In this episode of the Cyber Uncut podcast, David Hollingworth and Daniel Croft get into a deep ethical discussion after an AI-generated deepfake of a murder victim, untangle the deeply confusing saga of the DragonForce ransomware gang's latest evolution, the Australian Human Rights Commission (AHRC) breaches itself, and the insane back and forth between the People's Republic of China and the CIA. Hollingworth and Croft begin with a robust discussion about a new AI development – using the technology to generate a deepfake video of a murder victim to be played in a US court as a victim impact statement. It's a complex issue, and the pair try to find common ground – but they agree it's a complex issue. The pair then get into the weeds, sorting out the truth regarding the DragonForce ransomware-as-a-service operation, which may or may not be taking over the RansomHub gang. Or maybe the gang is joining DragonForce? It's all very confusing, and Hollingworth and Croft do their best to get to the bottom of a very confusing situation. They also discuss more details that have emerged from behind the scenes of the LockBit gang, and an accidental data breach at the Australian Human Rights Commission. Things get wrapped up with the CIA's bizarre move to recruit Chinese spies, and the rather interesting response of some very dedicated and upset Chinese netizens. It's spycraft in the 21st century, but not as you know it. Enjoy the podcast, The Cyber Uncut team

In this episode of the General Knowledge Podcast, hosts General Maddox and Ethan Nash delve into recent political and media events in Australia, highlighting concerns about free speech, human rights, and government overreach. They discuss the shift to using the Brave browser for better communication and privacy, emphasizing the importance of independent platforms in an era of increasing digital surveillance. The conversation also touches on developments at TOTT News, where Ethan has been actively covering issues that mainstream outlets avoid. A portion of the episode is dedicated to Ethan's recent interview with Pete Evans, a controversial figure who has re-emerged in the public eye. They reflect on how their past discussions were dominated by COVID-related uncertainties, whereas now, Evans shares insights on broader topics such as personal sovereignty, skepticism of political figures like Trump and Musk, and his new book with RFK Jr.'s Children's Health Defense. The hosts note how mainstream media often distorts figures like Evans, portraying them in extreme ways while ignoring their nuanced viewpoints. The episode also critiques media manipulation and orchestrated narratives, particularly surrounding new hate speech laws. The hosts argue that many of these policies aim to preemptively criminalize dissent rather than genuinely protect marginalized groups. They reference staged media events and shifts in political allegiances, observing how public perception is often shaped by carefully controlled messaging. The rise of surveillance and “pre-crime” tactics, where individuals can be flagged for opinions rather than actions, is identified as a worrying trend in modern governance. The discussion then pivots to the Australian Human Rights Commission's recent report, which criticizes the government's handling of COVID-19. Ethan and General Maddox highlight how draconian restrictions violated fundamental rights, with citizens unable to visit loved ones or move freely. They question why institutions like the Human Rights Commission remained silent during the crisis but are now releasing reports acknowledging past mistakes. This leads to broader concerns about whether such reports will result in meaningful policy changes or simply serve as retrospective damage control. Closing out the episode, the hosts encourage listeners to stay informed, challenge mainstream narratives, and support independent media. They express concern about the road to 2030, noting increasing government control over digital spaces, financial systems, and personal freedoms. Despite the challenges, they remain committed to providing alternative perspectives and exposing agendas that often go unnoticed by the general public.

Claire Fox talks to Sall Grover and Katherine Deves about their fight in Australia to reassert in law that a woman is an adult human female. Sall Grover is the founder of the female-only app, Giggle for Girls and Katherine Deves is one of her legal team. Both have been visiting the UK from Australia to get support for their appeal of an important test-case decision on the definition of ‘woman', which Sall lost last year. It all began when then 54-year-old biological male Roxanne Tickle from New South Wales, who identifies as a woman, complained to the Australian Human Rights Commission when moderators withdrew his access to Giggle for Girls, because - well, to state the obvious - the app is exclusively for women. However, when the subsequent case (known as Tickle v Giggle) was tried at the Federal Court, Justice Robert Bromwich concluded that, according to Australian law, sex is ‘changeable and not necessarily binary'. The ruling effectively eradicated the category of sex in law. The decision set a dangerous legal precedent with international implications, summed up by Jo Bartosch's headline at the time: ‘Australia has abolished womanhood'.  They talk about the case, the pros and cons of facial recognition (which the app used to determine who was a woman and who wasn't), lawfare, the #MeToo movement and how human rights NGOs have become enmeshed in trans ideology. They also discuss the real-world impact of this trend for the likes of Scottish nurse Sandie Peggie, who was suspended from Victoria Hospital in Kirkcaldy, Fife, in January 2024 after she objected to Dr ‘Beth' Upton (Theodore Upton) - who identifies as a woman but is a biological male - using the female staff changing facilities.

Wildfires in LA? Clearly, DEI's to blame! Companies like Meta and Walmart are proudly cutting back their Diversity, Equity & Inclusion programs. Just as DEI continues to take the blame for everything from a bridge collapse in Baltimore to a NZ Navy ship accident and now this week the catastrophic fires in Los Angeles. Today, we speak with two guests to outline what's going on, what this could mean for Australia, and just how damaging the rhetoric about DEI is to those who already face additional challenges in their careers. Prabha Nandagopal is a human rights and discrimination lawyer who recently established Elevat Consulting Partners. She outlines the issue and urges leaders to consider the evidence regarding diversity and inclusion practices. Jemi Jeng is an entrepreneur (founder of Penny) and also works int he NSW public sector. She shares a personal take on the damage this rhetoric about D&I programs can do, and the casse for inclusive practices to better tap the full potential of the workforce. More on our guests Prabha Nandagopal has been involved in eliminating sexual harm, sexual harassment and systemic discrimination in Australia for many years, including with the development of the positive duty to eliminate sexual harassment and sex discrimination from inception to implementation. In 2020, she was senior legal advisor to the Respect@Work National Inquiry and helped shape the positive duty regulatory scheme. She also led the development of the Australian Human Rights Commission's new positive duty guidance material and established the Commission's positive duty compliance and enforcement team.She founded Elevate Consulting Partners in 2022 to support the work of organisations committed to positive change.

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights affirms that, "All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights." It is an affirmation as well as a promise made by many countries via the ratification of a number of Human Rights treaties. Australia is one of the countries that has made the 'promise' to uphold those treaties. However Australia has not fully incorporated these treaties into its own domestic laws through a comprehensive national human rights act, which has been a point of ongoing confusion, contention, debate and advocacy for some time. This has tested many people in leadership positions time and again, shedding light, not always positive, on the many fraught decisions and uncertain paths that need to be explored if the fundamental principles of Human Rights are to have any meaning or value in our society. To unpack what all this means, and to explain the purpose and  future of Human Rights in Australia, Paul & KG had the privilege and absolute pleasure of sitting down with Emeritus Professor Rosalind Croucher who, at the time of recording this conversation, is the President of the Australian Human Rights Commission. We think you will find this conversation as entertaining, informative and inspirational as KG & Paul did. And of course, it was well-served by a most unconventional, yet delicious, wine from Gilbert Family Wines, in Mudgee, NSW. The wine is a 2022, Pétillant-Naturel Rosé.

I often say being in the room with other leaders catapulted my growth. Spending time with Tasneem will do that for anyone. Tasneem was the inaugural 2021 Ambassador for Women of Colour, was awarded an OAM (Order of Australia Medal) in 2020 and has been named an Anti-Racism Champion by the Australian Human Rights Commission. Tasneem also has a Board Chairing role for the Australian Muslim Women's Centre for Human Rights. Words are powerful, how you say them makes an even bigger impact. -----------------------   Craving inspiration?

In this part of the interview on Rights Rorts and Rants on 31 May Fran Dyson discusses with Alana Lentin her views on local reactions to the War in Palestine in Sydney and nationally. Alana raises the decision announced in May 2024 by the Australian Human Rights Commission to lead an anti-racism study into universities with an emphasis on anti-semitism. Listeners are urged to be vigilant about what this research throws up. The need to protect university students of Arabic background in Western Sydney from the ramifications of the genocide on them and recognise the destruction of schools and education in Gaza are also raised in the interview's conclusion. For follow-up reading Alana quotes American scholar Ruth Wilson Gilmore.

In this episode I discuss in detail these strategies:UpskillingNetworkingHighlighting transferable skills Addressing negative stereotypesTo overcome ageism it requires a collective effort from employers, employees, and society as a whole. I'd like to ask you: How are you helping to promote a culture of inclusivity and respect for all generations? What else can we do to create a more equitable and age-diverse workplace? Let's keep the conversation going and I'd love you to send me a message on LinkedIn or share a post of you in action showing your energy and enthusiasm regardless of age and tag me so I know!Check out my CAREER SUCCESS Program Colleen Heidemann in action  wearing a t-shirt with the slogan: OLD IS THE NEW BLACK!--Join the 12-Week Career Success Program before 17th March 2023 & get a BONUS FREE 1-on-1 30-minute Coaching Session with Jane Jackson via Zoom!The 12-Week Career Success Program includes 2x 60-minute Group Coaching Calls every month to keep you on track to reach your career goals PLUS a wealth of online Career Want to know what's missing in your personal Career Toolkit?

Hello beautiful people Check out the To Be Human Book List | https://amzn.to/3KCdRaX On today's podcast we have the beautiful Emma Jane. Emma is an academic based at the University of New South Wales in Sydney whose research interests are quite eclectic ranging from sex and gender, to technology facilitated violence. Her research has been presented to the Australian Human Rights Commission and Workplace Gender Equality Agency. Emma is also an author having written her most recent book, being her eleventh book, ‘Diagnosis Normal'; which shares about the combined impact of sexual abuse, mental illness and neurodivergence. What I personally love about this conversation is Emma's passion to, in her words, break the toxic silence surrounding sexual violence and mental illness; that we need to hear more unpretty stories. Emma is an academic, which traditionally can come with a set of standards, I would say in separating the academic from the person behind the academia. However it is in Emma's recent book and in this episode, that Emma courageously steps outside tradition and into the necessity of bringing together her research with her own story. Living in shame that is fuelled by silence can be terribly lonely, and it is Emma's drive to not only encourage others to share their story, but more importantly to have people to listen, to really listen, that certainly makes this episode an important element in moving forward.Please enjoy this lovely conversation with Emma.
