The UK just confirmed it's doubling down on the under-16 social media ban, and VPN restrictions might be next. Meanwhile, 60% of Americans say they support social media bans for minors, and almost none of them have been told what age verification actually costs: uploading your ID to reach the same platforms that never changed. In this video I break down the UK's VPN restriction proposal, why age verification and online age gates always expand beyond kids, what Australia's under-16 ban actually accomplished, and why banning users instead of fixing exploitative platform design protects nobody.🔗 SOURCES & LINKS• Proton VPN Kickback Link: https://go.getproton.me/SH12P• Proton VPN: https://protonvpn.com/🔎 RELATED VIDEOShttps://youtu.be/i_B3BuRb3eQhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cuLdd07P1II🧡 SUPPORT TECHLORE• Become a Techlorian: https://techlore.tech/support/#/portal/signup• All Support Methods: https://techlore.tech/support/🔐 MORE FROM TECHLORE• Homepage & Newsletter: https://techlore.tech/• Our Course, Go Incognito: https://techlore.tech/go-incognito-course/• Our Recommended Tools: https://tools.techlore.tech/• Take Our SPA Quiz: https://quiz.techlore.tech/• Learn more on our SPA Wiki: https://wiki.techlore.tech/• VPN Finder: https://vpn.techlore.tech/⏱️ TIMESTAMPS00:00 THE FIGHT CONTINUES00:30 THE UK TEASING VPN RESTRICTIONS03:30 MAJORITY OF US ADULTS SUPPORT THESE BANS06:32 THE REAL (IGNORED) ISSUES THAT NEED SOLVING#VPNBan #uk #usa...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5ScjMGfIUU

In this interview, Henry sits down with John Ozbay, founder and CEO of Cryptee, to talk through why: preventing CSAM, why client-side scanning doesn't work, how Cryptee's solution was designed to raise the barrier to mass spread without compromising encryption, and the broader philosophical question of where developer liability ends and moral responsibility begins.Please engage in the comments with extra care; this is a sensitive topic, and some viewers may have personal experience with the issues discussed.🔗 SOURCES & LINKS• Cryptee: https://crypt.ee• Stop Chat Control: https://stopchatcontrol.eu• Open Web Advocacy: https://open-web-advocacy.org• EDRI: https://edri.org🔎 RELATED VIDEOShttps://youtu.be/5iKvQk7drd4https://youtu.be/xE-YXAnOTeQ🧡 SUPPORT TECHLORE• Become a Techlorian: https://techlore.tech/support/#/portal/signup• All Support Methods: https://techlore.tech/support/🔐 MORE FROM TECHLORE• Homepage & Newsletter: https://techlore.tech/• Our Course, Go Incognito: https://techlore.tech/go-incognito-course/• Our Recommended Tools: https://tools.techlore.tech/• Take Our SPA Quiz: https://quiz.techlore.tech/• Learn more on our SPA Wiki: https://wiki.techlore.tech/• VPN Finder: https://vpn.techlore.tech/⏱️ TIMESTAMPS00:00:00 INTRO00:04:08 E2EE SHARING HESITATIONS00:14:09 HOW IS BIG TECH HANDLING THIS?00:16:24 LOCAL SCANNING00:19:27 HOW ARE CHAT APPS HANDLING THIS?00:21:24 E2EE BACKUPS00:22:40 HOW MUCH IS THIS CONSIDERED?00:25:38 CRYPTEE'S SOLUTION00:42:09 THREAT MODELING00:48:18 MEGA'S APPROACH00:53:16 LIABILITY VS.

Attackers were taking over Instagram accounts by matching a target's region with a VPN, starting a password reset, and simply asking Meta's AI support chatbot to change the account's email...that was the entire attack.

Bus Patrol installed AI cameras in tens of thousands of US school buses to catch drivers passing stopped buses, and now those cameras are being turned into automatic license plate readers that log every vehicle they drive past and feed the data to law enforcement.

Most apps claiming to be "private and secure" are using language that sounds meaningful but commits to almost nothing. I broke this down after watching a Shark Tank segment on Qeepsake, a baby journal app that calls itself "absolutely private and secure" because it has an SSL certificate.

Law enforcement needs a warrant to walk into your house, but they can pull years of your emails, location data, and private messages without one. @NaomiBrockwellTV breaks down how a 1970s case about how a telephone booth (and the "third party doctrine" the courts built on top of it) became the legal foundation for modern digital surveillance, and how it carries over poorly into big tech companies like Google. Plus: explaining "bailment" as a better model for the digital age.This is a clip from our full interview with @NaomiBrockwellTV Watch the complete conversation here: https://youtu.be/0_hlkmpw1sk🧡 SUPPORT TECHLORE• Become a Techlorian: https://techlore.tech/support/#/portal/signup• All Support Methods: https://techlore.tech/support/🔐 MORE FROM TECHLORE• Homepage & Newsletter: https://techlore.tech• Our Course, Go Incognito: https://techlore.tech/go-incognito-course/• Privacy Tools: https://privacytools.techlore.tech/• VPN Comparison Chart: https://vpn.techlore.tech/#googleprivacy #privacy #naomi...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-7SXjk09uU

Canada's Bill C-22 is being sold as "encryption neutral" lawful access legislation, but Signal's already threatened to pull out of the country over it, and Apple and Meta are publicly opposed. Here's what the bill actually does and why it's a problem even if you don't live in Canada, and why setting this precedent now could leak into encryption fights worldwide. End-to-end encrypted messaging is the closest thing the digital world has to a private conversation in your living room. This bill puts a hole in the wall.This is a clip from our Surveillance Report podcast, watch the complete episode here: https://youtu.be/uDrsXsx0i00🧡 SUPPORT TECHLORE• Become a Techlorian: https://techlore.tech/support/#/portal/signup• All Support Methods: https://techlore.tech/support/🔐 MORE FROM TECHLORE• Homepage & Newsletter: https://techlore.tech• Our Course, Go Incognito: https://techlore.tech/go-incognito-course/• Privacy Tools: https://privacytools.techlore.tech/• VPN Comparison Chart: https://vpn.techlore.tech/#signal #encryption #canada...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dB5-XC3wEc

"Contact your reps" sounds like wishful thinking, until you understand how laws actually get passed. @NaomiBrockwellTV explains the two ways politicians get reelected (campaign donations from lobbyists, and constituents who'll punish them at the ballot box), why 10 calls is genuinely enough to get a rep briefed on an issue, and why the political fight matters even if you think tech is what will ultimately save technology.This is a clip from our full interview with @NaomiBrockwellTV Watch the complete conversation here: https://youtu.be/0_hlkmpw1sk🧡 SUPPORT TECHLORE• Become a Techlorian: https://techlore.tech/support/#/portal/signup• All Support Methods: https://techlore.tech/support/🔐 MORE FROM TECHLORE• Homepage & Newsletter: https://techlore.tech• Our Course, Go Incognito: https://techlore.tech/go-incognito-course/• Privacy Tools: https://privacytools.techlore.tech/• VPN Comparison Chart: https://vpn.techlore.tech/#politics #privacy #naomi...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VyUGW56MCNQ

Building privacy tools used to be neutral technology, now developers are being arrested for it. @NaomiBrockwellTV breaks down the Samourai Wallet case, the ongoing Roman Storm / Tornado Cash fight, and why privacy can't be won on the tech front alone.

Decentralized tech promises freedom from gatekeepers, but if you don't know how to use it privately, individuals can still be targeted even when the system itself can't be shut down. @NaomiBrockwellTV explains why pseudonymity was never the same as privacy, how Bitcoin's "just don't link your real-world identity" advice was always flawed, and what the Web3 world is finally starting to wake up to.Watch the full interview: https://youtu.be/0_hlkmpw1sk🧡 SUPPORT TECHLORE• Become a Techlorian: https://techlore.tech/support/#/portal/signup• All Support Methods: https://techlore.tech/support/🔐 MORE FROM TECHLORE• Homepage & Newsletter: https://techlore.tech• Our Course, Go Incognito: https://techlore.tech/go-incognito-course/• Privacy Tools: https://privacytools.techlore.tech/• VPN Comparison Chart: https://vpn.techlore.tech/#decentralized #privacy #techlore...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WY2EGAhQd3g

The federal government doesn't need a warrant to buy your location data, your financial records, or your private information from data brokers. The Surveillance Accountability Act wants to change that. In this Techlore Talks interview, Henry sits down with Naomi Brockwell, host of NBTV and president/founder of The Ludlow Institute. They discuss the bill, Naomi's three-pillar approach to fighting the surveillance state, why decentralization doesn't automatically provide privacy, and what you can actually do right now.🔗 SOURCES & LINKS• Surveillance Accountability Act: https://surveillanceaccountability.com• Contact your rep (script included): https://surveillanceaccountability.com/support• Naomi Brockwell TV: https://nbtv.media• Naomi's 501(c)(3): https://www.ludlowinstitute.org🔎 RELATED VIDEOShttps://youtu.be/G_meB00Vdhwhttps://youtu.be/5iKvQk7drd4🧡 SUPPORT TECHLORE• Become a Techlorian: https://techlore.tech/support/#/portal/signup• All Support Methods: https://techlore.tech/support/🔐 MORE FROM TECHLORE• Homepage & Newsletter: https://techlore.tech• Our Course, Go Incognito: https://techlore.tech/go-incognito-course/• Privacy Tools: https://privacytools.techlore.tech/• VPN Comparison Chart: https://vpn.techlore.tech/⏱️ TIMESTAMPS00:00 INTRO02:02 EVOLUTION OF PRIVACY CONTENT03:10 NAOMI'S BACKGROUND06:59 DECENTRALIZATION + PRIVACY10:24 AREAS OF FOCUS11:47 DEVELOPERS BEING ARRESTED16:17 STAYING OPTIMISTIC23:12 NAOMI'S BILL28:38 WHAT ARE THE CONCERNS?34:59 PHYSICAL VS.
