Samsung may be embroiled in another snooping scandal. A British newspaper has discovered that Korean manufacturer is operating technology to monitor online activity and to collect data of users who have purchased these devices.

According to a report from The Sun, Samsung has integrated a technology called beacons which is used to track user activity when connected to the internet. The technology also used to collect information regarding specific content on the phone or even email messages of the users.

Privacy watchdogs have explained that Samsung is using these technologies to promote its own devices, and has accused the company of tricking people into agreeing with the use of beacons without them knowing exactly what they are agreeing with.
