I'm noticing a trend here:
1. NSO Group aka the "use our tool to hack activists/political opponents"-as-a-service company, is founded by *former members of Israeli intelligence and their Unit 8200*.
2. Kape Technologies, whose software is labeled as malware by companies such as Malwarebytes and Symantec, founded by *former members of Israeli intelligence Unit 8200*
3. Black Cube, the spy-for-hire company that the likes of Harvey Weinstein hired to collect dirt on those suing him: founded by *former members of Israeli intelligence Unit 8200*
Needless to say, it's looking like using HolaVPN, an Israeli P2P VPN (founded by, you guessed it, *former members of Israeli intelligence*), is a colossally bad idea.
I'm fully aware that Unit 8200 alumni are very prolific when it comes to founding tech startups in Israel in general, but that doesn't change how brazen their industry is when it comes to selling sophisticated spyware to very bad people/governments.
- belter 5y agoHere is another trend/hint...go to LinkedIn and search, how many ex-Unit 8200 now work doing Software Development at ...Apple.
