Shira Anderson, an American international rights lawyer, is Meta’s AI policy chief who voluntarily enlisted for the IDF in 2009 under a program which enables non-Israeli Jews who aren’t eligible for military conscription to join the Israeli army.
With AI a critical emerging technology for tech giants and militaries, Anderson’s role at Meta is an important one. She develops the legal guidance, policies and public relations talking points concerning AI issues and regulation for all of Meta’s key areas, including its product, public policy and government affairs teams.
At Meta, Anderson, who is based in Meta’s Washington DC office, is in familiar company. More than one hundred former Israeli spies and IDF soldiers are employed by the company, my new investigation shows, many of whom worked for Israel’s spy agency Unit 8200.
They have mandatory military service no? Then isn’t every person from Israel ex- IDF.
Yes all occupiers are valid military targets but keep in mind that

No not all people from Israel are “valid military targets”. Wtf.
That is what mandatory conscription leads to. All Israelis except for the very few who refuse service are trained soldiers with direct ties to the army. All those reservists are now participating in the genocide.

Good thing that nobody is saying that and limiting their rhetoric to armed forces occupying Palestine.

Short memory?
Can you quote the part where it says “kill all the Jews”? You are changing topic.
You understand that you’re effectively arguing for targeting Israeli civilians with violence and advocating for genocide. You’re explicitly endorsing terrorism
You’re explicitly endorsing terrorism
I am not endorsing Israel nor violence against civilians. I am endorsing the right of Palestinian armed resistance against occupation soldiers
You’re advocating for violence against civilians
No I very clearly said IDF soldiers.
Active duty IDF soldiers? Or former IDF soldiers; because you’re trying to “out” former military Israeli civilians who happen to work for facebook.
Do you believe that it is right to target any former member of the Israeli military, who is now a civilian, with violence?
The term reservist means the Israeli army can actively summon them for combat. As Israel has done for the genocide in Gaza.
Unless these soldiers decide to leave occupied Palestine they are not ex-soldiers because they are actively occupying and can be summoned for combat.
If you are talking about the ex-IDF soldiers at Facebook, they are not valid military targets if they are not occupying Palestine. Though they should face a court of law if they are using their position for Israel.
Aren’t nearly all Israelis ex-IDF? Pretty sure terrorism is mandatory in that country, and avoiding conscription is a crime.
US has never had problem with hiring evil. From bringing literal Nazis to Zionists home to further their agenda. This is after the evil they already inflicted on the natives and POC.
Hell, you might even think the US government actively seeks out these evil people to work with.
With the proliferation of former Israeli spies and solders into US big tech we are looking at the complete capture of the US national security state by pro-Israel voices.
Colour me unsurprised
Lol infiltration amirite?
I heard the guy who was in the group chat talking about the US bombing Yemen without declaring war was also an ex-IDF
Let’s call it an even 200 employees. That amounts to, rounded up, .003% of Meta’s staff of 74,067. Do with that info what you will
Only half of those are engineers. And far less are at top roles in Meta such as ex COO Sheryl Sandberg
