I'm surprised to learn this about you, your past, and your mission. All of which makes me feel torn because I understand the message you're trying to convey. Privacy isn't just about hiding something we might be ashemed or necessarily stem from a fear of getting caught for doing something wrong, it's a civil liberty, a pursuit of freedom, a peace of mind knowing that regardless of what you do, your personal matters are yours and yours alone, whereby they remain personal. So, I understand this concept and completely agree. My only question then is one of curiosity to better understand what someone more knowledgeable than me knows that maybe I am missing, from someone who has seen more, is much more capable than me in finding information about someone, what is it that a person like that, would they have to be privy of to be so adamant about matters privacy when they themselves have not experienced the repercussions that they warn about? Although I don't always accomplish this, I'm similar to you in that I knew emails could be read and I would write them appropriately. As a matter of fact I live my life like someone is always watching, doing what I think I could be judged on. And, you make a fair point about things being taken out of context. But this is a dilemma I've struggled to understand whole-heartedly, meaning I can grasp the concept but I don't yet feel the compelling emotion to be moved to warn others about it in the way you have. Essentially, on the one hand we have a 1984 version of surveillance and security, on the other hand we have catered convenience and customized luxuries for a capitalist free market, both of which requires data about individuals to serve two different purposes. Albeit one can live without either of them, or one can benefit from both of them, aren't some of the fears you mentioned contradictory to the level of conspiracy that might hypothetically exist? GPS location and tracking precision, for instance, would pinpoint that the protestors never entered the store and stood outside it, AI technology would recognize the movement patters and distinguish it from looters who, with that same preciseness in gps tracking, would be easily identified as having entered the store. The concerns of privacy and security is a complicated debate and I don't seek a debate with you, just an understanding.
After all, as someone who immigrated from another country, one that was oppressive and totalitarian, haven't you ever wondered if those fears and paranoia stem from that former government and oppression? As in, it's easy to see how those former governments could do it and since it's what you'd expect, you would automatically assume it applies to the same democracy you escaped to and thereby live a life continually finding every single reason to further support that belief. In other words, and I'm NOT suggesting that it is, but what if throughout your career in being exposed to understanding technology so well, you found all these security concerns and predicted corporate decisions was all part of a sort of confirmation bias? And let's just say, the things that you suspect others of doing, if the tables were turned, would you see yourself doing that? If you owned a social media platfform and had the ability to read billions upon billions of conversations, is that how you would spend your time, just listening to all the conversations happening out there? It just seems to me that while you're probably right, if we were to practice a philosophy of being the change we want to see in the world, then is it better to be someone who advocates privacy, or someone who raises fear and paranoia in order to garner support for privacy.
I guess it's just a matter of approach more than anything.

You know how when you work for a big company, they always want you to use the VPN when you're not in the office?
Yeah, so you're always on the company LAN, and everything you do can be tracked and scrutinized.
Now you know why there are a bunch of -free- VPN services coming out every day. It's not free. The cost is your data. How many of you would use a VPN I setup? I'll let you on it for free. It'll keep you totally anonymous to everyone on the internet, EXCEPT ME! Right? Who falls for this garbage? Seriously? Using a VPN is like connecting to a hacker's open wifi. All your data goes through his gateway. Trust is all you have here. Your ISP is probably bound by a thousand more privacy laws if you live in a 1st world country, than home boy Joey Blowie's VPN server in the Ukraine.

I understood what Facebook was about the first day I saw it. The reason why is that I had already been designing a similar social media platform that I deleted because I realized I was creating a monster. When I saw Facebook I immediately recognized that Facebook was even worse than my project. And that is the problem I think. The only ones that truly understand what the Big Tech companies can do is either people that work in these companies or people that have been designing similar types of software or people that have been properly informed by people that has been into it.

If I was you, I'd be very careful of saying anything nice about Joe Rogan. It could seriously harm your reputation. And if you dont know what Rogan is, I suggest you do a bit of research. For a start hes a Shill, and a freemason. Hes the very LAST man that you want to associate with if you believe in privacy. By the way Rob, I love your videos and many thanks for your good advice. the very reason I give you my advice.

You are on a boat. That has a transponder. That can give your position away. All that work to not be tracked by the man and it all goes down the drain. You also show enough of your background to geolocate your position with decent accuracy. So, I have to wonder what your angle is. You teach people to hide and then potentially leak your position with a video. I do not understand what your angle is. lol.

Never trust businesses. Trust governments even less. They have shown with their actions that time and time again, any and every potential avenue of social and political control will be exploited for the worst possible end. Stalin didn't have microphones embedded into building walls to catch criminals, they were put there for detecting any hint of resistance to his grip on power.

Only God has the right too know the thoughts of any person on Earth.
Thank you Mr, Privacy Guy. Have you thought about God in the middle of all this Turmoil on Earth?

I hope you downloaded Uncle Joe's clip and can -leak- it somehow, Rob, to prove the point to Uncle Joe that he cannot hide anything, because the clip is now unavailable.

Privacy can be explained in a simple way. We close the door when we sit on the toilet, not because we have anything to hide, but because we like privacy.
