"Christian geo fencing" is a term that has recently emerged in news reports to describe an Israeli government-backed public relations campaign targeting Christian churches and colleges in the United States with pro-Israel and anti-Palestinian digital ads.

The campaign is run by a California-based firm named "Show Faith by Works" on behalf of the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs, as detailed in filings under the U.S. Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA).
How the Geofencing Campaign Works
Targeting: The firm creates digital "fences" (geofences) around hundreds of major churches and Christian colleges in four U.S. states (California, Arizona, Nevada, and Colorado).
Data Collection: Mobile devices that enter these virtual boundaries are identified, allowing the firm to track attendees' location and online activity.
Ad Delivery: The firm then floods these devices with targeted ads promoting a specific point of view, which includes "combating low American Evangelical Christian approval of the Nation of Israel" and increasing awareness of "Palestinian ties to Hamas and support for terrorism".
Ongoing Campaigns: The campaign is designed to continue targeting these individuals with ads even after they leave the geofenced locations.
Campaign Details and Reactions
Funding: The campaign is a multi-million-dollar effort, with contracts valued at over $3 million, part of a larger Israeli strategy to bolster support among a demographic that has traditionally been a strong base of support but is showing cracks among younger generations.
Other Tactics: In addition to geofencing, the campaign plans include:
Hiring Christian celebrity spokespeople.
Paying pastors to produce content.
Deploying a mobile "October 7th Experience" exhibit (referring to the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack) to churches and colleges.
Reactions: Many church leaders and congregations listed as targets were unaware of the campaign and raised privacy and ethical concerns over the use of their locations for political advertising without their knowledge or consent. Religious and civil rights groups have condemned the campaign as foreign interference and called for federal investigations.

How mucha wanna bet they will track your social media presence as well...maybe "alert your pastor" when your views on certain things get out of line...especially since the pastor wants to stay a part of all the big things going on and wouldnt want to risk displeasure...

I believe this is just in its beginning stages. Yet, you are correct. Everything will be harvested and everything will be tracked. Especially if you pop up as a dissident voice as criticizing Zionist program in the United States. The whole hullabaloo concerning Charlie Kirk is pretty interestingly bizarre. How his mourning wife is appearing for interviews, not as a grieving widow, but as a defender for Zionism? This is even more bizarre when you take into consideration this woman has two small children who have recently lost their father? Charlie Kirk supposedly had a meeting in the Hamptons at a dinner with Zionist supporters. These individuals supposedly threatened him on his wanting to look further into the issues of the Epstein files, war with Iran, Israeli activity in Gaza, and is really lobbyist groups. I say “supposedly” because no one is clear or producing hard evidence to make this fact. All we have is the bizarro world of TPUSA and the very odd behavior Charlie Kirk’s widow. Things are about to get even stranger as we head into 2026. Which this year will blow by as fast as 2025. So tighten your seat belts, because it’s going to be one very interesting ride.

Oh, by the way, I’m not making a prediction. I’m just guessing.
