    Following a link in the article, one finds that the complaints are from the Atlantic Council (alarm bells are already going off), and perhaps even more interesting an Israeli “analysis firm” called Cyabra. While Cyabra does not seem to have a wiki page, the firm has connections to an Israeli venture capital firm called TAU Ventures which does. On their wiki we can learn the following:

    Along with its venture capital operations, TAU Ventures operates an accelerator program in partnership with the Israeli Security Agency (ISA) which provides a technological platform for founders.[11][12][6] It is a four-month exclusive program that connects startups with the ISA and a US$50,000 grant with no equity clause.[11] The program is geared to companies developing civilian and commercial technologies and can benefit from various technical expertise, unique databases, technology validation, and other factors.[13] The alumni startups have raised over US$100 million.[14] Xtend,[7] Cyberpion, Talamoos,[15] Cyabra,[7] DigitalOwl,[16] Decodea, and NeuraLegion [10] are some of its alumni.

    Ah yes, literally Israeli intelligence. Doesn’t exactly take a genius to figure out what’s actually going on here lol
