Many think the surveillance state is inevitable and that it's impossible to recover true privacy. But that’s exactly what Big Tech wants you to believe, argues Naomi Brockwell priv/acc. "I see it everywhere…people ask me: 'why should I bother? They already have all my information anyway.' And for me,... it's akin to saying, 'Well, why should I bother continuing to fight for freedom? I've already lost most of it anyway.'" "We're at a state where we are just skyrocketing towards a very dystopian future." But at the same time there are actually many tools at our disposal that can stop our information from being collected, she says. "All of the privacy tools are out there. We just have to choose to use them." I had the pleasure of sitting down with privacy expert Naomi Brockwell at FreedomFest. She releases excellent content where she breaks down exactly how everyday people can protect their information and protect their data privacy in the modern era. Full episode coming soon.show more

Naomi Brockwell just warned that the West has no idea how close we are to becoming a surveillance state like China. And we’ve forgotten that privacy is a pillar of a free society. “It is privacy that protects every self-correcting mechanism we have.” “Whistleblowers.” “Investigative journalists.” “Protest movements.” “Opposition parties.” “These entities can’t exist without the protection of privacy.” “When that’s gone, it is going to be so difficult to get it back.” “We’ve had people in the U.K., in the United States, in Australia, look at what’s going on in China… saying, ‘This is great.’” “‘This is a great system for control that can make society better.’” “It is so dystopian.” “We need to be looking at things like that with a giant red flag and fighting it with everything we’ve got.” “Once you get over that panopticon surveillance precipice, it is so difficult to reclaim your freedoms.” Naomi Brockwell priv/acc

“They want everything on the internet surveilled.” Naomi Brockwell warns we’re heading towards ever-greater surveillance and digital control. “We’ve got this global scenario where every country in lockstep is headed towards government ID mandates.” “They want it tied to your personal identity, and they're essentially going to end up ranking everyone the same way that the social credit system in China does the same thing.” “The biggest issue…is that the so-called Western world doesn't realize how close we are to becoming like some of these countries.” “Most people have their heads in the sand.” “They don't realize how important privacy is to the foundation of a free society.” “It is privacy that protects every self-correcting mechanism we have: the whistleblowers, the investigative journalists, the protest movements, the opposition parties.” “These entities can't exist without the protection of privacy.” “A lot of people really are taking it for granted that they have a semblance of privacy still.” “And when that's gone, it is going to be so difficult to get it back.” Naomi Brockwell priv/acc

Here is my Entry for Telegram Messenger Digital Freedom Contest inspired by Pavel Durov Digital freedom isn't just about technology. It's about people. It's about the right to communicate without fear, to protect our privacy, and to ensure our identities remain our own. This video is my reflection on why digital freedom matters in a world where every click, message, and conversation leaves a footprint. Inspired by Pavel Durov's vision, it's a reminder that privacy isn't something we should have to earn, it's something we should expect. When trusted platforms are restricted, people don't stop communicating. They simply look for other ways, often exposing themselves to greater risks. The goal shouldn't be to limit freedom, but to create a digital world where security, privacy, and open communication can coexist. Our identities were never meant to be exploited. They were meant to be protected. I hope this story encourages more people to think about the future we're building online, and the freedoms we choose to preserve. #DIGITALFREEDOM

Every internal conversation at Rogo is recorded and fed into a company brain called Shrek. "When anyone starts, we say, "Hey, just FYI, you're always being recorded." There's a dashboard where you can see the swamp of everything that people are working on at any given time, but it's connected to all of our different systems. It can shape every answer and deliverable that way, and it's both proactive and reactive. Someone can go in and say, I'm trying to get up to speed on how I should talk about model routing and how I should think about the value prop there for a very large institution and what the savings will be, and it can pull out all that information for you."

Iga Swiatek on constantly being filmed at Australian Open and other tournaments, ‘The question is, are we tennis players? Or are we animals in the zoo? It would be nice to have some privacy’ “I wanted to ask something that Coco was talking about last night. The cameras backstage at the tournament… I know you got filmed recently forgetting your credential… you’re sort of always on camera at a lot of different tournament areas.. I’m wondering if you think there should be more privacy for players and their teams as they’re back there? Or how you see the balance of that versus them trying to have entertainment and content coming out.” Iga: “The question is, are we tennis players? Or are we animals in the zoo? Where they are observed even when they’re pooping. Ok, that was exaggerating obviously, but it would be nice to have some privacy. It would be nice also to have your own process and not always be observed. For example, in other sports, you have some technical things you wanna do. It would be nice to have some space you can do that without the whole world watching. On Wimbledon there are courts where people with accreditation can get there but it’s without the fans. There are some tournaments where it’s impossible and you’re constantly observed. I don’t think it should be like that because we are tennis players. We’re meant to be watched on court and in the press. That’s our job. It’s not our job to be a meme when you forget your accreditation. It’s funny for sure. People have something to talk about. For us, I don’t think it’s necessary.” “Have you talked to the tournament about it here?” Iga: “What’s the point?” (via Australian Open Press)

Putin: The enemy doesn't hesitate to use any means. Well, it's already in the media, probably, their attempts or intentions to use even some kind of nuclear component. They probably understand how this can end. Now there is also our operational information coming in; it should be in the media today as well, it probably already is. I haven't had time to look at anything yet, but we are talking about a possible explosion in our gas systems on the bottom of the Black Sea. These are the so-called TurkStream and Blue Stream. They just can't calm down.

If there’s one lesson people are beginning to realize about modern technology, it’s this: The devices we rely on every day aren’t just tools. They’re surveillance systems. 👉 Learn more: Your phone tracks your location. Your apps collect your behavior. And now, AI integrated directly into your computer can record what you do on your screen every few seconds. Your emails. Your messages. Your searches. Even things you type but never send. That isn’t speculation. It’s the direction Big Tech has already taken. And the uncomfortable truth is that the people building these systems know exactly how powerful they are. Many of the same tech leaders who sell these devices to billions of users take extraordinary precautions with their own technology, covering cameras and limiting the very tools they encourage everyone else to use. Because data is power. And the more data that flows through these systems, the more influence the companies behind them gain over the digital world we all live in. But the playing field doesn’t have to stay that way. On Thursday, privacy experts Glenn and Eric Meder are hosting a free Privacy Academy webinar explaining exactly how these systems work and what people can do about them. During the training, they walk through how modern operating systems collect and analyze your behavior, how AI tools can build detailed behavioral profiles, and why many of the privacy settings people rely on don’t actually stop data collection. More importantly, they explain a practical alternative. Instead of relying on software designed around data collection, they show how privacy-focused systems like Linux can give users far more control over their own computers. And they break it down step by step so everyday people—not just programmers or tech experts—can understand how to make the transition. Because once you understand how these systems work, protecting your privacy becomes far easier than most people think. The free webinar is happening Thursday, March 5 at 7 PM Central, and it’s open to anyone who wants to understand how Big Tech is gathering data—and how to stop it. 👉 Register here: You can’t control the direction the tech industry chooses to take. But you can control how much access those systems have to your life. We want to thank Privacy Academy for helping everyday people understand how the digital world really works and for being a proud sponsor of this program. If you’re interested in learning more, visit do your own research, and decide if the training is right for you. Because when it comes to privacy, the most important step is understanding the system you’re living inside.

"People claim that users don't ultimately care about privacy. That may be true when it comes to some of the more incidental data about their lives. But I don't believe it is true when it comes to finance." on why crypto needs privacy to become mainstream: "In order for crypto to actually become mainstream and to be used for real applications, it's going to have to have privacy. People will care that their salary is not visible to everyone. They will care that the transactions they make online are not visible to everyone."

Trust In US Government At An All Time Low. The People In Florida Believe They’re Being Setup With Hurricane Idalia. It’s Gone Viral, Listen To This ‌ FLORIDA RESIDENT: “Did anybody else notice yesterday on the news when they were talking about this hurricane Idalia that's going to hit right at Tampa? Did anybody watch them say that the government told every citizen of Tampa, Florida, to go to the gas station and fill up their car with at least half way yesterday? But then later it comes out that 29 gas stations, 29 of the most prominent gas stations where people went and filled up with gas had contaminated gas that was contaminated with diesel fuel. ‌ Conspiracy, I think not. ‌ At this rate, the rate we're going, a conspiracy theory is just six months premature of coming true. They're all coming true. It's scary to think that our government, I've been through several hurricanes living in Georgia. People come up here to where I live and they stay in hotels and we wind up being packed anytime there's a hurricane and then people go back down but I have never ever heard of this happening and people are there are still people out there that think that Maui was not caused by the government if you do okay whatever I can't convince you any more than what everybody else has tried to convince people but please explain to me how this is just something that just happened it just happened. ‌ Not that our government wanted everybody to be stranded on the freaking highway when this thing hits so they can blow out some more people. They are trying to dispose of us. Because they want to create smart cities and smart worlds, and we are disposable to them. ‌ But come September 1st, I hope and I pray that all of us that are tired of being sick and tired shows them the power in numbers, in our numbers, in standing united behind one common goal. And I can tell you, there are people coming together, white, brown, Hispanic, it doesn't matter what color you are, it doesn't matter your race, it doesn't matter where you come from. We are all tired of being sick and tired. ‌ So we're going to do something about it. September 1st, they're asking everyone to go on strike. They are also asking that you don't participate. You don't buy anything Friday. Nothing. Don't spend your money on anything Friday. ‌ Hopefully they'll see the power in our numbers and how united and how effective we can be when we all stand united. ‌ If nothing changes, nothing changes. And something needs to change. ‌ I know that all of our ancestors are sitting here watching. ‌ My aunt, I went yesterday and visited the World War II memorial that my grandfather's name is on in his hometown and I know what he would be thinking. I know exactly what he would be thinking. Enough's enough. ‌ We fought, so many of our flesh and blood fought and died for this country. For us to just sit back and allow them to continue to screw us up the ass. I think not. I think we're a lot stronger than what they know. I think we're a lot smarter than what they think. And I think we are, they have done a wonderful job at uniting us behind a common goal. ‌ So let's see what happens Friday, you guys. Stick it to the man.

I think about this a lot. I think most people would look at this & mourn how things have changed but for me it's more of a challenge to see where this is already a reality & where it can be a vision for the future. there are so many stays who I love & trust. we're pretty amazing

Anna Paulina Luna on UFOs -“we're hoping to present that information and at least acknowledge it from a government perspective that we are not alone, but also let's see what the evidence is.” “The biggest information problems that we've had with UAPs is the amount of stonewalling stove piping, and also it seems that there is this push to gaslight the American people into looking at the evidence and then not fully believing it. I think for us, if we're writing the budget, for example, into the Pentagon, if we're writing the budget overall for whatever programs might be out there, why is it that members of Congress who are given a top secret security clearance are being denied access? That's not a free and true government, and so for us, especially being that we have now a Secretary of State who's actually open to Declassify Declassification and Marco Rubio, we're hoping to present that information and at least acknowledge it from a government perspective that we are not alone, but also let's see what the evidence is”

Are Flock Cameras Actually Good? Andrew Bustamante: "I understand why people don't like flock cameras, but I am a fan of this type of public surveillance. Because we don't have a right to privacy. We think we do, but it's not actually listed out anywhere. The term right to privacy doesn't exist, but we do have the public expectation of security from our police and from our law enforcement agencies." "So this creates a deterrent to keep right people doing the right thing, and wrong people getting caught. But it also creates a trail of evidence... that can be brought to the table to prosecute people who are charged with breaking the law. If you are a law abiding citizen, you have nothing to fear from these things. It's only if you are speeding, crossing at the red light, robbing somebody, if you're doing something that you don't want to get caught... that's when you don't like it." Sarah Adams: "A lot of people think when there's something like this, someone is sitting and watching it all day, and you really only go into this data when you're looking for a piece of info... I know cops are using it to track their exes, and I said, fire them. So I like it because the more data you have to solve a crime, better."

"The way they achieve their private transactions is exactly the trust me bro, there's a sequencer who has a reputation and you send all your transactions to that sequencer" Aztec Labs CEO Joe Andrews on why Canton's privacy is just trusting an intermediary, not real cryptographic privacy "It's what I touched on earlier, privacy through intermediaries versus cryptographic privacy. The way they achieve their private stablecoins or private transactions is exactly the trust me bro, there's a sequencer who has a reputation, and you send all your transactions to that sequencer and trust, with a non-credible commitment, that they're not going to monetize that data or sell it to anyone" "So while it jumps on the privacy bandwagon, it's basically a bunch of banks trying to adopt a different tech stack" "I think it should come out in the wash, at least for these use cases that require strong credible commitments and actual privacy that's backed by cryptographic guarantees"

BREAKING NEWS: I have proof that the country will endure a significant event before the end of the year. I told you yesterday who is orchestrating it and have lists of where many are being hidden. I also have information and video proof that outside networks are setting up to take control of our country and its citizens. I will be traveling to a couple of places outside of the United States to confirm additional information. For my safety, I will not say where, but I will show proof when I return. I am tired of not being able to share what I know here, so most will be sharing on my private site. The link is in my bio. I have access to truthful news and information that the corporate media is not covering. If I post it here, it is throttled, and one can only wonder why. I understand that this information may challenge your current beliefs and preconceived notions, but I believe in the power of knowledge and the freedom of information. It's time to stop worrying about whether I am reaching more people and focus more on ensuring that those who already follow me get the information they expect from me. I urge you to make an informed decision before following me. I am confident that the information that I share will broaden your horizons and help you see the world from a different perspective. I don't want you to feel uncomfortable or exposed to something that you're not ready for, but I believe that it's important to challenge ourselves and expand our understanding of what is happening here. Please know that I appreciate your understanding and that I'm always here if you need someone to talk to. Many will tell you I reply to DMs and engage with people on this platform. If you have information or additional news, please send it to me, and I will investigate further for you. We all have different perspectives, and it's important to respect each other's views. Still, one thing is for sure: three-letter agencies are helping illegals into our country and paying them until they are activated for their actual purpose. I will now start to expose them and deal with what comes from the consequences.

BREAKING NEWS: I have proof that the country will endure a significant event before the end of the year. I told you yesterday who is orchestrating it and have lists of where many are being hidden. I also have information and video proof that outside networks are setting up to take control of our country and its citizens.

🎙️Introducing my new show: Free The Money with Bri Teresi, a place where anyone, whether you’re brand new to crypto or already deep in it, can learn from experts and discover tools that lead to true financial freedom. I sat down with Aaron Day to break down the growing threat of CBDCs and the rise of the technocratic agenda. We dive into privacy coins, decentralized stablecoins like Freedom Dollar , the challenges facing privacy-focused developers, and the practical steps everyday people can take to reclaim their financial freedom.

CHAMATH: STAYING IN CALIFORNIA (DESPITE THE TAXES) “It’s given me everything, so I will not leave and I will keep building companies there and hiring people there. And if there’s taxes that I have to pay, I’ll pay these taxes. But I just think that at some point, we’re better off addressing the core issue of why people believe this form of governance actually makes sense. Is it because they actually think it’s better, or is it that they’re just angry about a bunch of other things? And I think it’s mostly the latter, so we should fix that because there is no sane human being that could look at any of this information and think that we are well run. We are completely, completely out of our mind… You know, there is a period where I definitely thought about [leaving California] and I went around. I looked at different places and I thought: ‘Wait a minute, California is incredible, Palo Alto is incredible, it’s given me everything.’ And I just said: ‘Okay, mentally here’s the number and just allocate it and just let’s move on with our lives and get back to building things that I think are important.’ The reason why people are angry, it’s the same reason they were angry in 1890, it’s the same reason they were angry in Europe in 1930 at the beginning, it’s the same reason after 2008, we’ve had all of this pushback, it’s the same reason. So at some point, we should just fix the core problem that everybody is shouting about, as opposed to allowing these other people to pervert the frustration they have into these dumb ideas and programs that are always about, give me more money and I will solve your problems. It just doesn’t work… The core problem is there is a large number of people that look and believe that the latter has been pulled up above them. Why do they believe that right now? I think very specifically technology has had this profoundly positive impact but very, very few of us participated in it. In the way that we all think that we’ve made it better for everybody, looking at Instagram reels does not make your life better. That’s not true. Being able to have a functional search is useful, but it doesn’t necessarily make your life better. So we have to answer the question, how does this economically benefit more people?” Chamath Palihapitiya via Squawk Box Andrew Ross Sorkin Joe Kernen

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump pushes back on Florida removing all vaccine mandates, including for schoolchildren. He says some vaccines are a must. "I think we have to be careful. You have some vaccines that are so amazing. The Polio vaccine I think is amazing. A lot of people think that COVID [vax] is amazing. You know, there are many people that believe strongly in that." "But you have some vaccines that are so incredible. And I think you have to be very careful when you say that some people don't have to be vaccinated. It's a very tough position." "Initially, I heard about it yesterday. And it's a tough stance. You have vaccines that work. Just pure and simple, they work. They're not controversial at all. And I think those vaccines should be used otherwise some people are going to catch it and they endanger other people. And when you don't have controversy at all, people should take it."
