We found that Discover-Tech delivered ads via Google, Yandex and other ad vendors including Beeswax (Comcast), Vungle (Liftoff), Eskimi and Sunteng.
Discover-Tech was listed as a 'certified' and 'approved' ad vendor by Google and the advertising industry association IAB Europe from 2020 until Oct 2026.
The ad vendor registries maintained by Google and IAB Europe helped make Discover-Tech appear to be a legitimate vendor and facilitated its participation in the advertising ecosystem at scale.

Discover-Tech operated a platform called 'Controlium' that enabled its spyware partners to profile and automatically infect devices when an ad was shown.
To make this work, they 'exploited' the real-time auction system that underpins targeting and data harvesting in today's digital advertising ecosystem. They also 'exploited' the ability to run code attached to ads in apps and browsers.
Discover-Tech operated its own ad buying platform called MyDSP and also used DSPs operated by other firms.

At the core of our report is the Israeli firm Discover-Tech Ltd, which presents itself as a 'legitimate' advertising firm but which we found operated as a bridge between surveillance vendors and the digital advertising industry.
As a result of the investigation, Discover-Tech has now been widely disconnected from the ads ecosystem.

Sorry my question is also incomplete, and by that I mean that the end software needs to be pleasant to use for people (certain micro seconds of response time depending on the task).
Or am I not understanding how language models generate code ? Or am I not understanding what Ken Thompson wrote about Trusting trust ?

Knowing that some good friends and colleagues still rate Mastodon, and with Meta's social media sites only getting worse, I figure it's time to start posting here again.
To kick things off, here's some recent #paleoart of the iconic #sauropod Cetiosaurus in a Jurassic landscape. All the plant recons are based on work by @Palaeojules. The composition is heavily indebted to a famous (non-palaeo) artwork.

I mean not all hardware contains the same instructions or even microcode or even the same amount of processing power or ram.
For example my current hardware cpu the instructions are
fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ht tm pbe syscall nx rdtscp lm constant_tsc arch_perfmon pebs bts rep_good nopl xtopology nonstop _tsc cpuid aperfmperf pni pclmulqdq dtes64 monitor ds_cpl vmx smx est tm2 ssse3 cx16 xtpr pdcm sse4_1 sse4_2 popcnt aes lahf_lm pti tpr_shadow flexpriority ept vpid dtherm ida arat vnmi
and mitigations since I don't use intel microcode
Have you ever tried to vibe code something by adding that it has to take into account that the finale code/binary it has to work with those conditions ?
