Every listener of this show is keenly aware that they are enabling the collection of various forms of hyper-specific data. Smartphones are movement and light biometric data collection machines. Many of us augment this data with a smartwatch, a smart ring, or both. A connected scale? Sure! Maybe even a continuous glucose monitor (CGM)! But… why? And what are the ramifications both for changing the ways we move through life for the better (Live healthier! Proactive wellness!) and for the worse (privacy risks and bad actors)? We had a wide-ranging discussion with Michael Tiffany, co-founder and CEO of Fulcra Dynamics, that took a run at these topics and more. Why, it's possible you'll get so excited by the content that one of your devices will record a temporary spike in your heart rate!

After decades of generic health advice based on broad population studies, a new era of highly personalized insights is emerging thanks to the combination of consumer health devices, data science, and artificial intelligence. In this episode of the Augmented Life podcast, Michael Tiffany spoke with Dr. Ajay Bhargava, a scientist and Python programmer, who conducted a fascinating sleep experiment on someone who shared their data from an Oura ring, Apple Watch, and continuous glucose monitor, using the Fulcra platform tech.
On this episode of The Augmented Life, Michael Tiffany is joined by Dr. Chris Mason, Professor of Genetics at Weill Cornell Medicine. By studying astronauts' responses to the extreme conditions of space, Dr. Mason uncovers insights that could transform how we monitor and understand our health. The stresses of spaceflight reveal unique biological adaptations that, when closely tracked, provide valuable information not only for future space missions but for advancing personalized medicine here on Earth too. As space research pushes the boundaries of health monitoring, we're seeing a parallel rise in wearable technology and personal data collection tools. Just as astronauts benefit from precise, real-time tracking of their health, everyday individuals are gaining the ability to monitor their own biometrics—bringing us closer to a world where personal health data can drive better decisions and improve well-being.

In the 90s the term Cypherpunk became commonly used to describe a movement of coders who wanted to change the world via privacy-tools like encryption. They fought against the US government's war on encryption and won, and their legacy continues today as many of the most powerful tools we use for protecting privacy today were built by some of these early cypherpunks. I chat to 2 OG and legendary cypherpunks, Zooko Wilcox and Michael Tiffany, about the early cypherpunk years, how times have changed, and which battles remain the same today.00:00 Teaser00:58 Intro01:36 How I got into tech and privacy04:30 Havenco and Sealand10:29 Early work30:00 Cypherpunk mailing list41:20 Surveillance and Culture48:41 9/1101:06:20 Surveillance capitalism01:19:38 Financial censorship & bitcoin01:35:52 Government & Finance = Zero SumTo support NBTV, visit https://www.nbtv.media/support(tax-deductible in the US)Sign up for the free CryptoBeat newsletter here:https://cryptobeat.substack.com/Beware of scammers, I will never give you a phone number or reach out to you with investment advice.

The ad industry is making progress in the fight against ad fraud, says Michael Tiffany, president and co-founder of bot detection firm White Ops, which recently got acquired by Goldman Sach. But don’t rest on your laurels, because when fraud leaves one corner of the internet … it creeps into another. Fraud is on the rise in CTV.
White Ops is the global leader in bot mitigation. They protect more than 200 enterprises—including the largest internet platforms—from sophisticated bots by verifying the humanity of one trillion online interactions every week. The most sophisticated bots look and act like humans when they click on ads, visit websites, fill out forms, take over accounts, and commit payment fraud. They stop them. The White Ops Bot Mitigation Platform can detect, prevent and outwit bot populations of every level of sophistication. They get inside their adversaries’ OODA loops with proactive adaptation. Their unique approach to bot mitigation put them in the lead role to collaborate with the FBI, Google, Facebook and many other partners in the takedown of 3ve, one of the largest botnets ever defeated. White Ops is a pro-privacy, pro-human organization. Their privacy-sensitive code detects bots without tracking humans. And that privacy-centric approach has earned the trust of our partners and allowed us to reach an enormous global scale. Their code runs in countless websites and apps every day, affords us a footprint larger than any single anti-virus or threat detection platform on the internet. I wanted to find out more about their mission at White Ops to protect the internet by verifying the humanity of every online interaction and disrupt the economics of cybercrime. On my quest for knowledge, I also uncovered an inspiring backstory that began in 2012 in a Brooklyn sci-fi bookstore. Michael Tiffany, President, and Co-Founder White Ops, shares the story behind White Ops, The takedown of the 3ve botnet in partnership with the FBI and Google. We also discuss other more recent fraud investigations such as ICEBUCKET (Largest Connected TV botnet to date) and Terracotta.
