NBTV: Your Money, Your Data, Your Life

https://youtu.be/Fshsk8MCAf4https://odysee.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/Samourai:eWARNING: This video contains flashing lights and visual effects that may trigger seizures for people with photosensitive epilepsy. Viewer discretion is advised.You might think privacy is optional. Something you can worry about later. But right now there is a major war against privacy being waged. If governments can arrest the people who build privacy tools, then when the day finally comes where you might need them, those tools will not exist anymore.I had the pleasure and heartache of interviewing Keonne Rodriguez, co-founder of Samourai Wallet, an open-source, non-custodial privacy wallet, who goes to prison this week because of the privacy tool he created. The whole case against him was based on the idea that privacy itself is criminal. This is his story.00:00 A Chilling Conversation00:35 The War on Privacy01:35 The Privacy Developer14:45 The Privacy Wallet20:08 The Arrest24:12 The Charges38:24 The Judge40:43 The Deal47:12 The Final Knife Twist51:28 The War on Privacy Developers56:04 How We Win the WarIf you care about a future where privacy is still possible, you need to start paying attention now, because Keonne isn't the only privacy developer being targeted. This is happening all over the world, and we need to stand up for the people building the tools that protect us all.Extra special thanks to Keonne Rodriguez for spending precious moments of his remaining freedom to give this interview.

Many people don't actually think to do this, because as long as everything is working, why spend the hassle turning everything off and on again? But if you care about security, privacy, and a device that behaves, you should reboot more often. This is a short guide on why regular reboots are worth it, and how often to do them.00:00 “Its been 84 years…”00:32 Disrupt Malware01:46 Clear Background Junk02:21 Security Updates05:38 Strongest Protection07:36 Privacy09:18 How Often to Reboot11:20 Not a Silver BulletRebooting won't remove persistent threats or root-level implants; however, regularly rebooting your devices IS helpful for improving your security, privacy, and device stability -- and it's incredibly easy!Link to our phone privacy series playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLt3zZ-N423gXV-0pdxnRn-nw0WzVKh4NY&si=uKWWzmkq2ZrqgFv9Brought to you by NBTV team members: Lee, Derek Porter, Will Sandoval and Naomi Brockwell.NBTV is a project of the Ludlow Institute, a 501c3 non profit whose mission is to advance freedom through technology.To support NBTV, visit:https://LudlowInstitute.org/donate(As a 501(c)(3) non profit, all donations are tax-deductible in the USA as permitted by law.)Visit our shop!https://Shop.NBTV.mediaOur eBook "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/Xr9l6xSrM28Platforms have one overriding goal: to keep us online as long as possible. And they’ve learned that nothing hooks us like outrage. But here's something many people don't realize: privacy and surveillance have everything to do with it. In this video I want to explore how surveillance is the key to polarization and how, ultimately, it's the engine that makes platform-driven polarization work.00:00 We’re More Polarized Than Ever00:27 Outrage02:08 Manipulation08:47 Targeting vs Filter Bubbles10:05 What We Should DoPrivacy is our ally in this fight. The less companies and governments know about us, the harder it is for them to manipulate us. Privacy protects our autonomy in the digital age. We don't need to be led by the mob around us and be a tool in their propaganda war. It's time to reclaim our autonomy.Brought to you by NBTV team members: Lee, Derek Porter, Will Sandoval and Naomi Brockwell.NBTV is a project of the Ludlow Institute, a 501c3 non profit whose mission is to advance freedom through technology.To support NBTV, visit:https://LudlowInstitute.org/donate(As a 501(c)(3) non profit, all donations are tax-deductible in the USA as permitted by law.)Visit our shop!https://Shop.NBTV.mediaOur eBook "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/1DwOQwRn8_Yhttps://odysee.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/KYC:9A huge portion of the digital world now requires mandatory ID checks.New surveillance laws such as the UK’s Online Safety Act, the EU’s Chat Control proposal, and a wave of US state-level KYC mandates have transformed the internet from an open network into a system of checkpoints and control.In this video, we expose the coordinated attack on privacy happening around the world. We trace how we got here, how platforms were pressured into compliance, and why this wave of regulation is unlike anything we have seen before.00:00 SHOW YOUR PAPERS01:43 UK’s Online Safety Act03:06 A Global Pattern06:11 How Did We Get Here?07:49 What Now?14:05 The SolutionThis landslide of lost freedoms has happened in mere weeks.

https://youtu.be/1PeAfNBNARIhttps://odysee.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/Doctor-privacy:4Why doesn’t your doctor’s office feel like a safe place anymore?Most people assume their medical conversations are private. But in the U.S., the moment your doctor enters something into your Electronic Health Record (EHR), it can be legally shared with over 2.2 million entities—often without your knowledge or consent.Did you know there are financial incentives for providers to collect as much data as possible? That’s why they often document details that have nothing to do with your care that day. And if you ask your doctor not to include something in your record? You’ll likely be treated as the difficult one—for simply wanting privacy.Because privacy is no longer the default. The default is feeding your most sensitive information into an opaque system designed to share it with a vast, invisible network of third parties.In this short video, I share a real story from one of our NBTV members who tried to protect her privacy—and was overruled. It’s a revealing look at how medical data is handled, and how little control patients actually have.If you’ve ever felt uneasy during a checkup, this might explain why.00:00 The Reason For This Video00:41 What Most People Do Not Know01:50 Her Doctor DID WHAT02:38 Once Data Leaves Your Hands03:36 Healthcare Systems Are Prime Targets For Hackers05:10 What Should Happen Instead06:22 What We Can Do07:39 YOU GUESSED THE TSHIRT RIGHT! You should be able to go to the doctor and share what’s relevant without wondering who’s going to have access to that information later. The exam room should feel safe, but right now, it doesn’t.
