Project Nimbus Contracts Reveal Data Notification Mechanism

The Guardian reports Amazon and Google use coded payments to notify Israel of foreign data requests.
Coded payments include NIS 1,000 for the US, NIS 3,900 for Italy, and NIS 3,530 for Ireland.
Amazon denies underhanded practices, claiming it reviews requests and protects privacy.
The Guardian argues the coding may bypass US and European legal frameworks.
Project Nimbus contracts prevent companies from restricting Israel's tech access even if terms are violated.
Microsoft declined Nimbus terms and canceled its agreement with IDF Unit 8200.
