"description": "Kape Technologies is better known by the name under which they were formerly incorporated - \"Crossrider\" but make no mistake they are the same company which became notorious as an adware/malware producer. \nKape Technologies was originally known as Crossrider until the name change in 2018. The reason for that was, as CEO Ido Erlichman put it, “strong association to the past activities of the company.” Perhaps that refers to infecting users devices with malware and adware, considered “high-risk” by Symantec and Malwarebytes.\nIf that wasnt enough, Crossriders Founder and first CEO Koby Menachemi, was part of Unit 8200 something that can be called Israels NSA. Another key person, Teddy Sagi, who is the main investor in both Crossrider and Kape Technologies, is mentioned in the Panama Papers.",
