Do you really know? [SCREEN FREE WEEK] What is CryptoParty?
From 2nd to 8th May 2022, it's time to unplug for the annual Screen Free Week celebration. All around the world, people are encouraged to limit their screen time and turn their devices off in favour of other activities. Do You Really Know is rerunning a series of episodes dedicated to the digital world and its impact on our lives.
What is CryptoParty?
The internet has become a massive part of our daily lives. But the space is also heavily monitored by tech giants for commercial purposes and by the authorities for political purposes.
Email addresses, geolocations, online purchases, photos, friends’ contact details… our personal data is a real gold mine for Big Tech. It’s become a lucrative business that raises privacy concerns and tampers with our lifestyles and consumption patterns.
Can you tell me more? Let’s cut to the chase: how can we protect our data online? Does the movement have branches in other parts of the world? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
