Spyware slinger NSO to Facebook: Pretty funny you're suing us in California when we have no US presence and use no American IT services...

Eh?

NSO is the desperate one. Should the court rule in Facebook's favor, NSO could quickly find it can't deal with any banks & it's people can't travel outside of Israel, except direct flights to authoritarian regimes. It's hard to see how it can get out of this scott free given how US Law treats "willful blindness" which is the foundation of most of it's arguments, although it's far from certain Facebook will get what it wants either. Should the court rule in NSO's favor, it gives free license for Facebook and anyone else to target NSO software for exploitation that NSO cleared the way for.
