Israeli tech a 'threat to the world' – activists

RAMALLAH, Palestinian Territories: The Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement said Israel's technology sector was 'a threat to the world, not just Palestinians' on Friday, after a report accused an Israeli firm of manipulating public opinion.

The Wednesday report by an international consortium of journalists led by French nonprofit organization Forbidden Stories said a private Israeli firm sought to influence more than 30 elections around the world through hacking, sabotage and spreading disinformation.
