Or maybe having been affiliated with Hezbollah is the death sentence.

Anyhow, metadata fusion for targeting is commonly used by most countries now.

Yes, it’s the new normal. That’s the issue that worries me, not to which specific war/faction this applies.

Going from “Metadata fusion for targeting advertising” to “same, but for killing”, mark to me the moment where an industry is complicit.
