I do cover it in this response:

Please note that this is quite different than Google Cloud's usage by Israels: https://theintercept.com/2025/05/12/google-nimbus-israel-mil...

Also I understand that Israel's use of Azure is only at around $30M, unlike the massive deal with Google Cloud.

I guess my point is that we need Google to do an audit like this at the minimum now (given this precedent) and show this type of transparency as that is the system that is primarily used by Israel's IDF.

Who is "we" and why do "we" need this?
