Samsung has partnered with the Israel occupation tech firm IronSource to integrate surveillance software called AppCloud into its A and M series smartphones, SMEX @ smexorg revealed in a recent investigation. 

This collaboration targets users across West Asia and North Africa.

▪️The software collects sensitive data without user consent, and although it is difficult to remove, Samsung has not disclosed the full extent of its capabilities, leaving users unaware of what data is being collected, for whom it is being collected, or how it is being used. 

▪️This partnership raises concerns about privacy, digital rights, and security, particularly in countries where Israeli tech is banned. It also poses national security risks, especially in regions targeted by Israel, by enabling unauthorized data collection through surveillance software.

Interesting point! Laws do serve as a check against overreach, much like quality regulations in brewing ensure consistency and consumer trust.
