Outcry over ExpressVPN ownership: What the Israeli connection means for user privacy

Social media users are calling for a boycott of the popular privacy service ExpressVPN due to its ownership by a firm with Israeli connections. The service was acquired in 2021 by Kape Technologies, a British-Israeli company owned by billionaire Teddy Sagi. The calls to cancel subscriptions have intensified during Israel's war on Gaza, fueled by reports that Sagi donated $1 million to support Israeli soldiers. This has raised significant concerns among privacy advocates and users about potential surveillance and the security of their data.
