The Saudi family is invested in a lot of SV companies via Softbank's Vision fund (The Saudi fund also owns 5.4% of Uber, directly).

I don't think Uber, specifically, had anything to do with Khashoggi murders (with regards to the coverup).

A Saudi Prince also invested in Lyft

In addition to the SV companies there is WeWork, which is headquartered in New York. Also a bit surprising when I first heard about it.

The Arabs are all rolling in cash. It would be hard to find a large company they don’t partly own, just because of the sheer odds.

What experiences would you anticipate being different for you if you believed one way or another?
