I don't understand how this is legal in the US. How is this not a criminal case vs a civil one??

Only individuals like Aaron Swartz are prosecuted criminally. Not a rich and powerful Israeli ally of course.

Very funny how the article keeps mentioning "spyware vendors" generally when it's basically just the Israeli ones involved.
