Friends, I want to share a cybersecurity case: commercial location data used to track service members

U.S. Central Command confirmed that adversaries purchased commercial location data and tracked personnel in a theater of operations.

- Data are collected via advertising technologies and sold by brokers.
- Senator Ron Wyden's letter cites several incidents; details were not disclosed.
- This demonstrates how the data market can be leveraged for military purposes.

Why this matters: the free circulation of location data increases the risk of compromising individuals and operations.

Do you think current regulation is sufficient to govern the data market?
