Microsoft omorganiserar kontor i Israel efter datautredning

Microsoft har omorganiserat sin verksamhet i Israel efter en intern utredning rörande etiska frågeställningar kring rutiner för datalagring. Den verkställande direktören och flera andra chefer har lämnat företaget. Kontoret kommer temporärt att övervakas av Microsoft Frankrike.

Förändringarna följer rapporter om att Israels försvarsministerium har använt Microsofts molntjänster för att lagra känslig data som samlats in genom övervakning i Gaza och på Västbanken. Microsoft avslutade sitt avtal med en underrättelseenhet inom IDF i september förra året efter att protester uppstått kring samarbetet.
