Inspired by and building on previous research and presentations on the topic (namely 0x200b's presentation from DEFCON 26*), this presentation will explore the possibility and feasibility of leveraging features of online targeted advertising platforms including Google and Facebook as a reconnaissance and surveillance tool. Unlike previous presentations at DEFCON, I intend to demonstrate that the targeted advertising attack has potential to be applied beyond the context of a red team targeting blue team personnel and can be leveraged against many average Internet users by a determined and resourced attacker. By exploring the advertising surveillance systems built into the majority of today’s Internet-connected devices and services, I hope to enable privacy-conscious individuals to better protect themselves against targeted ad information collection schemes.
