Key insights:
- Our investigation highlights a widespread trade in data about sensitive European
personnel and leaders that exposes them to blackmail, hacking and compromise,
and undermines the security of their organisations and institutions.
- These data flow from Real-Time Bidding (RTB), an advertising technology that is active
on almost all websites and apps. RTB involves the broadcasting of sensitive data
about people using those websites and apps to large numbers of other entities,
without security measures to protect the data. This occurs billions of times a day.
- Our examination of tens of thousands of pages of RTB data† reveals that EU military
personnel and political decision makers are targeted using RTB (page 11).
- This report also reveals that Google and other RTB firms send RTB data about
people in the U.S. to Russia and China, where national laws enable security agencies
to access the data. RTB data are also broadcast widely within the EU in a free-for-
all, which means that foreign and non-state actors can indirectly obtain them, too.
- RTB data often include location data or time-stamps or other identifiers that make it
relatively easy for bad actors to link them to specific individuals. Foreign states and
non-state actors can use RTB to spy on target individuals’ financial problems,
mental state, and compromising intimate secrets. Even if target individuals use
secure devices, data about them will still flow via RTB from personal devices, their
friends, family, and compromising personal contacts.

surreptitious surveillance. We reveal “Patternz”, a previously unreported surveillance
tool that uses RTB to profile 5 billion people, including the children of their targets.
- Our examination of RTB data reveals Cambridge Analytica style psychological
profiling of target individuals’ movements, financial problems, mental health
problems and vulnerabilities, including if they are likely survivors of sexual abuse.
