Government employees, are dedicated, intelligent, well-vetted and highly trained. Musk, who Trump allows to play on govt systems & fire those ppl, is none of those things, and should be shot.
RTB powers online ads, but it also leaks highly sensitive personal data. Every time you browse the web or open an app, advertisers can buy real-time access to your location, employment details & even your health conditionsāall without your knowledge. https://www.wired.com/story/google-dv360-banned-audience-segments-national-security/
Or is that different from the Google tracking you refer to?
Googleās own ad platform, Display & Video 360 (DV360), allows advertisers to target individuals based on traits like:
š Real-time location
š”ļø Military or national security employment
āļø Judges & government officials
š° Financial distress & debt
š Chronic health conditions
One list available through Googleās ad platform specifically targeted U.S. government employees labeled as ādecision-makersā in national security. Another allowed tracking of workers in classified defense industriesāincluding missile & encryption tech. What could go wrong with this scenario?
Foreign adversaries like China & Russia, along with powerful private entities, can buy this data and use it for espionage, surveillance, and political manipulation. This is a national security crisis that puts not only the U.S. at risk but also other nationsāeveryone is vulnerable.
Under FTC Chair Lina Khan,we had hope that these dangerous practices would be stopped. But with Trumpās appointee poised to take over, thereās a real risk that these vital protections will vanish.Google & other Big Tech giants will continue to profit from our data,& our vulnerabilities will grow
