- aspenmayer 6y agoThe ruling: https://www.pacermonitor.com/public/case/30721390/WhatsApp_Inc_et_al_v_NSO_Group_Technologies_Limited_et_al https://www.pacermonitor.com/public/case/30721390/WhatsApp_I... > U.S. District Judge Phyllis Hamilton on Thursday denied NSO’s request to dismiss the lawsuit. NSO unsuccessfully argued the court lacked jurisdiction because the company was immune to legal action as a contractor of foreign governments. NSO is an agent of the Kingdom of Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, and Mexico, according to Facebook’s complaint. > Hamilton did, however, grant NSO’s request to dismiss a claim that NSO wrongfully interfered with WhatsApp servers. > The case is WhatsApp Inc. v. NSO Group Technologies Limited, 19-cv-07123, U.S. District Court, Northern District of California (Oakland).
