Storing sensitive files on a normal USB drive is like writing your diary on a sticky note and leaving it in a taxi. If someone gets the drive, they get the files with no hacking required. But luckily you can use encryption to protect what's on your USB thumbdrive.

In this video I compare some great tools that make the data on your USB private from anyone who doesn't have the password.

09:36 Privacy Is About Control

Privacy isn’t about hiding. It’s about control. And encrypted storage is one of the simplest ways to take some of that control back when it comes to who can access your data. Just choose the tool that best fits your threat model.

'Privacy is impractical.'
'Concessions are necessary.'
'Be realistic.'
These views about becoming mainstream. And they're wrong. Here's why limits on privacy are never a price worth paying for adoption, no matter how reasonable the argument sounds.

11:20 Shifting Baselines
11:54 False Company Claims
12:37 Security Risks
13:39 In Closing

This debate is not about whether limiting privacy can accelerate growth. It is about whether trading long-term freedom for short-term scale is a price we should be willing to pay, and the answer is no. Because what's at stake is security, freedom, and human dignity, and the cost of losing that in society for future generations is too high.

I just recently went to a website to set up a new account, and it wouldn't let me proceed without giving them a cell number. Not a VoIP number, it demanded a real cell number, associated with a SIM. I actually don't have one, because I don't have a SIM in my phone. On top of that, there are many reasons why someone might not want to hand out their cell number to everyone.

What should someone do in a situation like this? In this video I'll explain what you can do if someone asks for your cell number, and you don't want to give it to them. We'll talk about VoIP alternatives, and different methods for keeping your data protected.

07:39 Pre-Paid SIM Tactic
08:16 Why Providers Block VoIP
10:57 The Cell to VoIP Trick
12:58 Dispense with the Formalities

Stop handing out your real cell number by default. Use the alternatives when you can. Make minimal disclosure the norm. Small changes like this reduce your exposure, and they remind companies that access to you isn’t a right. It’s something you get to choose.
