Must Watch
Government Agencies, Mega Corporations, and Cyber Criminals Can Hear and See Everything Your Devices Can.
This short is shocking. The fact is, your data is exposed and it's time to get serious about protecting your data. One breach can be devastating.

Most people think their phone is just a phone. It isn't. It's a sensor array — microphone, camera, GPS, accelerometer, gyroscope — all of it generating data continuously, feeding it to services that turn around and sell it to whoever is willing to pay. That includes, as this video makes clear, government agencies, corporate intelligence operations, and criminal networks.
The surveillance isn't theoretical. It's operational, right now, on the device in your pocket. The question isn't whether your data is being collected. It is. The question is what you're going to do about it.
The Three Threats
Government Agencies
Federal agencies routinely purchase commercially available data to build profiles on Americans — legally, without warrants. Location data, browsing habits, communication metadata: all of it flows from app developers to data brokers to government buyers without any judicial oversight.
Mega Corporations
The business model of most free apps is your behavioral data. Your habits, preferences, schedule, and relationships are being analyzed and monetized continuously. This data also flows to advertisers, business intelligence firms, and anyone else with a checkbook.
Cyber Criminals
Every data breach exposes millions of records. The same personal data collected by corporations ends up on criminal marketplaces after breaches. Your financial information, health records, and personal communications have already been compromised in breaches you may not even know about.
What You Can Actually Do
Deleting apps helps at the margins. But the data collection built into your phone's operating system continues regardless of what's installed. The only real solution is an operating system that was built — from the ground up — to not collect your data in the first place.
