==Protest activity==
With the outbreak of the protest against the judicial reform in January 2023, Radman left his occupations and, together with other activists, founded the "High Tech Protest". Radman works voluntarily to convince citizens who support the reform to reconsider their position, by dismantling fake news in the videos he distributes and in media interviews. In addition, he holds information sessions and meetings with supporters of the judicial reform, in order to explain the meanings and dangers inherent in it. In March 2023, he initiated and published the newspaper "Israel the day after" whose purpose is to reflect on the consequences of the judicial reform (if it comes to fruition) on the future day-to-day life in Israel. The newspaper was distributed in 50 thousand copies throughout the country and was also distributed digitally.
Radman is a prominent field activist in the protest, and was arrested three times by the police. The first arrest occurred on March 1, 2023, during a demonstration in Tel Aviv. The second arrest took place on March 23, 2023, in Tel Aviv, as part of a national day of disruption as part of the protest. According to Radman, during the arrest he was beaten by policemen and evacuated from the scene of the arrest by an ambulance. He was later diagnosed with a concussion and admitted to intensive care at Ichilov Hospital. According to him, his arrest was done deliberately by the police due to his centrality in the struggle. On the day of his arrest, several other protest leaders were arrested, including Dr. Shikma Bressler, the leader of the Black Flags protest. The third arrest took place on June 2, 2023, at a demonstration held in front of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's residence in Caesarea. Also in this case, according to a document that was circulated, the arrest was violently executed and he was taken to a hospital after a medic stated that there was a fear that he was suffering from a concussion.
During the months of the protest, he speaks on various stages throughout the country as part of the protests, sometimes at several demonstrations on the same day, including at the main demonstrations in Ashkelon, Ra'anana, Herzliya, Ramat Hasharon, Petah Tikva, Kiryat Ono, Be'er Sheva and Rehovot.

On July 18, 2023, together with other protest leaders (Professor Shikma Bressler, Ran Harnevo and Ami Dror), he initiated a mass foot march from Kaplan Street in Tel Aviv to Jerusalem as an act of protest against the coalition's intentions to approve in the second and third reading the law to reduce the reasonableness clause. On July 24, 2023, Radman was arrested by police at a mass protest rally near the Knesset.
