Our devices contain a treasure trove of private information. We have sensitive work documents, cherished family photos, archives of private communications. You can keep these digital files safe by using encrypted containers, which are secure digital vaults that will help keep your data private. In this video, we explain how use the free, open source encryption program VeraCrypt.

https://odysee.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/Phone-Contacts:9
The humble Contact List in our phone is a goldmine of data. Each contact is filled with the personal information like names, numbers, email addresses, home addresses, birthdays, work details and social media information. It’s the kind of information that data brokers salivate over because it allows unprecedented insight into consumer behavior, political leanings, and even potential vulnerabilities that could be exploited. The worst thing is, it's not even your information that's being taken -- When we don't protect our contacts list, it's the information that OTHERS have entrusted to us that we're sharing.
In this video I talk about Contact Lists, why you might not want to store them in your phone or share them with other apps on your device, and finally I’ll talk about more private ways to store them.
00:00 Your Phone Compromises Your Contacts
00:28 Overview
00:39 Why Contacts Lists Are Important
01:51 Who Sees Our Contact List
05:37 Private Ways To Store Contacts
06:23 Reviewing App Permissions
06:57 Third Party Contact Apps
07:53 Encrypted Contact Storage
08:43 Graphene: The Ultimate Solution
09:57 It’s Time to Take Back Control!
By disabling automatic cloud syncing, regularly reviewing and managing our apps’ contact permissions, and using privacy-focused apps and services, we can reduce the indiscriminate harvesting of our social graph. Our contacts deserve to be treated with the utmost care and respect.

We now know that the data collection in modern cars is out of control -- The question is, how does that data even leave your car? And what, if anything, can you do to stop it?
That's what we cover in this video, Part 3 of our car privacy series: SIM cards, WiFi, and OBD ports.
We also talk about how companies trick us into handing over our data, things that we can do to push back against this insane overreach that we’ve somehow normalized, and the giant legal loophole for cars that makes it super easy for law enforcement to collect your data without a warrant.

Did you know that apps on your phone can see which other apps you have installed? And that apps can talk to each other and share information, without you realizing?
In this video we show you how to stop apps communicating with each other, and look at the scoped storage and sandboxing of apps in GrapheneOS, and what it does and doesn't protect against.
00:00 Apps Can Talk to Each Other
02:18 Sandboxing and Using Scored Storage on GrapheneOS
04:58 Secondary Profiles
10:24 Google Play Services: How To Stop Their Tentacles
12:10 Setting Up 2nd Profile Tutorial
13:40 Conclusion
Secondary profiles are a great privacy tool to add to your toolbox. It's super opaque what the apps on our phones are doing, and using something like GrapheneOS really helps you reclaim your privacy by default.

Cars are no longer dumb machines -- They're smart devices with hundreds of computers bolted on top that collect information about our activities. Some car companies have even explicitly said in their privacy policies that they collect information about your sexual activity!
Given that so much information is stored in our car, what happens when we sell it? Do we just hand this sensitive information off to the next owner? And given the remote capabilities of modern cars, how do we make sure the previous owner can't still access our data when we buy a used car?
Here are steps you MUST take when you buy or sell a used car.
00:00 Cars Collect Info on Your Sex Life!

https://open.lbry.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/Adv-Data-Protection:e
Thanks to powerful marketing, privacy is something we’ve come to immediately associate with Apple. But your iCloud is probably NOT as private as you think.
Last year, Apple added E2EE for iCloud backups, with a tool called "Advanced Data Protection”. This setting means that your documents, photos, and other personal information in iCloud are kept private and out of the reach of even Apple itself.
BUT, this setting is NOT turned on by default.
Unless you have specifically turned on the setting, and set backup users or codes, everything in your iCloud can be read by Apple. And regardless of whether Advanced Data Protection is enabled, some things in the Apple ecosystem are never E2EE, and it's important to know what they are.
In this video we explain exactly what is being protected with Advanced Data Protection, how to turn it on, its limitations, and other options that you might use for your backups instead.
00:00 Your iCloud is NOT as Private as you Think
01:49 Advanced Data Protection Explained
02:37 Set Up
04:34 Limitations
05:48 Alternative Backup Options
06:52 Summary
Don’t presume that your iPhone is more private than it actually is. If you use Apple's iCloud, absolutely make sure that you have Advanced Data Protection turned on.

https://open.lbry.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/OSINT-photos:8
Every picture and video you post spills secrets about you, maybe even revealing where you live. The process of connecting all these dots of our online activities is a practice known as Open Source Intelligence, or OSINT. It's the practice of using all the information available online such as public records, reviews we write, email addresses, usernames, location check ins, and social media, to link together the breadcrumbs of someone's digital life.
Jose Monkey has 1.7 million TikTok followers, and shows us how he finds people's exact location just by using OSINT on their videos. We teach you best practices for posting photos and videos online, and how to make sure that you're not giving away more information than you intend.

Financial privacy has practically vanished over the last 50 years. Most people are in denial about it, and still believe that their relationship with their bank or their credit union is confidential -- the reality couldn’t be further from that.
In this video we walk you through the history of how financial privacy slowly disappeared, and how we built a gargantuan financial surveillance system that no one really understands the extent of.
00:00 Financial Privacy is an Illusion
02:14 Pre-1970
03:23 Bank Secrecy Act
08:02 Annunzio-Wylie AML Act
10:38 Patriot Act
12:51 $600 Rule
16:17 The Future Ahead
18:24 Is This the World We Want?
We have slowly built a gargantuan system of unchecked financial surveillance, and it’s time to question whether this is the world we want to live in. The first step is just making people aware of how far financial surveillance norms have shifted in just a few decades.

https://open.lbry.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/Impact-of-surveillance:b
The current state of privacy is bad. Surveillance today is pervasive, and the effects of this surveillance on the fabric of society is profound. We need to make sure we’re fully aware of the consequences of creating a world without privacy.
If we want to reclaim privacy in the digital age, the answer is not to throw out our devices, it’s to truly embrace technology, and leverage all the new, cutting edge privacy and encryption technologies being developed every day.
We are empowered human beings. And many of us aren't just passive enjoyers of technology -- we have a say in the direction that this technology will take, and are helping write its future. It's in our power to make sure that the future we create is the best possible timeline, not the worst.
So let’s be intentional about the kind of future we want.

https://open.lbry.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/Little-Snitch:7
Our computers constantly talk to servers across the internet without us realizing, sharing information about our activities. Most of us don't even realize how many programs are silently connecting to the internet and sharing data. It usually happens without our explicit consent.
But we can block these connections. On Mac, you can use a program called Little Snitch.
In this video we look at the data is silently transmitted from our computer through things like telemetry, and show you how to use Little Snitch to regain control over the data leaving your computer.

01:39 Data Leaving Your Computer
04:02 Little Snitch Walkthrough

11:48 Conclusion
Using a reverse firewall like Little Snitch can be very revealing about how much data is silently being transmitted from our computer. Simply becoming aware of this can help us make better decisions with the tech we use.
Our suggestions come from privacy expert Michael Bazzell, and we highly recommend you check out his site: https://inteltechniques.com/blog/2021/08/18/macos-telemetry-update
Little Snitch can be found here: obdev.at
There is a similar product that apparently doesn't have the same granular functionality but is free called Lulu. I haven't tested it though, so you're on your own there!

Photos these days usually stay in digital form. Sometimes we back them up to the cloud for safekeeping: but who is getting access to your sensitive images when you do so?
In this video we look at the built-in photo backup options on iPhone and Android, and how private they really are. We also explore more private backup solutions, and how to set them up to happen automatically so that you never have to worry about losing your precious memories ever again.
There are some really simple solutions that don’t require any technical skill.

https://open.lbry.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/decentralized-storage:6
We put a lot of trust in cloud storage providers, presuming that they’ll keep our data safe. But what if they're hacked? Or their servers go down? Or what if they decide to just kick us out of our accounts, and we lose all our emails, files, contacts, photos...
There's another big problem with centralizing all our storage on a single platform: it turns out the whole world is doing it. Most of the world's data is stored by just 3 companies: Amazon, Microsoft, and Google.
In this video we’re going to talk about how a handful of companies came to control most of the world’s data, how this could put our data in danger and make censorship easier, and we’ll explore the new world of decentralized storage, allowing control of the internet to be distributed back to individuals.
00:00 The BIG problem with Cloud Storage
02:11 The Move Towards Centralized Storage
04:13 Risks of Data Centralization
07:40 Decentralized Storage Options
10:27 The DJ and the War Crimes
11:44 Conclusion
13:19 WTF
We need to make sure that we are protecting our from loss and censorship. Decentralized storage allows us to return to the ideals of the early internet, that promised a connected world where information flows freely.

Your phone is more than just a communication tool; it’s a powerful tracking device, and the SIM card inside is a key reason why.
I don’t actually have a SIM card in any of my phones, and in this video I’ll explain the reasons why.

https://odysee.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/Privacy-in-the-Digital-Age:1
Many of us don't fully grasp the importance of privacy for a free society.
We allow total invasion of our privacy, making a bet that we and those in power will stay on good terms, so this data will never be used against us.
But as Snowden said, regimes come and go, social norms change, but that data is forever.
Privacy is not a tool for criminals, as many would have you believe. It's essential for regular people, to allow them to dissent, have independent thoughts, hold people accountable without fearing retribution.
In this video, we explore the crucial link between privacy and a free society, and why we must immediately fight to reclaim the narrative around privacy and surveillance.
00:00 Intro
00:33 Historical Losses of Privacy
01:40 Privacy Loss Happening Right Now
03:11 Why Protecting Privacy NOW is Essential
05:46 People Become Targets Everyday
06:51 Nefarious Truth About Data Collection
08:40 The Current False Narrative on Privacy
09:33 What’s at Stake?
10:12 What You Can Do Right Now
10:41 Conclusion
The erosion of privacy is not inevitable. But we must start to care, and stop normalizing surveillance.

The holidays are upon us, and it's time to ask some SERIOUS questions:
Why do we allow Santa to spy on us through the year to see if we're being good or bad?
Why do we allow him to dictate the behavior of our children??
In our final video of the year, we explore the history of Santa’s inter-generational ploy to extend his unnatural life through the collection of our data.

There are many other settings you can toggle, depending on your apps and operating system, to help decrease how much location data you reveal, and we'll go through these in another video. This can all go a long way to helping you fortify your digital life.

Your phone is your portal to the digital world, where all kinds of sensitive activity happens. It's important to make sure your phone isn't leaking all this information about you, and the operating system you use makes a huge difference. Android and iOS collect a huge amount of data from you, so in previous videos we've explained how to instal GrapheneOS instead.
In this video we dive into detail about what makes Graphene great for privacy, explain how to get started and what you need to know before you even buy your phone, and walk you through how to optimize your settings to really get the most from your device.

X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, rolled out "encrypted messages" this year!
We explain how to use it, who is eligible, but we also dive into the nitty gritty of how this encryption has been implements, and why we don't think you should trust it for anything sensitive. There are better E2EE messaging apps out there.
00:00 X introduces Encrypted Messaging
02:53 How to Send Encrypted Messages on X
03:30 Who Can Use X’s Encrypted Messages?
03:57 Should You Use X’s Encrypted Messaging?
06:13 Deep Dive: How They've Implemented It
09:54 Problems
12:34 Conclusion
X’s introduction of encrypted messaging is long overdue, and a very welcome feature: It not only brings privacy to a lot more people, but it's also a signal to the entire tech industry that privacy is important. Just be careful not to place too much trust in their encrypted messenger: For anything sensitive, we recommend using a platform with more robust privacy features.
Huge thanks for Matthew Garrett for writing this fantastic summary of the issues:
