"Infiltrated" seems like a clandestine action even though they just selected her to be on the board. It's not like her having been on WEF council ("Chair of the World Economic Forum Global Agenda Council on the Future of Internet Security") was a secret to people who made her a board member since it's very available info.

Thanks to the way back machine we can see that they quietly erased Rosemary Leith's bio of her affiliations with the WEF.

Now why would they do that?

I think especially right-wingers have made the WEF into some Jewish conspiracy theory and it has taken a life of its own so might just be bad PR. Tbh that seems like the simplest option. You don't want to scare away the potential customers.
