Revealed: Israel demanded Google and Amazon use secret 'wink' to sidestep legal orders

I'm low-key worried about this deal... I mean, what if there's like a US politician who's all "Hey, we need that data from Israel" and Google is all "Uh, can't do it"? And then they're all "Oh wait, our Israeli friends are paying us more than the US government so we gotta give them the data"... It's like, what's the real motive here? Are we really just trying to protect Israel's interests or are we trying to avoid some US laws that might be a bit... inconvenient for Google and Amazon? 🤔 I mean, as a user of their services, it's kinda unsettling to think that my data could be used against me like that. 💻
 
I'm really uneasy about this whole Project Nimbus situation 🤔. It seems like Google and Amazon are essentially creating a clandestine notification system that allows Israel to swoop in and grab their data whenever they want. The fact that it's hidden in payment amounts is just mind-boggling - I mean, what other country would use a secret code in its payments? 🤑

The whole thing reeks of an attempt by the Israeli government to circumvent US and European laws on data protection 🚫. But here's the kicker: if Google and Amazon start making decisions based on contractual obligations over complying with law, they're basically breaking some serious regulations 🤯. It's like they're playing a high-stakes game of moral relativism where they try to convince everyone that their actions are justified.

Ultimately, this deal feels like a Faustian bargain - Google and Amazon get to keep the Israeli government happy, but in doing so, they're putting their own data security at risk 🚨. I just hope we have some decent regulators keeping an eye on these behemoths 👀.
 
omg this is so sketchy 🤯 google and amazon are basically creating a secret backdoor for israel to get its hands on sensitive info without anyone even knowing 😳 it's like they're trying to avoid US and EU laws by making some kinda "payment code" thing 📊 that alerts them when their data has been shared with foreign law enforcement. i mean, what if they have to choose between following the contract or going against the law? that's a pretty big problem ⚠️
 
🚨💻 this whole project Nimbus thing is wild, i mean like what even is the point of having a secret code in payments? its just another layer of complexity that companies are expected to deal with and honestly im not sure how google and amazon can be sure theyre not getting caught up in some Israeli law enforcement drama. i feel like this is a giant loophole waiting to happen 🤔 and what really gets me is the whole "protecting Israel's interests" vibe - sounds like some major hand-wringing about data protection from companies trying to avoid US/EU laws... 🤑
 
😱 can't believe what's going down here! I mean, one minute you're talking about protecting sensitive info, next thing you know is companies are basically writing their own rules 🤣 and the Israeli government gets a wink whenever they want some data accessed 💡 meanwhile, it raises major red flags for Google & Amazon as US companies - what if they get pressured to share data with Israel vs. following their own laws? 🤔 that's like saying "oh, we'll just do our own thing while pretending to follow the rules" no thanks! 😒
 
🤔 This Project Nimbus thingy is super shady 🚫. I mean, who needs a secret code in payment amounts just to let Israel know when its data is being snooped on? It's like they're basically giving the green light for Israel to get its hands dirty with foreign law enforcement. And it raises so many questions about Google and Amazon's responsibility as US-based companies... do they really have to choose between following their own laws or complying with Israeli demands? It's a slippery slope, you know? 📉 And what's up with this "protecting Israel's interests" thing? Sounds like a convenient excuse for them to skirt around some serious data protection regulations. 😬
