Customs and Border Protection (CBP) bought data from the online advertising ecosystem to track peoples’ precise movements over time, in a process that often involves siphoning data from ordinary apps like video games, dating services, and fitness trackers https://www.404media.co/cbp-tapped-into-the-online-advertising-ecosystem-to-track-peoples-movements/ - in case the links between surveillance capitalism and trad jackbooted fascism weren't already clear. Ban data profiling.

CBP Tapped Into the Online Advertising Ecosystem To Track Peoples’ Movements

Obsessed with this quote from an AI bro who is under the impression that horses "can do whatever they want now" as a result of the invention of the car.

PSA: The Amazon wishlist doxing threat is much greater and more immediate than folks might realize. Attack works like this:

Stalker who wants your address opens an Amazon seller account and lists themselves as a third party seller for any item on your public wishlist. Then, they order the item from themselves as a gift for you. Bam, they have your address.

In particular, attack does not depend on an existing third party seller having poor PII handling hygiene, like the articles have implied.
