In this eye-opening episode, Lee exposes the alarming rollout of the European Union's new biometric entry-exit system — a digital checkpoint that captures citizens' fingerprints and facial scans every time they cross a border. What's being sold as “security and convenience” is fast becoming a digital prison, with parallels in the UK's new “Right to Rent” and “Right to Work” IDs, and even in America's Real ID program. From South Carolina's Senate Bill 731 to the quiet digitization of everyday freedoms, Lee breaks down how global digital ID systems are transforming citizens into monitored subjects — all under the guise of safety and modernization.

In this wide-ranging episode, Tara exposes the creeping global surveillance and political theater shaping our world. From the EU's new biometric exit-entry system that treats travelers like criminals, to the UK and U.S. moving toward digital IDs, Tara explores how personal freedom is increasingly tied to compliance. He also dives into the timing of Trump's COVID booster amid international studies linking mRNA vaccines to serious health risks, and how U.S. officials allegedly manipulate safety data. On top of that, Tara dissects political hypocrisy, highlighting Lindsey Graham's contradictory actions, DOJ surveillance, and high-profile cases of political corruption. This episode is a cautionary tale of liberty, health, and accountability in a world where technology and politics collide.

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, Avik speaks with award-winning techno-thriller author Guy Morris about blending rigorous research with fiction to wake readers up to real-world risks. We unpack how 70 years of AI progress, geopolitics, national debt, climate pressure, and election manipulation converge—and why credible facts make stories stick. Guy shares the FBI-knock-on-the-door moment that reshaped his view of technology, a clear warning on facial recognition and biometric logins, and his choice to write high-tension, non-gun-hero protagonists grounded in human ethics. If you care about mental clarity in an anxious news cycle, digital safety, and page-turners that actually teach, this episode is for you. About the guest:   Guy Morris spent 38 years leading tech and strategy at firms like IBM, Oracle, and Microsoft before turning to fiction. Since 2020 he's released multiple award-winning thrillers—often compared to Dan Brown and Robert Ludlum—rooted in real technologies, history, and geopolitics. Key takeaways  : Research isn't window dressing; verifiable facts make fiction provoke thought and change behavior AI isn't new—it's a 70-year arc now reaching mass application; risks arise when commercial incentives downplay failure modes . Guy writes to show the convergence of pressures: geopolitics, national debt, climate, banking shifts, misinformation, and democratic backsliding Thrillers as a release valve: transforming societal anxiety into narrative helps audiences process fear and consider options. A 1990s incident—an NSA program “escaped”—sparked Guy's security lens and eventually drew a visit from the FBI, proving how plausible his reconstruction was. Core advice: avoid using biometrics (face, iris, thumbprint) as passwords; if compromised, you can't reset your face or print. He favors non-violent protagonists and ethical problem-solving; ingenuity over lethality preserves human dignity and reduces copycat harm. Mental habit: focus on history + humanity—tech amplifies old human tendencies; understand the past to choose wiser futures.

Trust Stamp President Andrew Gowasack joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the rollout of the company's proprietary biometric-binding technology, positioning it as the critical solution to systemic failures in age-verification laws that are increasingly collapsing under real-world pressures. As governments worldwide push for stronger online safety measures, existing age-verification systems have proven inadequate. According to Gowasack, most current solutions rely on weak proxies—such as verifying a device, browser, or IP address—and then pretending this equals verifying a person. These approaches create security loopholes that can be easily exploited, leaving companies exposed to both regulatory penalties and reputational harm. Trust Stamp's newly launched solution, TrustedAge™, directly addresses these flaws. Unlike traditional systems—likened by Gowasack to a “paper ticket, easily copied or passed around”—TrustedAge functions as a biometric key permanently bound to a single user. A live biometric capture confirms that the rightful owner is present for every login session, rendering the credential useless to anyone else. The urgency for a viable solution is clear. Gowasack noted that recent challenges in the UK with VPN-based circumvention are a preview of the chaos heading to the United States, where more than two dozen states are rolling out legislation mandating age verification. Companies face potential fines of up to $10,000 per violation, creating what Gowasack called a “compliance nightmare.” Trust Stamp's technology offers a ready-to-deploy answer. After a one-time verification, the credential is permanently bound to the individual. Subsequent access requires only a quick, live selfie check—without storing sensitive biometric data. This ensures that the age credential is non-transferable, immune to theft or sharing, and closes compliance loopholes that leave companies vulnerable to both legal and financial risk. With TrustedAge, Trust Stamp positions itself at the forefront of solving one of the most urgent challenges in digital safety: enforcing age verification in a way that works, scales, and protects privacy. #proactiveinvestors #truststamp #nasdaq #idai #IdentityTech #DigitalIdentity #Fintech #GhanaID #SouthKoreaStartup #AsiaExpansion #KStartupChallenge #FinancialServices #Biometrics #TechExpansion #ProactiveInvestors #AndrewGowasack

Trust Stamp President Chief Science Officer Norman Poh joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a major step forward in digital identity and online safety: the company has introduced Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) for remote human presence, an innovation designed to transform how age and identity verification are conducted in digital environments. Dr. Poh presented the breakthrough at “On the Pulse Conversation: Research and Innovation – Current Developments in Biometrics,” an online event hosted by the Biometrics Institute. The advancement responds to growing demand for secure, privacy-first solutions in Know Your Customer (KYC) protocols and age assurance processes, particularly as online fraud and privacy concerns continue to rise. Traditional verification methods often require sharing sensitive personal data, which can be stored, compromised, or misused. They are also vulnerable to credential sharing and “friendly fraud,” where legitimate credentials are used by unauthorized individuals. Trust Stamp's solution—Biometric Bound Credentials (BBCreds)—uses ZKP technology to cryptographically bind age and identity credentials directly to an individual's biometric features, without ever storing biometric templates. This ensures that only the legitimate, physically present individual can access regulated or age-restricted services, dramatically reducing risks while protecting user privacy. The company emphasized that this ZKP-driven approach fundamentally changes remote authentication. Instead of relying on the device as the authenticator, BBCreds authenticate the user themselves, preventing misuse even if a device is shared or compromised. Device unlocking alone is no longer sufficient for access, raising the security bar across industries. By enabling remote human presence and age verification without exposing biometric data, Trust Stamp believes this technology will set a new benchmark in security, compliance, and user trust—particularly for industries that must balance strict regulatory requirements with consumer privacy. #proactiveinvestors #truststamp #nasdaq #idai #IdentityTech #DigitalIdentity #Fintech #GhanaID #SouthKoreaStartup #AsiaExpansion #KStartupChallenge #FinancialServices #Biometrics #TechExpansion #ProactiveInvestors #AndrewGowasack

Max Blumenthal exposes the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation—a Trump-linked, Israeli-backed operation weaponizing aid to enforce mass starvation and biometric surveillance in Gaza. Drawing on whistleblower Anthony Aguilar's frontline testimony of Israeli war crimes, Blumenthal details how aid sites turn into kill zones and the brutal reality of Gaza's digital prison. He reveals deep Israeli penetration of US law enforcement and the cover-up of major scandals. With Netanyahu doubling down on ethnic cleansing and Gaza's destruction, and growing resistance inside Israel, this report lays bare the genocidal agenda fueled by unchecked US-Israel power.

There are a lot of voices out there in the world of health, wellness & performance. Some – probably most of what we see on Instagram and Youtube – involve more show than go, more staged than engaged. Too often, it involves charismatic individuals who talk a very good talk but provide little insight into their actual walk. Or worse yet, we discover the healthy lifestyle claims made to sell supplements, exercise equipment or coaching resources turn out to be the result of performance enhancing drugs that never quite get mentioned in their script.Does those things matter? I hope so. We ALL have plenty of room for growth – and some things are, frankly, none of our business. But what if you could pull back the curtain, learn about the daily details of life beyond the sound bites? Would it make a difference? Provide some additional encouragement?

In this episode, we explore the powerful practice of cycle syncing--a method of aligning nutrition, fitness, sleep, and daily habits with the four phases of the menstrual cycle (menstrual, follicular, ovulatory, and luteal) to optimize female health and performance. Designed for women seeking better energy, hormonal balance, and productivity, this episode breaks down how to use biofeedback tools like heart rate variability (HRV) and resting heart rate (RHR) to track recovery, predict hormonal shifts, and guide training intensity. Listeners learn how to adapt their nutrition to reduce cravings and support hormonal balance, improve sleep quality by phase, and adjust their workouts to match energy availability--pushing harder in the follicular and ovulatory phases and embracing recovery in the luteal phase. The key message is clear: cycle syncing is not about restriction, but about working with your body, not against it, to unlock greater vitality, clarity, and long-term health.SHOW NOTES:0:39 Welcome to the show!3:12 The Art of Cycle Syncing6:03 Who this is for9:15 Reducing illness & symptoms11:16 Ancestral cycles & rhythms13:45 Cycle Syncing basics17:01 Data Wearables for Period tracking20:00 Biometrics per menstrual phase27:14 HRV & what recovery feels like28:19 *MIMIO*30:09 Translating HRV metrics35:17 How to start cycle syncing36:46 Cycle Syncing biohacks38:02 Pairing exercise with your cycle42:47 Pairing nutrition with your cycle46:40 Troubleshooting your luteal phase53:10 Cycle syncing as a guide, not a blueprint55:50 Thanks for tuning in!RESOURCES:Cycle Syncing GuideOURA RingNatural Cycles appMIMO HEALTH - code: biohackerbabesPUORI - discount code: biohackerbabesSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/biohacker-babes-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

The research world is never short on headlines, and this week's Intellicast is proof. Brian and Gabby return to break down the latest headlines from around the market research industry. Topping the list is a deep dive into the new whitepaper from Strat7, which compares synthetic data providers using real-world testing methods. The whitepaper finds that while synthetic data performs well on individual questions, it falls apart when you examine the full respondent experience — consistency, internal logic, and key drivers simply don't align with real human behavior. Meanwhile, ESOMAR has updated its Code of Standards in partnership with the International Chamber of Commerce. The revised code introduces major new guidance on: Use of AI and synthetic data Consent and notification protocols Biometric and immersive data collection Inclusivity and the “duty of care” to vulnerable respondents Other major topics in the episode include: Kantar Worldpanel rebranding under Numerator Norstat's acquisition of Sample Solutions, strengthening its global B2B sample reach Rep Data's “No Fly” list to filter out fraudulent respondents using Research Defender NIQ's $1.25B IPO filing, aimed at reducing debt and increasing competitiveness This episode is perfect for anyone trying to stay informed on sample trends, ethics in AI, and what the future holds for insights professionals.

My guest today is Caryn Seidman-Becker. Caryn is the Chairman and CEO of Clear. She bought the company out of bankruptcy for $6 million in 2010 and built it into the identity platform millions use in airports and stadiums today. Her Wall Street background investing in Apple, Amazon, and Priceline taught her to recognize when products become platforms, which shaped her vision for Clear as the "definitive secure identity platform" far beyond travel. Caryn shares the gritty early days of literally hunting down hardware in airport storage facilities and rebuilding the entire business from scratch. She embodies an incredible "bias for action." We discuss turning around a business, scaling a platform, and why she believes your face will soon be your key to everything. Please enjoy my conversation with Caryn Seidman-Becker.

The last time Philipp Pointner joined me on the podcast, AI was just a whisper on the horizon. We discussed the foundational role of digital identity in establishing trust between individuals and platforms. But fast forward to 2025, and the conversation has shifted dramatically. We're no longer just discussing verification for compliance. We're reckoning with synthetic identities, deepfake armies, and the growing push for reusable digital credentials. In today's episode, Philipp returns to unpack how much has changed since 2022. As Chief of Digital Identity at Jumio, he's right at the intersection of where AI meets trust. Fraud has evolved from lone hackers into coordinated operations that run on an industrial scale. ID fraud is no longer a matter of bad actors copying documents. Its entire networks generate tens of thousands of AI-manipulated identities with the click of a button. So, how are businesses adapting? Philipp breaks down the layered approach required for modern identity verification, touching on risk signals across various channels, including documents, devices, faces, emails, and more. He also points to an encouraging trend: cross-industry collaboration. Companies, regulators, and tech vendors are no longer working in silos. They are coordinating efforts to counter this new breed of threats. But this isn't just about fraud. We explore how identity solutions are now a key part of improving onboarding, boosting customer satisfaction, and even reducing operational costs. With significant regulatory shifts underway in Europe, the UK, and the US, from mobile driver's licenses to national digital identity schemes, businesses can't afford to fall behind. Philipp also tackles the AI paradox. The same technology that enables deepfakes is now critical for combating them. Jumio is using AI to detect fakes, verify liveness, and stay one step ahead of fraudsters. Biometrics, meanwhile, are becoming mainstream, not just in airports but as part of everyday onboarding and authentication. If you're thinking about what identity means for your business in 2025 and beyond, this episode offers a practical, timely look at what's here now and what's coming next. Whether you care about compliance, conversion rates, or protecting your users, it all starts with knowing who you're dealing with. And increasingly, that requires more than just asking for a photo ID. What role will your organization play in the future of digital trust?
