Very interesting tool! It's a Real-Time Bid (RTB) Network Viewer.

There's an online Ad Network that tracks every single Web session you have ever created. This RTB platform records every detail, including name, phone, email, device fingerprint, location, search intent etc.

It then broadcasts this personal info (bids) in plaintext to hundreds of ad networks (beacons).
