Great class last night with our first @privacysafe cohort. What did we cover? First, we did a quick intro into concepts of digital self-defense. Privacy is an ecosystem problem, so we talked about the rise of proximity tracking, and what that may mean after #COVID19

🔥 like a phoenix rising from the flames, I'm proud to announce @privacysafe Technology Foundation. We're focusing on #private & #secure remote education as well as healthcare with @gnuhealth. Sign up for classes, starting June 4 w/ Digital Self-Defense: https://privacysafe.tech

My piece about Elihu Yale the slaver and the obvious and ethical mandate to change Yale's name #CancelYale #RenameYale #BlackLivesMatter https://www.newhavenindependent.org/index.php/archives/entry/yale_must_change_its_name/

it's incredibly easy to repackage an app with a malicious payload. Scatterscam alerts you when that has happened and the app is in Google Play. This @exodus post explains how it works: #privacy #security #android https://exodus-privacy.eu.org/en/post/scam/

I see #CancelYale is a thing now. Though it began as a trolling hashtag, we need to be on the right side of history and rename, rebuild. Going further, we need to close the gap between "town and gown". The University can start by paying its dues to New Haven residents during this economic crisis. #TaxYale

@privacysafe @exodus I demonstrated basic network auditing via a VPN server, with some cool visualizations of data flows.

@privacysafe @exodus We touched on the emerging reality of ubiquitous BLE tracking and teeny-tiny Bluetooth sensors, as well as where that might converge with Google and Apple's new contact tracing stack for smartphones. https://archive.is/2YFQp

@privacysafe We took a look at the excellent work of @exodus and mobile trackers, showing the Exodify add-on in action https://github.com/FacettsOpen/exodify

@privacysafe In response to feedback and demand from grassroots orgs, we've shuffled the schedule. Next week we will have a Public "Open House" for free. Take the first step in protecting your #privacy, especially if you're joining the growing movement.

@privacysafe Tonight we start with @PrivacySafe_AI new member orientation, and there's still time to get in on the ground floor! https://privacysafe.tech

I'm back on social media after a week of reflection, activism, and being inspired. Stay tuned for updates on @privacysafe and how we hope to help the movement now changing the world. I don't do "peace and love" branding. I offer help, from my hands to yours. #BlackLivesMatter

I'll be on the SwitchedToLinux livestream at 12:30 ET today to talk about Signal and other encrypted messaging apps. #privacy #security https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFi-VI7_T3o
