Quick NSO Group Update

June 20, 2022

Two items for the estimable NSO Group caught my attention.

The first is a Reuters (the trust outfit!) item called “Spanish Court Calls CEO of Israel’s NSO to Testify in Spying Case.” The trusted write up reports that t6he “rogatory” commission will head to Israel and investigate. Nothing new with this. The CEO appears to be a person of interest.

The second is an Axios story with a pat-on-the-back headline: “Scoop: Israelis Push US to Remove NSO from Blacklist.” The core of this item is that looked at one way, routine discussions are underway. Looked at another way, lobbyists are beavering away. NSO Group has not hired one law firm to work on the blacklisting. Nope, NSO Group has two law firms loosing legal eagles.

NSO Group has lost some PR traction to the Alphabet Google YouTube DeepMind Bob Hope-ism that its software is alive and as smart as a seven year old. I think crows are as smart as seven years old. Despite the best efforts of those who want to discredit the specialized software vendors, AGYD’s mastery of messaging is at the top of the heap.

Keep trying NSO Group.
