This episode was recorded for my UK Column show.Gabriel Custodiet offers a thoughtful perspective on privacy, technology, and individual sovereignty.He argues that personal sovereignty is essential in any political system—be it democracy or monarchy—enabling people to control what information they consume and which ideas they engage with. Privacy, though often overlooked, is framed as a vital shield against surveillance and a cornerstone of self-determination. Rather than treating it as an afterthought, it should be actively defended.On the topic of technology, there's a strong push for open-source software and privacy-centric tools, presented as necessary alternatives to the pervasive surveillance of big tech.The central idea is clear: by taking ownership of the tools and information we use, we reclaim agency over our lives and shape our own understanding of the world .➡️ Gabriel's website✉️ Subscribe to my newsletter

PDF AND AUDIOBOOK PACKAGE AVAILABLE HERE → https://escapethetechnocracy.com/product/privacy-and-utopia-a-history-e-book/    ADDITIONAL SAMPLE → https://youtu.be/Z-86qGSDUV4    BOOK DESCRIPTION   The more we elevate and seek out privacy, the more it seems to diminish. Such is the paradox we have inherited.   It is no coincidence that the word privacy was popularized in the 1890s as the West began its flirtation with centralization and top-down planning. The progressive pursuit of heaven on earth—of Utopia—arose from a desire to help the individual. But the individual would have to expose himself, to give up everything, in order to receive it.   Following the career of utopian philosopher H. G. Wells, this intellectual history traces the story of the first people who realized they could change the world. From the rise of the welfare state and the birth of eugenics, to the development of pharmaceuticals and refinement of psychological manipulation, the story of the early twentieth century is best told alongside the genre it alone could produce: dystopia.   BOOK REVIEWS   “Privacy and Utopia is an unexpected and fruitful examination of how privacy has been treated in literature, and how that literature has affected our world. It exposes the reasons why privacy is so aggressively opposed by those who wish to rule us. I highly recommend this book: It will surprise you!” – Paul Rosenberg, original cypherpunk   “Privacy and Utopia: A History offers a comprehensive exploration of privacy, tracing its evolution and its complex relationship with decentralization. It provides valuable insights into the ongoing struggle to balance individual autonomy with collective well-being in an increasingly interconnected world.” – Joe Doran, Trends Journal   “I had the pleasure of conversing with the author – this book continues a curiosity and engaged study of the nexus of state power, philosophy and the role of technology and I highly recommend it.” – Roger Huang, author of Would Mao Hold Bitcoin? The Past, Present and Future of Bitcoin in Techno-Nationalist China   (Music by Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio)

EPISODE #1111 THE DARK SIDE OF H.G. WELLS Richard welcomes back digital privacy expert and author Gabriel Custodiet to talk about the lesser known facets of famous British author H.G. Wells. Custodiet reveals that not only was Wells an avowed socialist but also one of the early so-called "Utopian" philosophers whose vision of man's future was rather dystopian. Wells was an advocate for greater state control, surveillance and depopulation. GUEST: Gabriel Custodiet is the host of the Watchman Privacy Podcast, which offers practical tactics to evade surveillance while also exploring the technological, political, and cultural problems that make privacy so pressing and all-compassing an issue. His mixture of tactics, philosophy, and red pilling has made his eclectic show a bit of a cult classic in the podcast world. He recently published Privacy and Utopia, an intellectual history that attempts to explain the death of privacy by looking at its most recent origin: the rise of utopianism in the late nineteenth century. He also has a privacy tutorial series called Escape the Technocracy.

EPISODE # 1109 FROM UTOPIA TO DYSTOPIA: THE VANISHING PROMISE OF PRIVACY IN THE AGE OF CONTROL In an age where privacy feels more elusive than ever, author and digital privacy expert Gabriel Custodiet takes us on a fascinating journey through the rise and fall of privacy in his groundbreaking book. From the late 19th century's utopian dreams to the dystopian realities we now face, Custodiet reveals how the very systems meant to elevate the individual—centralized planning, welfare states, and technological advancements—have eroded personal freedom. We'll dive deep into the paradox of privacy: as society promises more protection and prosperity, we are forced to expose ourselves even further. How did we get here, and can we ever reclaim our privacy? GUEST: Gabriel Custodiet is the host of the Watchman Privacy Podcast, which offers practical tactics to evade surveillance while also exploring the technological, political, and cultural problems that make privacy so pressing and all-compassing an issue. His mixture of tactics, philosophy, and red pilling has made his eclectic show a bit of a cult classic in the podcast world. He recently published Privacy and Utopia, an intellectual history that attempts to explain the death of privacy by looking at its most recent origin: the rise of utopianism in the late nineteenth century. He also has a privacy tutorial series called Escape the Technocracy.
