Original: US Military disables ad trackers amid concerns over troops' safety
The US military has disabled advertising trackers on its websites amid fears the data they generate could expose the locations and movements of American service members. The move follows warnings that tracking tools embedded in government sites can leak sensitive information to advertisers or adversaries, a concern heightened by current tensions with Iran.
Why now: Rising US-Iran tensions have put renewed focus on operational security risks to troops.
