I built an open dataset mapping the structural connections between Israel's tech/startup ecosystem and its military-intelligence apparatus.
The Israeli tech industry isn't a neutral commercial sector, it's a deliberate pipeline from intelligence units to billion-dollar companies. Wiz ($32B Google acquisition) was founded by four Unit 8200 veterans. SoftBank's Israel ops are run by a former Mossad director. CyberStarts, a $1.5B VC fund, openly recruits Unit 8200 graduates.
