CyberGhost VPN is an internet anonymization service operated by CyberGhost S.A., the formerly German/Romanian company was sold to Kape Technologies in March 2018. Kape Technologies is an Israeli company originally founded in 2011 by an ex-Israeli intelligence officer in Unit 8200 in the IDF under the name Crossrider. The company became associated with ad injection and malware. Around 2017, it rebranded as Kape Technologies. Today, it offers products such as ExpressVPN and Private Internet Access.
Between Kape's Technologies history and its connection to the Israeli military, its CEO donating to the IDF, and its owned company ExpressVPN sponsoring the likes of Ben Shapiro, makes Kape Technology, including CypetGhost VPN and all other subsidiaries, an important target for the boycott.
