alcohol to an intoxicated person in a pub, it's an offence.
It may very well be an offence, but it is one that is practically never enforced - see any town center on any normal Friday night for details.
If you sell items to a person knowing they are going to be used to commit a crime it is an offence.
IF, and it is a big if, the company only sold to sovereigns then those countries could pass legislation allowing the use of their new toy, thereby making it legal.
There's many reasons why I believe these companies are doing wrong, but they're not the reasons you give.
