This Is Why We Need to Talk About CBDCs - TruthStreamMedia
Central banks and governments, at a global scale, have prepared to implement CBDCs (Central Bank Digital Currencies) with important consequences for every aspect of freedom in our lives.
Though they will introduce it to the public gradually, its capacity for total control is immense.
CBDCs will be PROGRAMMABLE. Where and how money is spent is literally built into this new currency. And they plan to use it to change how money is use. The executives that frequent the World Economic Forum and the other elite forums have said so.
And so, CBDCs will not just be money. No, not at all. CBDCs are designed as tools of a very political and ideological agenda; some of the worst policies that have been pushed in recent decades will now have the force of spending controls to “nudge” people into submission and compliance.

Privacy Companies Push Back Against EU Plot To End Online Privacy
An urgent appeal has been relayed to ministers across the #EU by a consortium of tech companies, exacting a grave warning against backing a proposed regulation focusing on child sexual abuse as a pretense to jeopardize the security integrity of internet services relying on end-to-end encryption and end privacy for all citizens.
In a open letter a total of 18 organizations – predominantly comprising providers of encrypted email and messaging services – have voiced concerns about the potential experimental regulation by the European Commission (EC), singling out the “detrimental” effects on children’s #privacy and #security and the possible dire repercussions for #cybersecurity.

Know Thy Enemy: The Taxonomies That Meta Uses to Map the Offensive Privacy Space
This talk introduces and examines privacy-inclusive taxonomies Meta has developed and uses to track privacy weaknesses, enumerate privacy adversarial TTPs, deconflict privacy and security efforts, and scale detection and remediation efforts. Taxonomies, such as #MITRE's #CVE, #CAPEC, and #ATT&CK® #frameworks, have long been used to track and understand cybersecurity weaknesses and the tactics of cyber adversaries. These taxonomies help #organizations stay abreast of trends, guide software development best practices, and pinpoint the most effective remediation and detection strategies to common #cybersecurity issues. As the field of offensive privacy matures, organizations require similar taxonomies to understand #privacy threats and align efforts across #security and privacy teams....

About Face (Recognition) | EFF
Is your face truly your own, or is it a commodity to be sold, a weapon to be used against you? A company called #Clearview AI has scraped the internet to gather (without consent) 30 billion images to support a tool that lets users identify people by picture alone. Though it’s primarily used by law enforcement, should we have to worry that the eavesdropper at the next restaurant table, or the creep who’s bothering you in the bar, or the protestor outside the abortion clinic can surreptitiously snap a pic of you, upload it, and use it to identify you, where you live and work, your social media accounts, and more?
Kashmir Hill has been writing about the intersection of #privacy and #technology for well over a decade; her book about Clearview AI’s rise and practices was published last fall. She speaks with the #EFF about how face recognition technology’s rapid evolution may have outpaced ethics and regulations, and where we might go from here.

Chat Control Must Be Stopped – Now! – Threema
This Wednesday, June 19, 2024, the #EU Council could be voting on the controversial #ChatControl bill. Should it pass, the consequences would be devastating: Under the pretext of child protection, EU citizens would no longer be able to communicate in a safe and private manner on the Internet. The European market’s location advantage would suffer a massive hit due to a substantial decrease in data security. And EU professionals like lawyers, journalists, and physicians could no longer uphold their duty to confidentiality online. All while children wouldn’t be better protected in the least bit. On the contrary, Chat Control could have a negative impact on minors in particular.

Chat Control Must Be Stopped – Now!
With its legislative proposal known as “Chat Control,” the EU Commission is trying to establish an unprecedented mass-surveillance apparatus of Orwellian proportions in the European Union. If EU citizens don’t stand up for privacy now, it may be too late.

#Liberty Cannot Exist Inside a #Panopticon
Liberty is not possible in an omnipresent surveillance Panopticon because part of being at liberty is having one's #privacy secure. USA's Fourth Amendment to the Bill of Rights is based upon this very idea. After seeing Oracle's Ellison in the WH on day two, I thought it appropriate to make this 30-min. mini doc to explain a brief history of the Panopticon and what it really is: a machine that can be used to modify the behaviors of those inside of it in any way its controllers see fit.
As EFF's Schneier said, "Too many wrongly characterize the debate as 'security versus privacy.' The real choice is liberty versus control."

Hello, my Mad Hatter friends! 🎩
Let me ask you a question: have you ever wondered how Monero's security works and whether it is as reliable as they say?🪙
In my new article, I figured this out and also explained how to further protect yourself so that your transactions remain invisible even to the most curious eyes.🛡
I describe in detail how Monero works, how resistant it is to attacks, and what measures will help you maintain your anonymity. 🔑
The article covers attacks ranging from Black Marble Flooding to Eclipse Attacks, and I also share practical tips on how to run your own node and configure Tor to increase your privacy.
I hope you will find it interesting to delve into this topic. 🧩 At the end of the article, there are links to additional materials so that you can explore this topic in more depth if you wish. ⚙️
Enjoy your tea! ☕️🩷
