UK court rejects Bahrain immunity claim in spyware case

Summary
The UK Supreme Court ruled that Bahrain cannot use state immunity to block a lawsuit filed by two dissidents alleging the Bahraini government used the FinSpy spyware to monitor them and their contacts, including political prisoners, journalists, and torture victims. The court determined that because the hacking occurred within the UK, Bahrain’s claim of immunity was invalid.
