Podcasts about Encryption

If you've been listening to this broadcast for any length of time, you will have heard me say on numerous occasions that those at the topmost levels of power in this world communicate hidden ideas with a sort of secret language, using various modalities to do so. Mainstream peer-reviewed scientific articles are one important place that this type of meta-communication occurs. This has important implications when you understand the cypher of translation to unlock the hidden narrative beneath the surface veneer. In this episode, I tear back the veil on what is really encoded in the science of "genetics"...The Epstein files reveal the cypher of translation for us...Reading from a Substack article that connects some of the dots linked here:https://substack.com/@telestai/note/p-188171529?utm_source=notes-share-action&r=1n87hzThis one is a barn-burner!www.alchemicaltechrevolution.com

PODCAST EPISODE | Redefining CyberSecurity With Sean Martin — On Location at InfoSecurity Europe 2026 On Location With Sean Martin And Marco Ciappelli Adversaries are stealing encrypted data today that they cannot read yet, and storing it until a quantum computer can. Sean Martin sat down with Forescout's Rik Ferguson to talk about “harvest now, decrypt later,” why Q-Day is closer than the comfortable timelines suggest, and what the decisions you make this year have to do with secrets you thought were safe forever.

Are we prepared for the deployment of a functional quantum computer? This week, Technology Now is returning to the topic of post quantum cryptography. We ask why the deadline for migrating to PQC enabled systems has been moved up, we discover what a quantum computer actually needs to be cryptographically relevant, and we pose the question: when it comes to migrating your systems to quantum resistant forms of encryption, could it already be too late for some people to start?This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week, hosts Michael Bird and Sam Jarrell look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations.

Jun 3, 2026 –Woody Preucil discusses the accelerating race toward Q-Day, when quantum computers are expected to break encryption standards, posing major security and economic risks. He highlights rapid technological advances in China, urgent...

Meta has ended support for end-to-end encrypted messaging on Instagram, effective May 8, 2026. The policy reversal, citing low adoption, comes against a backdrop of mounting regulatory pressure worldwide to crack down on illegal content — terrorism, piracy, child abuse material — exchanged through encrypted channels. The implications stretch well beyond one platform or a rarely-used feature. When private messages are plaintext, the questions of who can access them and under what circumstances become critical. This episode also unpacks what it means for ordinary users, beyond the privacy-versus-safety framing.

  UNIVERSAL PENTECOST   Passover was first celebrated when Israel escaped from slavery in Egypt when they were told to sacrifice a spotless lamb and sprinkle its blood on their doorposts. They were told to not to do the long baking process of leavening the bread - because of the haste with which they had to flee Egypt. And from that time on Israel celebrated the Passover Feast each year with unleavened bread. Leaven is basically yeast and other ingredients can be added. The Feast of Passover weekend where Jesus as the Lamb of God died on the cross included Resurrection Sunday where Jesus rose from the dead and offered his blood of sacrifice to the Father. And on that day was also the Jewish Feast of Sheaves which was symbolic of Jesus being the firstfruits of the Resurrection. And Fifty days after that came the Feast of Pentecost (pente = fifty) – a harvest feast for life instead of a blood sacrifice feast for sin. The Passover and all other sin offerings were required to use unleavened bread because leaven had become the symbol for sin. Paul even admonished the church in Corinth because of their unruly communion services, saying they were celebrating their communion with the old leaven of malice and evil. Their lives should have been an expression of a new leaven of love and life and faith and we'll see how this came to be our new spiritual reality today. The appearance of leaven occurred when Israel began to celebrate the Pentecost harvest feast with two loaves of leavened bread. The law commanded them to only use leavened bread in this feast instead of unleavened bread. (Leviticus 23:15).  This could appear to be a scandalous thing, as only unleavened bread was ritually used with sacrifices, but this leavened bread was prophesying a most significant and radical shift for the nature and being of humanity. That shift occurred on the Sunday of the Pentecost Feast after the death and resurrection of Jesus. His death and resurrection had universally reconciled humanity to Divinity as one in Spirit. And then came this further glorious shift of all flesh becoming indwelt by the Person of the Holy Spirit. Therefore the leaven of the Feast of Pentecost had been necessarily baked in for humanity to receive Holy Spirit life in Christ. The blood imagery of Passover was replaced by the new leavened bread imagery of Pentecost. Blood shed by Jesus speaks to us of his life given - Bread speaks of a life shared.   We move past an initial act of rescue to a continual act of communion with God. The new leaven symbolises the Holy Spirit being sent to us and for us.This radically changes our lives from having to be empowered by an Adamic sinful nature into now being sustained and empowered by the indwelling Christ through the Holy Spirit. The righteousness and true holiness of God is the basis of our life now and not the bondage to sinful flesh.  This is the amazing reality of the new Creation humanity – the truth that God does not wait for humanity to be perfected before he accepts them as his family. Universal Reconciliation has done away with need for unleavened bread and blood sacrifice for sin. Separation has ceased because sin no longer is the separation between us and God. He accepts humanity as leavened by grace and being transformed by the Holy Spirit within his love that works by faith. Resistance to believing this is the only problem, and the Holy Spirit has been sent to convict the world of that sin of unbelief (John 16:7). But why only two loaves at Pentecost – wouldn't the truth of the Trinity assume three loaves for Pentecost? No – because The Holy Sirit was not yet sent upon all flesh, Old Covenant theology did not teach about the Trinity. And during the Old Testament era only two Persons of the Trinity, the Father and the Christ Messiah represented the present and future hope of humanity, and the Holy Spirit's influence was limited to operating only through specific chosen individuals like prophets, kings, and priests and judges like Sampson, Gideon etc. Not mankind But the reality of the Trinity was presented in the Old Testament by so many types and shadows of a hidden threefold expression of God. There was the sun and moon and stars of the heavenly creation, the threefold architecture of Noah's Ark as the two lower decks and the upper compartment from where the dove of the holy Spirit flew out after the flood. There was the plan of the tabernacle and the temple with the outer court the inner court and the Most Holy Place (in the shape of the cross incidentally). It was all there but hidden. The most striking threefold manifestation of the Trinity which included  blood sacrifice and unleavened bread occurred when Abraham was met by three angels at an encampment where he was with his wife Sarai and his servants and his cattle. He greeted the three messengers as My Lord and not my lords, so in his addressing the three men as Adonai indicates that he had a revelation (called a theophany) of God as the three persons of the Trinity. He told Sarai to bake three loaves of unleavened bread for the men to eat and ordered his servant to slay a calf of sacrifice. The men then told him that Sarai would have a son and that through him Abraham would become the father of many nations and that all the families of the earth would be blessed. This blood sacrifice and the unleavened loaves pre-empted the first Passover feast in Egypt by 400 years and pre-empted the feast of the universal spiritual Pentecost after Jesus died on calvary by 2000 years.  But the Jewish Feast of Pentecost on that day fifty days after Jesus died and rose again sacrificed the usual two loaves of leavened bread. The astonishing revelation is that  The two loaves become three on the day! The third person of the Trinity was revealed as tongues of fire on that Pentecost! The shift from two to three loaves represents the full unveiling of the Trinity's work in the world and the unprecedented outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon all humanity. The prophetic progression to three loaves was also encrypted in the New Testament by Jesus in Matthew 13 where he teaches that the Kingdom of Heaven is like leaven hidden in three loaves of bread until the whole lump becomes transformed. The word “hidden” is fascinating. It is always written as krypto but Jesus used the Greek word egkrypto which is used nowhere else in Scripture. Encryption means not only hidden but encoded - the idea of something deeply embedded within and concealed internally until it transforms everything around it. This numerical shift from two to three prophesied the arrival and indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit on the Day of Pentecost. This transition illustrates the complete work of the Trinity: The Father is the source of the loving promise of adopting us as his unique and individual children through Jesus. Jesus is the sinless sacrifice and the "first fruits" of the resurrection. The Holy Spirit with tongues of fire represents the purifying and sanctifying fire of the trials of our faith and the empowering of our transformation into the likeness of God. The Holy Spirit concluded the third loaf reality, as His presence was finally poured out upon all flesh. Ultimately, this third loaf blessing is the establishment of the New Covenant. It marks a profound shift from the Old Testament—where the law was written on tablets of clay to a reality where the Holy Spirit writes the law directly onto human hearts. In fact the day of the Feast of Pentecost for Israel was also the exact same day that they celebrated the anniversary of the Law written on stone tablets with Moses at Sinai. That is how the Holy Spirit works. The old covenant operated through external rules written on stone but in the New Covenant the Spirit writes the law upon the heart and the Kingdom grows within.  This the grace in the New Covenant heart. In His expanded, New Covenant role, the Holy Spirit operates as an intensely personal guide and advocate. He universally convicts the world of unbelief and righteousness and the judgment of God upon Darkness. The Holy Spirit empowers those who believe and leads us into all truth, and spreads God's love into and through our hearts. He takes the teachings of Jesus and interprets them for us as individuals in highly personal ways, ensuring that people can hear and understand God ‘s voice regardless of their cultural or circumstantial or religious background – they all heard him that day in their own tongue. Ultimately, this continuous filling of the Holy Spirit empowers the Church to expand the Kingdom of God and express the Trinity of God to the world. The world changes when hearts change and this is why that Universal Pentecost mattered so deeply. Christianity is not institutional look good religion - it is divine life flowing through human vessels. Religion tries to conform people externally while the Spirit transforms people organically from the inside. Leaven works quietly and slowly and patiently, yet eventually it affects the entire loaf. Sometimes we become discouraged because transformation feels slow, but inner fermentation movement is evidence that life is active. You may not see dramatic change every day but if the Spirit is within you and you say yes to his work, something holy is expanding. God is more patient and thorough with your process than you are.

How safe is our data from internal threats? This week, Technology Now dives into the world of confidential computing. We ask why regular encryption when data is at rest or in transit might not be enough, we explore how confidential computing works to keep our data safer, and we examine why this concept is so important in the first place. Dr Nigel Edwards, Director of the Security Lab at HPE Labs, tells us more.This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week, hosts Michael Bird and Sam Jarrell look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations.About Nigel:https://www.linkedin.com/in/nigel-edwards-170591/

Uncover the chilling story behind a series of Chicago murders where encrypted messages and lipstick-smeared clues redefined the hunt for a killer. The episode examines the dark side of criminal justice, highlighting the devastating impact of false confessions on the innocent. It is a gripping look at what happens when law enforcement's narrative doesn't match the scientific reality.

Satya Nadella explains why Microsoft feared becoming "the next IBM" in dramatic testimony from the Elon Musk vs OpenAI trial, while Apple warns Canada that proposed surveillance legislation could weaken encryption security for everyone. In this episode of Hashtag Trending, Jim Love covers Amazon Web Services' new cloud desktop service for AI agents — and why vision-based automation may cost far more than expected when compared with direct API access. Apple pushes back against Canada's proposed Bill C-2, warning that mandated lawful-access capabilities could create exploitable security backdoors. The U.S. Federal Communications Commission also reverses course, allowing certain previously approved routers to continue receiving security updates through at least January 1, 2029, avoiding a security headache for millions of users. Then we close with the courtroom battle between Elon Musk and OpenAI, where Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella delivers one of the most revealing moments yet.

OpenAI is making a major move into enterprise services with The Deployment Company, sending its own engineers into customer organisations to help companies finally turn AI pilots into real business systems. Is this the start of direct competition with consulting giants like Accenture, Deloitte, IBM Consulting, and even partner Capgemini? Also in this episode: Reddit is blocking some mobile web users and pushing them into its app, triggering backlash from users who say the platform is sacrificing anonymity and convenience to improve monetisation after its public market debut. The backlash against AI data centres keeps growing. Communities are now complaining about low-frequency noise linked to cooling systems and backup infrastructure, while developers increasingly look to rural and unincorporated areas to avoid tougher local scrutiny. And finally: Meta says a lawsuit claiming WhatsApp's end-to-end encryption can be bypassed is falling apart. So why is the case still alive? If Meta has already presented sworn testimony denying the allegations, what keeps the plaintiffs moving forward?

Are we ready for emerging cybersecurity threats in the world of AI? This week, Technology Now looks at how AI has changed the world of cybersecurity for both the good and the bad. We ask how AI is harnessed by attackers to try and gain access to our systems while also exploring how AI can be used defensively too. David Hughes, SVP SASE Security, HPE Networking, tells us more. This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

A U.S. federal investigation into WhatsApp encryption was shut down before reaching a conclusion — after an internal claim suggested Meta systems may access message content in ways that conflict with public descriptions. In this episode of Cybersecurity Today, Jim Love breaks down what's known, what isn't, and why the story isn't going away. Also in this episode: A newly disclosed Linux vulnerability (CVE-2026-31431) allows an unprivileged local attacker to gain root permissions — using a flaw that may have existed since 2017 BlueKit, a new phishing toolkit, shows how AI is now being built directly into cybercrime platforms More than three million Alberta voter records exposed after being posted online — not by hacking, but by alleged misuse of legally distributed data These stories highlight a growing pattern: the biggest risks aren't always new attacks — they're often hidden in how systems are designed, used, and trusted. Chapters: 00:00 WhatsApp encryption investigation shut down 02:15 Linux "copy fail" root vulnerability explained 04:30 BlueKit AI phishing platform 06:30 Alberta voter data leak Cybersecurity Today delivers clear, factual reporting on the stories that matter to IT professionals, business leaders, and anyone responsible for protecting data and systems.

It starts with a message in a group chat: a man asking for advice on exactly how much sedative to slip into his wife’s tea tonight so he can sexually assault her while she's unconscious. Following the horrific 2024 trial of Dominique Pelicot in France, a new investigation has revealed that this wasn't an isolated case, but a thriving global ecosystem. From 'sleep' content on major porn sites to private forums where men livestream their drugged partners for a fee, the scale of this internet-enabled abuse is staggering. We’re joined by CNN Paris Bureau Chief Saskya Vandoorne, who infiltrated these secret 'brotherhoods' to expose how these men operate under the cover of anonymity and why platforms are still failing to stop them.

What if you could crunch numbers on a dataset without ever actually seeing the sensitive information inside? Dr. Kurt Rohloff, co-founder and CTO of Duality Technologies, joins host Konstantinos Karagiannis to explain the wild capabilities of Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE), which allows for computation on data while it remains fully encrypted. Because FHE is built on lattice-based cryptography, it offers robust post-quantum security properties right out of the box. Learn how this technology provides end-to-end protection not just for data at rest or in motion, but for data in use. FHE effectively turns the cloud into a secure processing powerhouse where privacy will remain uncompromised even after the threat of quantum computing arrives.  From revolutionizing rare disease research by aggregating data across global medical centers to identifying international financial criminals without exposing private bank records, the real-world applications Rohloff describes are staggering. He discusses how Duality is replacing months of legal red tape and NDAs with "cup of coffee time" queries and pushing the boundaries of AI by protecting sensitive Large Language Model (LLM) workloads. Whether you're interested in the open-source OpenFHE library or the future of hardware-accelerated privacy, this episode is a deep dive into how we can democratize science and secure the AI tech stack for a post-quantum era.  For more information on Duality, visit https://dualitytech.com/. Visit Protiviti at www.protiviti.com/US-en/technology-consulting/quantum-computing-services to learn more about how Protiviti is helping organizations get post-quantum ready.  Follow host Konstantinos Karagiannis on all socials: @KonstantHacker             Questions and comments are welcome!  Theme song by David Schwartz, copyright 2021.  The views expressed by the participants of this program are their own and do not represent the views of, nor are they endorsed by, Protiviti Inc., The Post-Quantum World, or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, shareholders, or subsidiaries.  None of the content should be considered investment advice, as an offer or solicitation of an offer to buy or sell, or as an endorsement of any company, security, fund, or other securities or non-securities offering.

#345: Vibe coding works fine until your project gets complicated. That's the gap Amit Patel and his team at AWS built Kiro to fill. The tool launched with about six people in mid-2024, hit GA around October 2025, and the team still fits in a single room -- maybe a seven-pizza team by Darin's math. The core idea is spec-driven development, but not the kind where business analysts disappear for five years and come back with a document nobody needs anymore. Amit's version: you tell the agent what you want in a chat prompt, it writes the spec for you, and you iterate on it. Twenty minutes of back and forth and you've got requirements, a design, and a task breakdown. Then the agent executes. Two to three days later, working software. Here's where it gets interesting. Amit frames the human role as bookends. At the front, you define intent -- what needs to exist and why. At the back, you verify that what got built actually matches. Everything in the middle? That's where the tooling lives. And that middle is getting wider every month as agents run longer, handle more turns, and start working in parallel. But the gap between 'I can build it' and 'I built it right' is real. Amit's S3 example nails it. Ask an LLM to build a file upload app and you'll get one that works. Encryption at rest, encryption in transit, KMS, bucket policies -- none of that shows up unless you know to ask for it. The LLM will generate all of it on request. It just won't volunteer it. That's the experience gap, and it's why junior developers still need to become senior developers the old-fashioned way. One story that landed: a product manager on Amit's team used Kiro to go from conversation to working prototype overnight. Not a wireframe. Not a doc. A demo the engineering team could put into production. The roles aren't disappearing -- they're getting more fluid. The value was never in the writing. It was always in knowing what needed to be built. Kiro is now widely adopted inside AWS, with both an IDE and a CLI. Where it's headed next: agents that run in the background, handle multiple tasks at once, and get verified with formal methods instead of just hoping the output is right. But Amit's honest about the limits -- steering file adherence is, in his words, an art in itself. Non-deterministic LLMs will ignore your rules sometimes. Just like humans.   Amit's contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/amit-patel-040453/   YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox   Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/   Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/   Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/

Bret is joined by the founders of Plakar - Julien Mangeard and Gilles Chehade - to nerd out over backup engineering. The kind where you're building your own file formats and cryptographic layers, not just wiring up cron jobs. We get into how Plakar deduplicates and encrypts at the source so your cloud provider never sees your keys. Also, their snapshot model has no chain dependencies, which means you can delete any backup without breaking the others. We had a fun hour of backup horror stories, ransomware pragmatism, where I'm lobbying hard for a Docker volume integration.Check out the video podcast version here: https://youtu.be/OPRK5osKQHI

A discussion of privacy, ethics, and technology was prompted after reports that Google recovered Nest camera footage believed to be deleted. Chuck Joiner, Marty Jencius, Jim Rea, Eric Bolden, Jeff Gamet, and Web Bixby review how cloud data is actually erased, the role of backups and mirrored servers, and the difficult balance between privacy promises and aiding law enforcement. The conversation expands into broader concerns about surveillance technology, online data permanence, and how companies should handle sensitive information in critical situations.  This edition of MacVoices is sponsored by Squarespace.

This episode is an introductory guide to the fundamentals of encryption. We define essential terminology such as plaintext, ciphertext, and algorithms while distinguishing between symmetric and asymmetric cryptography. Beyond basic concepts, the source explores modern security applications like secure browsing and end-to-end messaging, alongside emerging technologies like post-quantum and homomorphic encryption. The episode emphasizes that digital privacy is a fundamental human right, protecting users from identity theft, mass surveillance, and data tampering. We highlight tools like Signal and Proton Mail to offer practical advice for maintaining digital trust in an increasingly data-driven world. The episode concludes by framing encryption as the primary defense for financial and personal safety in the modern era.

A Note from James:In the last episode, we talked about whether Martin Shkreli really deserves the label “most hated man in America.” My conclusion was no, and I hope you came to the same conclusion after hearing his perspective.In this episode, we shift gears completely. We talk about Bitcoin, crypto, AI, energy, optical computing, and what the future of technology might actually look like.Martin has a very unusual combination of skills—finance, biotech, programming—and I always enjoy hearing how he connects ideas across different fields. That's what this conversation is about.Episode Description:What happens when AI demand collides with the limits of computing power and energy?In Part 2, Martin Shkreli and James explore the future of technology—from crypto vulnerabilities to optical computing, GPU scaling, and the potential energy crisis driven by artificial intelligence.They discuss whether Bitcoin can survive quantum computing, why stablecoins solve real-world financial problems, and how computing architecture may shift beyond traditional silicon chips. The conversation then moves into AI economics: why companies might spend billions on compute to make better decisions, how energy constraints could shape innovation, and why optical computing could become the next major breakthrough.This episode isn't about controversy—it's about technological leverage, incentives, and where computation is heading next.What You'll Learn:Why quantum computing could eventually threaten Bitcoin's encryptionThe real-world advantages of stablecoins and decentralized paymentsHow AI demand could create massive new energy constraintsWhy optical (photonic) computing may outperform traditional silicon chipsHow businesses might use large-scale AI compute for strategic decisionsTimestamped Chapters:[00:02:00] Bitcoin, Encryption & Quantum Computing Risks[00:03:02] A Note from James[00:03:34] Crypto Markets: Speculation vs. Utility[00:05:23] Banking Control, Debanking & Stablecoins[00:07:40] Moore's Law, Huang's Law & The Limits of Silicon[00:08:45] Optical Computing Explained[00:09:12] NVIDIA, Parallelization & Power Consumption[00:10:24] Energy Constraints & The Electrical Grid[00:11:41] AI Energy Demand vs. Countries[00:12:24] Corporate AI Decision-Making at Scale[00:13:37] The Coming Explosion of AI Compute[00:14:20] Energy Efficiency vs. Speed[00:15:17] GPU Efficiency Improvements & Jevons Paradox[00:17:00] Why AI Is Different from Traditional Computing[00:17:47] Optical vs. Quantum vs. DNA Computing[00:18:19] Why Optical Computing Fits AI Perfectly[00:19:28] Precision, Bits & Neural Networks[00:21:24] Error Tolerance in AI Systems[00:22:00] Fiber Optics & Existing Infrastructure[00:23:16] New Computing Paradigms Beyond Silicon[00:24:00] Matrix Multiplication & AI Workloads[00:24:53] Closing ThoughtsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

None of Your Goddamn BusinessJohn Morgan Salomon said something during our conversation that I haven't stopped thinking about. We were discussing encryption, privacy laws, the usual terrain — and he cut through all of it with five words: "It's none of your goddamn business."Not elegant. Not diplomatic. But exactly right.John has spent 30 years in information security. He's Swiss, lives in Spain, advises governments and startups, and uses his real name on social media despite spending his career thinking about privacy. When someone like that tells you he's worried, you should probably pay attention.The immediate concern is something called "Chat Control" — a proposed EU law that would mandate access to encrypted communications on your phone. It's failed twice. It's now in its third iteration. The Danish Information Commissioner is pushing it. Germany and Poland are resisting. The European Parliament is next.The justification is familiar: child abuse materials, terrorism, drug trafficking. These are the straw man arguments that appear every time someone wants to break encryption. And John walked me through the pattern: tragedy strikes, laws pass in the emotional fervor, and those laws never go away. The Patriot Act. RIPA in the UK. The Clipper Chip the FBI tried to push in the 1990s. Same playbook, different decade.Here's the rhetorical trap: "Do you support terrorism? Do you support child abuse?" There's only one acceptable answer. And once you give it, you've already conceded the frame. You're now arguing about implementation rather than principle.But the principle matters. John calls it the panopticon — the Victorian-era prison design where all cells face inward toward a central guard tower. No walls. Total visibility. The transparent citizen. If you can see what everyone is doing, you can spot evil early. That's the theory.The reality is different. Once you build the infrastructure to monitor everyone, the question becomes: who decides what "evil" looks like? Child pornographers, sure. Terrorists, obviously. But what about LGBTQ individuals in countries where their existence is criminalized? John told me about visiting Chile in 2006, where his gay neighbor could only hold his partner's hand inside a hidden bar. That was a democracy. It was also a place where being yourself was punishable by prison.The targets expand. They always do. Catholics in 1960s America. Migrants today. Anyone who thinks differently from whoever holds power at any given moment. These laws don't just catch criminals — they set precedents. And precedents outlive the people who set them.John made another point that landed hard: the privacy we've already lost probably isn't coming back. Supermarket loyalty cards. Surveillance cameras. Social media profiles. Cookie consent dialogs we click through without reading. That version of privacy is dead. But there's another kind — the kind that prevents all that ambient data from being weaponized against you as an individual. The kind that stops your encrypted messages from becoming evidence of thought crimes. That privacy still exists. For now.Technology won't save us. John was clear about that. Neither will it destroy us. Technology is just an element in a much larger equation that includes human nature, greed, apathy, and the willingness of citizens to actually engage. He sent emails to 40 Spanish members of European Parliament about Chat Control. One responded.That's the real problem. Not the law. Not the technology. The apathy.Republic comes from "res publica" — the thing of the people. Benjamin Franklin supposedly said it best: "A republic, if you can keep it." Keeping it requires attention. Requires understanding what's at stake. Requires saying, when necessary: this is none of your goddamn business.Stay curious. Stay Human. Subscribe to the podcast.
