Originally released in January 2020

We unpack how surveillance capitalism turns your clicks into raw material, why encryption backdoors endanger everyone, and how real cases like the Bezos hack and Clearview AI expose systemic risk. We also preview next month’s work‑life balance series and invite your takes via our voicemail line.

• consumers vs contributors in online communities
• the age of surveillance capitalism and data extraction
• why backdoors fail and humans are the weak link
• DOJ pressure on device access and iCloud backups
• Bezos phone hack, UN response, accountability gaps
• facial recognition vs underlying datasets and Clearview AI
• citywide surveillance planes and proportionality
• CCPA, GDPR, and proposed reforms to Section 215
• practical steps to reduce data leakage and risk
• setting boundaries and work‑life balance as security

I work for free. Kenny will not. Plus, I think I'm going to be sued, so we could use some scratch.

Up yours! I'm with Hegseth & Trump!
