Online advertising is no longer just a tool for marketers, it has become a sophisticated vector for surveillance and cyber espionage.

Key insights from the report: - ADINT can be defined as the weaponisation of legitimate AdTech mechanisms, notably the real-time bidding process and third-party SDKs, to collect, correlate, and operationalise large-scale data for intelligence purposes.

- ADINT can be used for group-level profiling, identification of geolocation patterns or highly targeted near real-time geolocation tracking.
