“We need to make things easier and secure from the foundation—by design.” — Stephen Marshall, CEO, Moon Equity Holdings Corp. In a compelling new episode of Technology Reseller News, publisher Doug Green sits down with Stephen Marshall, CEO of Moon Equity Holdings Corp., to discuss a transformative initiative aimed at rebuilding the Internet from the ground up. At the heart of the conversation is Indexr.ai, a new distributed platform designed to restore privacy, curb AI-generated disinformation, and reassert user control in the digital age. Moon Equity Holdings, a public company on the pink sheets, was repurposed by Marshall as the funding vehicle for Indexr, bypassing traditional Silicon Valley capital to allow everyday people to participate in the Internet's reinvention. As Marshall explains, the current structure of the web—laden with bloated code, vulnerable data pipelines, and AI hallucinations—has reached a breaking point. “AI is already citing AI,” warns Marshall, describing a dangerous feedback loop where hallucinated content becomes canon. He even recounts a personal experience where a major AI platform mistakenly declared him deceased, combining his bio with an obituary of another individual bearing his name. Marshall's solution is not merely a browser—though the term is used for accessibility. Instead, Indexr is a distributed, privacy-centric platform built with hypercloud architecture, modular stacks, and VPN-like node networking. It promises secure, scalable, and customizable experiences for consumers, businesses, and government use alike. With Indexr, Marshall and his team aim to dismantle the data-leaking, cookie-laden infrastructure of today's Internet and replace it with something secure by default. This vision extends into the defense sector, with Marshall also co-founding Shieldcom, a private communications company supporting secure military-grade communications. Green and Marshall conclude by emphasizing the importance of building digital ecosystems that are both usable and trustworthy. The Indexr platform, slated for rollout by year-end, may be just the start of a new chapter in how we connect, search, and share online. Learn more at: https://indexr.ai

In this episode we explore how the concept of privacy is evolving in the digital age. Join us for a thought-provoking conversation as we discuss theoretical challenges, global comparisons, and interdisciplinary research shaping the understanding of digital privacy today with the co-founders of CPRN - Comparative Privacy Research Network.We begin by examining why privacy remains a contested and complex concept, considering its shift from a strictly legal definition to an evolving social expectation. Next, we introduce the Comparative Privacy Research framework, exploring how privacy concerns and behaviors vary dramatically across different cultural, political, and technological contexts.Our guests reflect on how comparative research can inform better privacy regulations and why privacy literacy alone cannot fully address the structural challenges posed by digital platforms. Finally, we delve into the collaboration and co-authoring process behind privacy research, highlighting the interdisciplinary nature of the field, the journey from initial ideas to publication, and offering practical advice for emerging scholars.CPR framework: https://doi.org/10.1080/01972243.2025.2451863CPRN – Comparative Privacy Research Network : https://comparativeprivacy.org/

Send us a textFeeling uneasy about who might be listening through your smartphone? You should be. In this eye-opening conversation, Dr. Robert Jackson sits down with tech security expert Sean Patrick Tarrio who reveals the shocking truth about our devices: they're listening even when turned off.Sean blows the lid off the digital surveillance ecosystem that's harvesting your personal data around the clock. "These companies are siphoning all of our information and selling it to the highest bidder on a regular basis," he explains, backing his claims with documented evidence of tech giants selling user data to government agencies for hundreds of millions annually.The Apple privacy myth gets thoroughly debunked as Sean demonstrates how their "trust us" approach contradicts their closed systems, app store control, and court cases. He challenges listeners to conduct a simple experiment: turn off your iPhone, talk about buying something unusual like gold or real estate, then watch as those exact product advertisements appear when you power back on.Many resign themselves to digital monitoring with a defeated "they already have my data anyway" attitude. Sean brilliantly counters this by comparing it to a patient with diabetes refusing to change their diet because "I've eaten unhealthily my whole life." Just as changing health habits can improve your future wellness, reclaiming digital privacy protects your information going forward.Whether you're tech-savvy or technophobic, Sean offers practical, incremental steps anyone can take toward digital freedom. He shares insights on secure messaging apps, explains AI as a powerful tool that can either protect or harm depending on who controls it, and emphasizes that simplifying your digital life might be the most effective privacy strategy of all.Ready to take back control of your digital life? Visit mark37.com for resources, educational articles, and free consultations that can guide your journey toward genuine digital privacy. Because as Sean powerfully states, "Your privacy matters no matter what."https://mark37.com/apple-privacy-illusion/https://www.jacksonfamilyministry.comhttps://bobslone.com/home/podcast-production/

This week's episode of THE FINANCIAL COMMUTE features a special session recorded live from Morton Wealth's 2024 Investor Symposium. Executive Vice President Eric Selter invites Carmine Cicalese, Senior Partner at Digital Privacy & Protection, LLC, to discuss protecting oneself from cybersecurity threats.Here are some key takeaways from their conversation:More than half of U.S. citizens have experienced cybercrime, with identity theft occurring every 22 seconds.Fraudsters typically use phishing (email), smishing (text), and vishing (voice) to manipulate victims, often using AI to clone voices for scams.If money is stolen from an online bank or investment account, recovery is unlikely due to liability agreements customers sign.Best practices for protecting yourself include using a VPN, a password manager, a private email (not a free email platform like Gmail or Outlook) for sensitive matters, multi-factor authentication, ensuring your passwords are strong and unique (20+ characters), changing default passwords on smart home devices, and refraining from posting too much about your personal life on social media.It's crucial to remember that if a platform is free, you are the product. They are probably selling your data, and it is important to practice caution when communicating personal info across these free platforms.The best protection is a healthy dose of skepticism. If something feels suspicious, don't engage.

It's become pretty easy to spot phishing scams: UPS orders you never made, banking alerts from companies you don't bank with, phone calls from unfamiliar area codes. But over the past decade, these scams – and the technology behind them – have become more sophisticated, invasive and sinister, largely due to the rise of something called ‘mercenary spyware.'The most potent version of this tech is Pegasus, a surveillance tool developed by an Israeli company called NSO Group. Once Pegasus infects your phone, it can see your texts, track your movement, and download your passwords – all without you realizing you'd been hacked.We know a lot of this because of Ron Deibert. Twenty years ago, he founded Citizen Lab, a research group at the University of Toronto that has helped expose some of the most high profile cases of cyber espionage around the world.Ron has a new book out called Chasing Shadows: Cyber Espionage, Subversion, and the Global Fight for Democracy, and he sat down with me to explain how spyware works, and what it means for our privacy – and our democracy.Note: We reached out to NSO Group about the claims made in this episode and they did not reply to our request for comment.Mentioned:“Chasing Shadows: Cyber Espionage, Subversion, and the Global Fight for Democracy,” by Ron Deibert“Meta's WhatsApp says spyware company Paragon targeted users in two dozen countries,” by Raphael Satter, ReutersFurther Reading:“The Autocrat in Your iPhone,” by Ron Deibert“A Comprehensive Analysis of Pegasus Spyware and Its Implications for Digital Privacy and Security,” Karwan Kareem“Stopping the Press: New York Times Journalist Targeted by Saudi-linked Pegasus Spyware Operator,” by Bill Marczak, Siena Anstis, Masashi Crete-Nishihata, John Scott-Railton, and Ron Deibert

In this episode, we dive into the shocking 2016 case of Benjamin Jay Barber, one of the first individuals convicted under Oregon's groundbreaking ‘revenge porn' legislation House Bill 2596 — a groundbreaking law criminalizing the unlawful dissemination of intimate images. This and other pivotal cases shed light on the darker corners of the internet, the loopholes in privacy laws, and the consequences of weaponizing intimate content. (Just one of the many reasons that we can't have nice things).  Barber, sentenced to a mere six months in jail and five years of probation, became a grim example of how revenge porn devastates victims and exposes the urgent need for stronger protections. While his case may have proved a legal landmark, it also revealed significant gaps in enforcement—raising questions about why perpetrators like Barber often avoid being classified as sex offenders. Why do we still struggle to balance free speech with basic human decency? Caitlyn doesn't hold back as she critiques the societal norms and legal blind spots that let predators exploit others with impunity.But this isn't just about one man. In this episode, we also examine the broader cultural and legal implications of cases like Barber's. From the shocking up-skirt photo case at a Target store in Beaverton, Oregon to the broader prevalence of nonconsensual pornography, we explore how systemic failures allow predators to thrive—and what changes are still desperately needed. Listen as we unravel the devastating consequences of these crimes, the problematic gaps in justice, and the role of – you guessed it, the always problematic, patriarchy, in perpetuating these abuses.This week we introduced you to Ashley from That's So Fcked Up!

Not since Gutenberg's printing press has one human being's inventions improved the quality of life for people as much as Apple co-founder and principle creator Steve Wozniak.    Fortunately for me the Woz loves jokes, humor and comedy in general so after sending him several heart felt e-mails requesting to chat with him he agreed, so last week while I was performing in San Francisco I drove down to Cupertino to record this conversation while him. This conversation was recorded at the Mandarin Oriental restaurant where Steve asked me to meet him. There is pleasant violin based classic music playing in the background because the owner politely delinked my request to turn off the music.    Steve Wozniak is not only a creative genius who has improved human life more than any other human being in the last 300 years, he also loves and cherishes humor and the story tellers who create the jokes.    He is exciting to talk to because he thinks so fast and can convey complicated information in a very simple way to be understood universally. His genius is not exclusively bound to his inventions that will lead the world to higher plains of consciousness and communications but it is the basic fact that he is a good person who genuinely cares about helping dreamer people like me wherever he can. It is my pleasure to present to you now the one and only Steve Wozniak!   Intro song: Cutting Room (Hot Pants) – Oceanliners Movie clip from YouTube: Her TRAILER 1 (2013) - Joaquin Phoenix, Scarlett Johansson Movie HD Movie clip from YouTube: Klaatu's warning Recorded in Cupertino, CA.

Thoughts on Technology AI Concerns: Wozniak shares concerns about AI surpassing human control, aligning with fears from Elon Musk and Stephen Hawking. He believes humanity's dependence on machines began with the Industrial Revolution.

On this episode of the Berkeley Technology Law Journal, we sat down with Professor Rebecca Wexler to discuss the intersection between reproductive justice and data privacy. In June 2022, the Supreme Court issued a ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization. Dobbs overturned Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey's holdings that the US Constitution grants a right to an abortion. Shortly thereafter, Professor Wexler co-authored with Professor Aziz Huq an article in the New York University Law Review titled “Digital Privacy for Reproductive Choice in the Post-Roe Era. Today, Professor Wexler reflects on that piece and on the need for an evidentiary privilege to shield reproductive data from use in criminal investigations. We hope you enjoy the podcast.

The Future of Focused Technology Petter Neby was inspired to create Punkt in 2008 due to his growing concerns about the effects of constant internet access on people's attention spans and lifestyles. His inspiration came from personal experience and observations of how technology, particularly smartphones, was impacting daily life. "With the Internet at our fingertips 24/7, we forget how easy it is to outsource our brains to phones. Choose a restaurant, get directions, ping a friend, go on a date, select some music, download a health app; when in doubt, ask Google. Looking out of a window, sitting on a city bench, chatting to strangers, asking for directions, or getting lost can be great opportunities for serendipity and human interaction. Even boredom, something we avoid more and more with smartphones, is essential for creativity." Petter Neby The necessity of having alternative models in the mobile tech sector, with Petter Neby, Founder & CEO of Punkt. Founder & Chairman of Apostrophy Petter Neby, founder & CEO of Punkt., is a Norwegian technology entrepreneur. Throughout his career, Neby has successfully founded and managed businesses in telecommunications, enterprise software, and website development. However, his most impactful venture came in 2008 when he created Punkt., a company dedicated to offering elegant, focused alternatives to the increasingly dominant multi-function devices in the consumer electronics market.

"Do you ever get the feeling your devices are listening to your conversations and tracking you without your consent? Unfortunately, they are and they have been for a VERY long time.....It does not have to be this way and it is time YOU and WE put an end to this paradigm." In an ironic twist, Sean and his technical team take mint condition Google Pixel phones, wipe them clean and rebuild them on an Open-source platform and completely 'de-googles' the phones. In addition to providing the most affordable smart phone running the most secure and private mobile operating system with the 'Ghost Phone', he and his team also offer ghost tablets, ghost laptops and plenty of resources, alternatives and technical support to break free from BigTech and live privately. The training is formidable and exposes the truth about how BigTech is currently attempting to monetize, cancel and silence Christian and Conservative voices.

It's been a wild last year or so in tech. We've seen a marked rise in the development of artificial intelligence, large language models and prolific growth of augmented reality systems. At the same time, it can feel like we're moving backwards as concerns continue to rise about user privacy and the methods by which personal data is collected and monetized. Our guest this week points out that protecting privacy requires tech companies to ditch traditional business models that monetize user surveillance. Meredith Whittaker is president of Signal App and serves as the chief advisor for the AI Now Institute. She joins WITHpod to discuss the rise of big tech, the trajectory of the internet from being more commercialized to open, concerns about tech's role in American democracy, her thoughts on proposed TikTok bans and more.
