Investigație Snoop: Datele românilor ajung în posesia guvernului Federației Ruse, prin intermediul unor adrese online din Novosibirsk. Jurnaliștii au decodat rețeaua AdNow

An investigation by Snoop reveals that Romanian citizens' data is being collected and sent to the Russian government through online ads from a network based in Novosibirsk. The study tracked over 100,000 ads across Eastern Europe, uncovering a system that gathers detailed digital behavior data. Ads often appear on conspiracy and extremist sites, and the Russian government can access this information due to local laws. The AdNow advertising network, linked to Russian political figures, is identified as a key player in this data collection. Users unknowingly transmit personal information even when refusing consent, leading to potential financial fraud. The investigation highlights the broader implications of adtech in trading sensitive personal data.
