Korea Telecom allegedly targeted hundreds of thousands of its own customers with malware in a bid to stop them using torrenting sites.
Local media outlets claim Korea Telecom ( KT ) used illegal methods to try and curb the use of peer-to-peer (P2P) downloading software.
KT set up an entire division dedicated to developing, maintaining, and distributing the malware.
The entire operation started in May 2020 and, at one point, affected roughly 600,000 people.
