Podcasts about data sovereignty

Episode #121 - In this episode of the Awakened Heart Podcast, I'm thrilled to welcome Ron Bienvenu—a man I've known personally for years and who never fails to challenge the status quo. From our first meeting at The Whaler in Venice Beach to visits in New Orleans, Ron's unique perspective on life and technology has always inspired me.Ron's new book, The Fifth Shock, serves as a philosophical wake-up call addressing the profound shifts happening in our world today. In our conversation, we explore the complex relationship between spirituality, artificial intelligence, and the future of humanity. Ron is the Founder and Managing Partner of Noetic Investment Partners, with over 40 years of experience in technology and finance. He's been instrumental in shaping the way companies approach data and AI, especially through his work in data assetization—turning data into a capital-grade asset.Ron discusses how AI is transforming human identity, the critical need for economic innovations like Universal Behavioral Income, and the moral responsibilities we face with advancing technology. He advocates for the integration of human wisdom into AI systems and a digital Bill of Rights to safeguard individual freedom in a rapidly evolving digital era. Beyond the intellectual discussion, Ron shares a deeply personal story about his daughter, a storm in Tulum, and a poignant poem that encapsulates resilience and courage.This episode blends cutting-edge ideas with heartfelt storytelling—a must-listen for anyone curious about the future of technology, spirituality, and human sovereignty.TakeawaysThe conversation explores the awakening to spirituality and AI.Wisdom is essential in the age of AI.Humanity must navigate the challenges posed by AI.The need for a Universal Behavioral Income is highlighted.AI should enhance human agency, not replace it.Geopolitical implications of digital power are significant.Data is becoming the most valuable asset in the modern economy.Consciousness may be the key to understanding the universe.Moral implications of AI must be addressed.  Machines rely on human creativity and authenticity.Innovation's value is declining due to rapid replication.Congress has become ineffective in governance.The media has compromised its integrity for profit.A grassroots revolution is necessary for change.Parenting can instill strength and independence in children.Life lessons can be learned through shared experiences.Mediocrity should be avoided in pursuit of greatness.The meaning of life is a profound question worth exploring.Sound Bite"How do we navigate this?""My voice is my whip.""Mediocrity is a disease."Chapters00:00 Introduction and Personal Connection01:48 Awakening to Spirituality and AI05:30 The Human Experience vs. AI08:46 Data Sovereignty and Behavioral Income12:20 The Future of AI and Human Agency15:47 Geopolitical Implications of Digital Rights19:32 The Evolution of Wealth and Value22:45 The Broken Accounting System and Change26:11 Spirituality and the Path Forward30:34 The Devil's Bargain: A Reflection on Spirituality31:26 The Metaverse and Voluntary Extinction32:16 Preserving Human Consciousness in a Digital Age35:58 The Intersection of Technology, Philosophy, and Spirituality37:33 Consciousness as the Fifth Element38:47 Spiritual Recursion and Algorithmic Logic42:34 Moral Constructs in a Digital World46:29 The Homogenization of Beauty and Authenticity49:24 Innovation and the Value of Networks53:07 Disappointment in Governance and Media56:34 Global Political Landscape and the Call for Change01:01:12 A Stormy Journey: Father-Daughter Bonding and Life Lessons01:10:27 Empowerment Through Authenticity and Courage01:14:35 Navigating the Future: Technology, Sovereignty, and Human ConnectionConnect with Ron:linkedinInstagram Facebook XThe Fifth ShockXIG FacebookLet's Connect!⁠Website⁠Instagram FacebookYoutubeRumble⁠Tik Tok⁠Linkedin

This week on APTN InFocus, host Cierra Bettens explores the growing movement for Indigenous data sovereignty. In a TED Talk, British investigative journalist Carole Cadwalladr warns we may already be “living inside the architecture of totalitarianism,” referring to the predatory ways big tech companies harvest, use and sell data. Data holds a lot. It holds stories, histories, languages — all the information that defines who we are and where we come from. It's also a resource — and like other resources, it can be exploited by corporate and colonial interests. To unpack what Indigenous data sovereignty means and how it's being put into action, Cierra is joined by Jeff Ward, founder and CEO of Animikii. His Indigenous tech company has launched Niiwin, a platform designed to help communities manage and protect their data on their own terms. • • • APTN National News, our stories told our way.

RE-RELEASE: This episode was originally released in April 2024. The TikTok ban took effect late Saturday night, but may be revoked by President-elect Trump.This week, A'ndre is joined by Lindsay Gorman, the Managing Director & Senior Fellow at the German Marshall Fund's GMF Tech, to delve into the controversies surrounding TikTok and its implications for national security. Lindsay sheds light on ByteDance, the company behind TikTok, and discusses the concerns surrounding its data storage practices. A'ndre and Lindsay explore the concept of data sovereignty and discuss whether China can access ByteDance's data at will, and why it's different from how the U.S. Government engages with U.S.-based social media companies. Lindsay outlines the types of user data TikTok gathers, and touches upon how China can exploit this collected data. The conversation extends to China's history of leveraging social media platforms for targeting dissenters and the workings of TikTok's algorithms in content recommendation -- particularly with regards to misinformation and polarization. Lindsay offers insights into the likelihood of a TikTok divestiture (and why it's not a ban), legal challenges it might face, and the possibility of a U.S.-based firm acquiring TikTok. The discussion concludes with an examination of China's reaction to the scrutiny, and what Lindsay sees as the biggest myths surrounding TikTok.CORRECTION: A'ndre referenced a dispute between the FBI and Apple, incorrectly attributing it to the Boston Bombing investigation, when in actuality it was the 2015 San Bernardino Terror Attack

Indigenous Data Sovereignty: Collective Rights & Responsibility features Dr. Tahu Kukutai (Māori) and Dr.Dr. Desi Small-Rodriguez (Northern Cheyenne and Chicana), with commentary from Dr. Keolu Fox (Kanaka Maoli), in a detailed exploration of the question: What is Indigenous data sovereignty, and what does it truly mean for Indigenous Peoples?Mega corporations now trade data as their primary currency, and while subversive, our Indigenous relatives recognize the extreme consequences and harm that comes from losing control of our stories, and therefore our data. As every action leaves a digital footprint, opting out is not a feasible choice. Around the world, Native communities are addressing these extractive systems, resisting their impacts, and fighting the good fight to create tangible systems to exercise sovereignty and protect Indigenous peoples, lands, and communities.Dr. Dr. Des and Dr. Tahu remind us that the concept of  “individual” data is an illusion. The decisions we make in digital space carry real consequences– not only for ourselves, but also for the land and our communities. For those of us who aren't data scientists or daily activist warriors, this conversation serves as a grounding reminder that we are still part of this fight. Our understanding and ability to discuss these ideas create ripple effects that contribute to the broader movement.From discussing tangible steps to assert our true Tribal sovereignty and self-determination by bringing data servers to Tribal lands, to fighting for law and legislation about accessing existing Indigenous data controlled by the states and governments, or to exploring ways we can use our existing Indigenous frameworks and protocols to humanize the data into stories that are accessible and relevant to our communities, this conversation elevates the realities of the Indigenous data sovereignty revolution and its impacts on our collective contemporary survival. +++Editing & All the things by Teo ShantzEpisode artwork by Ciara SanaFilm work by Francisco SánchezSend us your thoughts!Support the showFollow us on Instagam @amrpodcast, or support our work on Patreon.

He highlighted that ransomware remains one of the top threats, particularly in Asia and Australia. This persistent issue underscores the importance of robust data governance and access control. Abbas emphasized that organizations must establish strong security foundations, including data classification and access management, to prepare for the complexities introduced by AI. Without these measures, companies risk exposing sensitive information when leveraging generative AI solutions.The discussion also touched on data sovereignty, a critical topic for governments and defense organizations in Australia. Abbas noted the growing number of localized data centers built by major cloud providers to meet sovereignty requirements. While private sector organizations tend to be less stringent about data location, government entities require data to remain onshore. Frameworks like IRAP and Essential Eight are instrumental in ensuring compliance and guiding organizations in implementing consistent security practices.Zero Trust emerged as a transformative concept post-pandemic. According to Abbas, it simplified cybersecurity by enabling secure remote work and encouraging organizations to embrace cloud solutions. He contrasted this with the rise of generative AI, which has introduced both opportunities and challenges.

Data sovereignty has three dimensions: data residency, access to data, and stewardship of data. Besides deciding where to store data, it is essential to determine who can have access to it - which becomes more crucial as we consider priorities such as access to cloud across national borders, as well as using the data for training AI models. Furthermore, many organizations do not have complete knowledge of where their data is stored, and others do not have complete control of the encryption keys that keep their cloud data safe. The deeper we get into a data dependent ecosystem, the more complex the issues of data sovereignty, access and security become.

Oracle's Expanding Multi-Cloud StrategyThe Big Themes:Oracle's unique cloud architecture: Oracle's differentiated cloud architecture offers customers flexibility across different environments, whether public, private, or government. This hybrid architecture ensures that customers can deploy the same services whether they need an on-premises solution, a fully isolated cloud region, or a multi-cloud setup. Oracle's approach also addresses the specific needs of regulated industries, like finance or healthcare.Global expansion and investments: Oracle is heavily investing in expanding its cloud infrastructure across the globe, including in emerging markets like Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, and Latin America. These investments aim to meet growing local demands for cloud services while enhancing Oracle's global footprint. By establishing more localized data centers, Oracle can reduce latency for customers, ensure data sovereignty, and cater to regional regulatory requirements.Multi-cloud partnerships: Oracle's partnerships with major cloud providers like Microsoft, Google Cloud, and AWS represent a shift in the cloud industry, as it was previously unheard of for these companies to collaborate. Oracle recognized early on that customers were using multi-cloud strategies, so it adapted by integrating with these other platforms. Its willingness to collaborate with competitors reflects its commitment to answering customers' needs.The Big Quote: “It is very clear that customers drive our strategy . . . Oracle is kicking this multi-cloud era forward, an open era, if you will."

Valerie Vu, Founding Partner of Ansible Ventures, and Jeremy Au discussed three main themes: 1. Putin Bamboo Strategy: Vietnam's “bamboo strategy” foreign policy involves maintaining strong roots while being flexible, which allows Vietnam to navigate relationships with global superpowers like the US, China, and Russia. Valerie highlighted that in less than a year, Vietnam hosted visits from Presidents Xi Jinping, Joe Biden, and Vladimir Putin. This balancing act is crucial for Vietnam given its historical ties with Russia for military supplies and Vietnam war support, and its growing economic connections with the US and China. Valerie also pointed out that while the US expressed disappointment over Putin's visit, Vietnam's neutral stance is essential for its strategic, political, and economic interests. 2. Data Sovereignty & 49% Foreign Ownership Limit: Vietnam's new data sovereignty laws require tech giants like Amazon and Google to store data locally, similar to China and USA. They also discussed the foreign ownership cap, which limits foreign entities to 49% ownership in sensitive sectors like banking to safeguard national interests. However, insufficient local data capacity has led Vietnam to now allow 100% foreign ownership in data centers to attract more data center operators. 3. Investment Landscape: Valerie shared insights into the sectors thriving in Vietnam despite global financial uncertainties. She mentioned that consumer goods, healthcare, and education are performing exceptionally well. She discussed the challenges faced by fintech startups in Vietnam, particularly due to the lack of an open regulatory sandbox and the dominance of well-established banks. Jeremy and Valerie also discussed the impact of geopolitical tensions on FDI in Vietnam, the importance of infrastructure development for sustained economic growth, and the shift in educational trends.

This week, A'ndre is joined by Lindsay Gorman, the Managing Director & Senior Fellow at the German Marshall Fund's GMF Tech, to delve into the controversies surrounding TikTok and its implications for national security. Lindsay sheds light on ByteDance, the company behind TikTok, and discusses the concerns surrounding its data storage practices. A'ndre and Lindsay explore the concept of data sovereignty and discuss whether China can access ByteDance's data at will, and why it's different from how the U.S. Government engages with U.S.-based social media companies. Lindsay outlines the types of user data TikTok gathers, and touches upon how China can exploit this collected data. The conversation extends to China's history of leveraging social media platforms for targeting dissenters and the workings of TikTok's algorithms in content recommendation -- particularly with regards to misinformation and polarization. Lindsay offers insights into the likelihood of a TikTok divestiture (and why it's not a ban), legal challenges it might face, and the possibility of a U.S.-based firm acquiring TikTok. The discussion concludes with an examination of China's reaction to the scrutiny, and what Lindsay sees as the biggest myths surrounding TikTok.CORRECTION: A'ndre referenced a dispute between the FBI and Apple, incorrectly attributing it to the Boston Bombing investigation, when in actuality it was the 2015 San Bernardino Terror Attack

Data tells a story, and that's why survivors of the notorious Mohawk Institute – Canada's longest running residential school – are reclaiming data and sharing their truths. This week Rosanna speaks with Indigenous people who are reclaiming data to better understand the past and build towards the future. From traditional knowledge passed down through oral storytelling to the records kept by governments and institutions, data is power. Keeping that power in Indigenous hands is data sovereignty.

In this episode we are looking at how the public sector is embracing the hybrid cloud model and what steps need to be taken to be certain our information, as members of the public, is kept safe. It's a big issue. In 2021 and 2022 the largest percentage of cyber threats and attacks were reported by governments and the public sector, according to the European Parliament. So, what operational security strategies are being tailored for public sector needs? How does regulation differ between the public and private sector when it comes to hybrid cloud security? And how can leaders in health, education, the military, public transport and law enforcement ensure that adopting a hybrid cloud model is a secure option?
