Instagram Threads is the new Twitter/Mastodon/Bluesky alternative that just hit the worldβ€”unfortunately with several issues. From the timeline, to privacy concerns, to its ActivityPub integration, and more! Here are the several issues behind this Facebook/Meta product that I think should be considered before you open an account.

Teslas are some of the most high-tech electric vehicles on the road, but are their autopilot, full self driving, data collection, autonomy, cybersecurity, privacy, and constant internet access a danger for its users and other on the road?

This video will explore the Model 3, Model S, and Model X cars and their previous history to explore not only their current track record (key fob hack, keyless entry, autopilot hack, data spoofing, stolen cars, etc...but what you as an end user can do...such as opting out of over-the-air (OTA) functions by emailing [email protected], disabling ingrained car data collection, utilizing sentry mode, and the several other steps outlined in the video.

Share this video to make an impact! Tesla needs to make some big improvements if they hope to be a safe and private vehicle.

Eyes in the Sky Part 1 dives into the introduction of WAMI/WAAS air surveillance technology and its origins. This includes the Predator, ARGUS, Constant Hawk, Angel Fire, Gorgon Stare, and the different organizations who influence them--such as the US Air Force, DARPA, NSA, and many other government organizations that created this technology during Afghanistan and Iraq wars. These constant eyes are a real, dystopian nightmare for user privacy.

As for the future, community readings are not something that will be continued on the channel.

These past several months have caused an influx of allegations towards VPN companies such as NordVPN, ProtonVPN, Cyberghost, IPVanish, HolaVPN, and Private Internet Access (PIA). What is true, what is false, what can be trusted?

Many of these rumors revolve around Tesonet and data collection related to several VPN companies, including but not limited to: Logging (No logs) policies, jurisdiction issues (United States, Panama, Lithuania, Romania, Germany), corporate issues, security problems, and much much more which can impact the privacy, security, and anonymity of a VPN service.

PS. Yes, I messed up shutter speed settings, this is what the "Low FPS" effect is caused by.

Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) What is it? Why do people use it? What's the movement about? In this video, we're going to explore some of the reasons to switch to free and open source software--outside of the obvious security, privacy, and cost benefits.

This video/guide will cover data ownership, community, and freedom from a central company or entity. These are all strong ideas of the FOSS movement; give the USER the control, not proprietary software from Apple, Google, or Microsoft. FOSS will also prevent security exploits by publicly allowing thousands of eyes to review the code, and people can check for improper data collection and/or backdoors.
