>Also, how the Sauds use the tech is beyond NSO's It's not. They aided this regime, and other regimes, and chose to do so. And they knew that they weren't just selling them a few cars or some designer handbags, but actively aided in operations against everybody the house of Saud considers an enemy, and knew - just like anybody else who did some cursory googling - about the regime's targeting of any civilian opposition and protests, handing out gruesome "penalties" which can only be described as state sponsored murder, mutilation and torture. >and especially the lady's control She decides where she works. This is the old "I was only following orders, and wasn't even directly involved in any of the evils" excuse deep down. >Just like how the Sauds use American defense tech to wage war on Yemeni civilians - defense tech subsidized by the American taxpayer - that is you. And still, you continue to live in, and pay taxes to the US, instead of moving to a non-exporter of arms, like Greenland. I am not living in the US, but a country that still exports arm to the Saudis, so I kind of get your point. However, there is considerable societal backslash against this here, me being tiny part of it, to the point where the government "froze" such exports for the time being[1]. Your "just fuck off then to a nicer country" argument is built on a false premise anyway. You fix things in your society that are wrong, and you don't get to tell those people who raise concerns, which is the first step in fixing things, to just fuck off to some other nation.
