Not necessarily force. Government can do a lot toward either direction - facilitating or blocking a deal. And when somebody comes with a boatload of money noticeable on the scale of your GDP, the government would hardly stay neutral. Just look at all the circus around Foxconn in Wisconsin for example and that is much smaller scale wrt. US GDP.

Not so sure about the force per se, but NSO group has been pretty much a bargaining chip in securing the support for the State from autocratic nations around the globe.

You seem to be half-way right. Wiz took 1.9B total. The last 1B was on $12B valuation and the previous rounds, except series A where i don't see data, were also under 10%. So, yes, the investors probably own about a half.
