Discover-Tech, an Israeli digital advertising agency, has been accused of spying on internet users through a vast network of online ads. Reports from Citizen Lab and Confiant reveal that the agency facilitated access for surveillance firms like Candiru to advertising platforms, enabling them to track users and potentially install spyware. The ads reached over 120,000 websites and 75,000 apps, compromising the privacy of millions. Discover-Tech's ads targeted sensitive sectors, including government and media, raising concerns about national security. Google has removed the agency from its advertising platforms due to policy violations, and Discover-Tech's access to the online advertising market is currently blocked.
