NSO Group's spyware was used in attempted and successful
hacks of 37 smartphones belonging to journalists, government officials and
human rights activists around the world, according to an investigation by 17
media organizations published on Sunday.
NSO denied the report and said its product was intended only
for use by government intelligence and law enforcement agencies to fight
terrorism and crime.
"When we learned of this activity, we acted quickly to
shut down the relevant infrastructure and accounts," an Amazon
spokesperson said in a statement on Monday.
Amazon did not immediately clarify if the accounts were
related to NSO Group.
