They're all in computer vision, machine learning, ect... I doubt they helped for more than the visual search engine.

I doubt the investors really knew about the MITM attacks with the universal private key either. I think Superfish and Komodia did something bad, but the buck should stop with them.

#14As an Israeli, all I can say is that I am ashamed.
As a human, you needn't be culpable for offenses perpetrated by others regardless of their relation to you. If you belong to principles and help the people to foster them, your only shame will be from your own failures; a shame you can actually do something about. I'm a proud American but it doesn't mean what people think it means.
Shouldn't it work both ways then? If you're not culpable for offenses, why are you proud of achievments that you have nothing to do with?

#15Surely Mossad are somewhere in there too? I can't imagine an intelligence agency not having an interest in this.

Unless they are your children and you brought them up. Then there's some justification in your feelings.

#19What about criminal prosecution? In plenty jurisdictions this is illegal. Wiretaping, unauthorised access, unauthorised decryption, "Hacking", breach of privacy (manybe even copyright infringement; they edited other peoples content without their permission) or something like that is usually prosecuted harshly if it's done by a individual. I hope a company does not get away with it.

#20even thgough im Palestinian and these guys are Israeli, should we really be blaming superfish? this company makes software, seams like a bunch of hackers to me. Lenovo is the real culprit here.
