What Your Photos Reveal!
https://youtu.be/VaUsJvUMUgEhttps://open.lbry.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/OSINT-photos:8Every 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.00:00 Every Pic You Post Spills Secrets01:11 OSINT: Breadcrumbs of your digital life02:22 Finding people's EXACT location from videos02:54 Tools to track people05:45 Tips to Protect Yourself When Posting09:23 Beware of the Culture of Oversharing09:55 ConclusionThe practice of using OSINT to piece together our online trail is incredibly powerful, and can lead curious minds right to our digital doorsteps.Special Thanks to Jose Monkey for his delightful expertise and contribution to this piece!You can find his channels here:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOZnlN6M4FVIm0_fbrEjUYQhttps://www.tiktok.com/@the_josemonkeyHow to remove metadata from photos:https://youtu.be/OSln3MliFyABrought to you by NBTV team members: Lee Rennie, Cube Boy, Sam Ettaro, Will Sandoval and Naomi BrockwellTo support NBTV, visit https://www.nbtv.media/support(tax-deductible in the US)NBTV's new eBook out now!Beginner's Introduction To Privacy - https://amzn.to/3WDSfkuBeware of scammers, I will never give you a phone number or reach out to you with investment advice.

The TRUTH about Bank Privacy
https://youtu.be/C0CyuDEuLsEhttps://open.lbry.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/Financial-surveillance:eFinancial 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 Illusion02:14 Pre-197003:23 Bank Secrecy Act08:02 Annunzio-Wylie AML Act10:38 Patriot Act12:51 $600 Rule16:17 The Future Ahead18:24 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.

A World Without Privacy
https://youtu.be/0RhCrb8OCjwhttps://open.lbry.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/Impact-of-surveillance:bThe 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.00:00 1984 vs Reality05:36 Current State of Privacy10:43 Surveillance & The Risk To Freedom18:52 Psychological Impact of Pervasive Surveillance23:37 Recap So Far24:14 What Can We Do33:45 Make Privacy a Human Right35:45 Q&A - Voluntary Surrender of Data39:52 Q&A - “I Have Nothing To Hide”43:45 Q&A - Living up to the title “Private Citizen”44:24 Q&A - Data Hoarding Liability46:45 Q&A - SnapChat49:18 Q&A - How to Change Work Privacy Culture51:18 Q&A - Staying Private in a Cashless SocietyBrought to you by NBTV members: Will Sandoval, Cube Boy, and Naomi BrockwellSpecial thanks to Cactus Con for having me, and helping spread awareness about the importance of privacy!To support NBTV, visit https://www.nbtv.media/support(tax-deductible in the US)NBTV's new eBook out now!Beginner's Introduction To Privacy - https://amzn.to/3WDSfkuBeware of scammers, I will never give you a phone number or reach out to you with investment advice.

Stop Your Programs Reporting Your Activity with Little Snitch
https://youtu.be/_0EiqiPuR4Qhttps://open.lbry.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/Little-Snitch:7Our 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.00:00 Your Computer’s SECRET WHISPERS01:39 Data Leaving Your Computer04:02 Little Snitch Walkthrough10:13 Bazzell’s Settings10:35 A Note About Alerts and Rules11:48 ConclusionUsing 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-updateLittle Snitch can be found here: obdev.atThere is a similar product that apparently doesn't have the same granular functionality but is free called Lulu.

Decentralized Storage

Decentralized Storage
https://youtu.be/rOtMGJVp2MUhttps://open.lbry.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/decentralized-storage:6We 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 Storage02:11 The Move Towards Centralized Storage04:13 Risks of Data Centralization07:40 Decentralized Storage Options10:27 The DJ and the War Crimes11:44 Conclusion13:19 WTFWe 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.Special Thanks to Adam Rose and Matt Hamilton for lending their time and expertise!Brought to you by NBTV team members: Lee Rennie, Cube Boy, Sam Ettaro, Will Sandoval and Naomi BrockwellTo support NBTV, visit https://www.nbtv.media/support(tax-deductible in the US)NBTV's new eBook out now!Beginner's Introduction To Privacy - https://amzn.to/3WDSfkuBeware of scammers, I will never give you a phone number or reach out to you with investment advice.

https://youtu.be/RyirQOCUUK8https://open.lbry.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/Calyx:7Your phone is more than just a communication tool; it’s a powerful tracking device, and the SIM card inside is a key reason why.

THIS is why privacy is CRUCIAL
https://youtu.be/eR7D6Fx0fTQhttps://odysee.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/Privacy-in-the-Digital-Age:1Many 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 Intro00:33 Historical Losses of Privacy01:40 Privacy Loss Happening Right Now03:11 Why Protecting Privacy NOW is Essential05:46 People Become Targets Everyday06:51 Nefarious Truth About Data Collection08:40 The Current False Narrative on Privacy09:33 What’s at Stake?10:12 What You Can Do Right Now10:41 ConclusionThe erosion of privacy is not inevitable.

But the information provided by data brokers isn’t always correct. This is a problem because it's often heavily relied on by law enforcement as evidence, without being independently verified.

Telegram Isn't As Private As You Think
https://youtu.be/rtRQKQkvUfEhttps://open.lbry.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/Telegram:68Telegram advertises itself as a private messaging app, and has attracted over 800 million users. But Telegram is one of the last apps I'd recommend if you're looking for private communication.In this video we explain how encryption actually works on Telegram: how it's not possible to end-to-end encrypt group chats, and how direct messages are not private by default.
