Apple is quietly downgrading Hide My Email...moving generated aliases to a new subdomain that makes it easy for apps and websites to detect and block anyone using a private email address.

End-to-end encrypted file sharing may sound simple, but for Cryptee, it took five years to ship. 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.

Meta quietly embedded unreleased facial-recognition code, internally called "nametag" onto more than 50 million phones through its Meta AI app, then deleted it the day after Wired exposed it. This week I also get into Microsoft repos weaponized a second time to push credential-stealing malware to AI users, the UK's ultimatum to scan every device (and Signal's response), the FCC's push to kill burner phones...plus the usual breaches, threats, and a stacked week of FOSS+ updates.🗺️ The open-source answer to Google Timeline is finally here!

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. It ran in the wild since at least February, compromising thousands of accounts before high-profile victims (a Barack Obama White House account, the Space Force Chief Master Sergeant) made it impossible to ignore.This is a clip from our Surveillance Report news podcast, Watch the complete episode here: https://youtu.be/xEz8mlRYWog🧡 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/#meta #instagram #AI...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12CBfLQrTek

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. Leaked internal documents show the company knew the plan was controversial (including ICE concerns) but bet that the "protect the children" framing would keep people from pushing back.This is a clip from our Surveillance Report news podcast, Watch the complete episode here: https://youtu.be/Pgo3N4WlMmc🧡 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/#schoolbus #surveillance #privacy...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRhekbtayIg

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. That's the same protection every website has. This is an industry-wide playbook.

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

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.

Google's new reCAPTCHA can require Google Play Services to pass, meaning a de-Googled phone will fail the "are you human?" check.

Utah just passed SB73, the first law in the US to take direct aim at VPNs, and it already went into effect May 6th. The law requires adult content sites to verify the age of every Utah user even if they're using a VPN (aka...everyone!) which experts say is technically impossible to comply with without verifying every person on earth.

Helium Browser has been one of the most requested first looks from the community, so here it is. Built by a two-person team, Helium is an open source Chromium-based browser that ships with uBlock Origin and provides an experience with zero bloat. Can it compete with Brave? In this video I showcase the differences and who I think Helium is (and isn't) for. A couple things worth noting: Helium also supports !bangs and vertical tabs, two features I didn't cover in this video. Neither changes my overall take, but they're worth knowing about if those matter to your workflow!🔗 SOURCES & LINKS• Our Written Breakdown: https://techlore.tech/helium-browser-review-a-truly-minimal-privacy-focused-chromium-browser/• Helium: https://helium.computer• Imput: https://imput.net🔎 RELATED VIDEOShttps://youtu.be/3i5KH0l895ohttps://youtu.be/W6cKFliWW6Q🧡 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 HELIUM BROWSER - SETTING THE SCENE01:02 INITIAL SETUP02:00 FIRST IMPRESSIONS + FEATURE OVERVIEW03:43 PERFORMANCE05:58 DESIGN07:11 BUSINESS MODELS & SUSTAINABILITY08:08 HELIUM OR BRAVE?09:40 OVERALL THOUGHTSGymnopedie No 1 by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/#HeliumBrowser #BraveBrowser #OpenSource...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zPqsIGALt7s

Most people think their passwords are safe. Most people are wrong. Henry sits down with Ryan Luibrand, Senior Product Marketing Manager at Bitwarden, to cover why open source changes the trust equation, the LastPass data breach, how KDF algorithms work, whether storing your TOTP codes in your password manager is a good idea, and more.🔗 SOURCES & LINKS• Bitwarden: https://bitwarden.com• Security White Paper: https://bitwarden.com/help/bitwarden-security-white-paper/• Compliance & Audit Reports: https://bitwarden.com/compliance/• Privacy Policy: https://bitwarden.com/privacy/• Security Readiness Kit: https://bitwarden.com/resources/bitwarden-security-readiness-kit/• HackerOne Bug Bounty: https://hackerone.com/bitwarden• GitHub: https://github.com/bitwarden🔎 RELATED VIDEOShttps://youtu.be/0bwWR9mQATYhttps://youtu.be/aIJjrDrwsIU🧡 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 INTRO00:52 RYAN'S BACKGROUND02:07 BITWARDEN ORIGINS03:09 BITWARDEN TEAM03:29 FUNDING06:18 OPEN SOURCE08:18 AUDITS10:11 FORKING11:19 INTERNAL VS.

Brave just released Brave Origin. A paid, stripped-down version of their browser with no AI, no crypto wallet, no rewards, and no telemetry. I paid $60 to test it live and compare it directly to regular Brave. Linux users get it for free! Is this a legitimate solution to a real problem, or is Brave just charging you to undo their own choices?🔗 SOURCES & LINKS• Our written breakdown: https://techlore.tech/brave-origin-review-is-the-new-60-paid-browser-worth-it/• Brave Origin landing page: https://brave.com/origin/download-nightly/• Brave Origin official documentation: https://support.brave.app/hc/en-us/articles/38561489788173-What-is-Brave-Origin🔎 RELATED VIDEOShttps://youtu.be/W6cKFliWW6Q🧡 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 BRAVE RELEASED A PAID VERSION?00:30 LET'S TRY IT OUT!03:30 MY THOUGHTS...SHOULD YOU USE THIS?#brave #bravebrowser #techlore...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3i5KH0l895o

Age verification is spreading fast...and this week the US and EU both made major moves, taking completely different approaches. We break down exactly what each one does and why both have long-term implications that go far beyond protecting kids. This one matters whether you're in the US (Parents Decide Act) or Europe with their open source + Zero Knowledge Proof approach.🔒 Sponsored by Proton — https://proton.me/bp/techloreReserve a private email before surveillance gets there first, or start fresh yourself.

Tuta just launched their encrypted cloud storage in closed beta, and I got early access. This is what I think of Tuta's full zero-knowledge workspace that Big Tech still won't build. Here's my first look, who it's actually for, and how it stacks up against competitors like Proton Drive, as well as what we can expect in the future. I'd love to hear any of your questions, I'll be following Tuta Drive's progress closely and will keep you updated as this develops!🔗 SOURCES & LINKS• Tuta Drive, Currently in Closed Beta: https://tuta.com/drive• Tuta Encryption: https://tuta.com/blog/post-quantum-cryptography• Tuta Kickback Link: https://tuta.com/?t-src=techlore• Written breakdown: https://techlore.tech/tuta-drive-first-look-the-encrypted-platform-that-does-what-google-and-apple-wont/🔎 RELATED VIDEOShttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0wgpuiIoG_ghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cn8sLpvuEKY🧡 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 INTRO00:19 PRIVATE CLOUD PREFACE01:13 TUTA DRIVE FIRST LOOK04:32 HONEST THOUGHTS05:02 WHO IS THIS FOR WHEN IT LAUNCHES?05:50 WHO SHOULD WAIT?06:46 THE BIGGER PICTURE07:23 FINAL THOUGHTS#tutadrive #tuta #encryption...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcpEwYMXYBQ

Age verification laws are spreading fast, but most coverage is either panic or dismissal, with very little clarity on what these laws say, who they apply to, or what they mean for free software. In this episode of Techlore Talks, Henry sits down with Jithendra Palepu, who has a legal background and Free Software Foundation Europe volunteer, to actually make sense of it. Age verification, age estimation, age gating, and self-declaration, why the difference matters enormously, and more. We examine what California's AB 1628 actually requires, we discuss why MidnightBSD's decision to ban California users may have backfired against the very principles it was trying to protect, and so much more. If you've had strong reactions to these laws but struggled to fully back them up, this one's for you.Note: Sorry about the video issues, our recording tool had a lot of problems, but audio is still solid 🙏🔗 SOURCES & LINKS• Free Software Foundation Europe: https://fsfe.org• FSFE — Youth Hacking for Freedom: https://fsfe.org/activities/yh4f/• Software Freedom Conservancy: https://sfconservancy.org• Keep Android Open: https://keepandroidopen.org/• Read our breakdown: https://techlore.tech/age-verification-laws-and-free-software-fsfe-interview-techlore-talks/🔎 RELATED VIDEOShttps://youtu.be/uzmR4nt1rpEhttps://youtu.be/jP-kqEHirTMhttps://youtu.be/QiR7aQs3JTU🧡 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 INTRO02:43 DEFINING AGE VERIFICATION05:15 THE REAL CONCERN09:59 SELF-DECLARATION13:14 SERVICE VS.

Mozilla just shipped a free VPN directly into Firefox. No app, no subscription, just 50GB of IP protection per month built into the browser.
