Grab a Notebook... You'll need it.

We've never been safe online. Our digital identities have been compromised multiple times while big tech companies harvest our behavioral data to predict our responses and sell targeted advertising.

• Government agencies like NSA or GCHQ aren't typically monitoring average citizens
• The real collectors of your data are tech companies like Google, Meta, and Microsoft
• These companies track "personally identifiable behavior" rather than just personal information
• Americans' identities have been stolen at least three times on average
• Stolen data gets sold in criminal marketplaces, often resulting in fraudulent charges
• When suspicious charges appear, don't automatically request new cards—verify with your bank instead
• Secure messaging apps like Signal and Telegram offer reasonable protection for communications
• The concept of "free speech" online remains complex and context-dependent
• Blockchain technology, while innovative, has serious energy consumption and scalability issues
• Critical thinking is essential—verify information from multiple sources before believing it
• The digital world requires a new mantra: "Trust nothing. Verify at least twice"
