Mike is a twenty-year police officer and current sergeant supervising a squad of violent crime detectives. After Andrew's recent conversation with Naomi Brockwell about surveillance, encryption, and the slow erosion of privacy in the digital age, he reached out to offer respectful pushback from the other side of the badge.  How much surveillance power do police actually have? What do warrants, metadata, and phone tracking look like in practice versus online panic? And are privacy advocates sometimes overlooking the realities of violent crime investigations? A nuanced, surprisingly civil conversation about policing, technology, civil liberties, and where the balance ought to be.

THE KGB INVENTED ANTI-ZIONISM AND YOUR KID'S HISTORY TEACHER ASSIGNED THE TEXTBOOK. Thomas Massie lost the most expensive House primary in history and opened his concession speech with a Tel Aviv joke while Hasan Piker mourned. We trace the sixty-year pipeline from KGB propaganda to mandatory high school reading to the libertarian movement celebrated by its own enemies. Jennifer Welch says masculinity is fascism — a Harlem pastor says the Democrats made p*ssies out of their men. Plus Judge Napolitano on Clarence Thomas's SCOTUS dissent and Naomi Brockwell on what the government is buying about you right now without a warrant.

The third party doctrine has gutted the Fourth Amendment in the digital age, letting the government collect your data without ever getting a warrant. Cato's Nick Anthony and Naomi Brockwell of the Ludlow Institute discuss a new bill that would change that, and what you can do to protect yourself today. Hosted on Acast.

Naomi explains why privacy is fundamentally tied to human autonomy, why people underestimate the dangers of mass data collection, and how governments and corporations increasingly normalize invasive monitoring. The conversation also explores Naomi's work advocating for privacy rights legislation, the chilling effect of prosecuting open-source developers, and the importance of making privacy tools accessible to everyday users rather than just technical communities.

And every time you plug in, you're potentially handing it a two-way connection to your phone: power going in, and your data going out.In this video, I break down why plugging your phone into random USB ports can be risky, how attackers can use these connections to steal data or install malware ("juice jacking"), and how a cheap little gadget called a USB data blocker protects you.00:00 USB Raw Dogging01:08 Why You Shouldn't Plug Into Unknown Ports03:21 Risk of Unintended Data Transfer05:22 What Is A USB Data Blocker05:56 How Does it Work08:44 The ExchangeRelying on being perfectly patched and attentive at all times is a bad strategy, especially when you can instead just block the data path and move on for less than the price of a cup of coffee.NBTV is a project of the Ludlow Institute, a 501c3 non profit whose mission is to advance freedom through technology.To support NBTV, visit:https://LudlowInstitute.org/donate(As a 501(c)(3) non profit, all donations are tax-deductible in the USA as permitted by law.)Visit our shop!https://Shop.NBTV.mediaOur eBook "Beginner's Introduction To Privacy:https://amzn.to/3WDSfkuBeware of scammers, I will never give you a phone number or reach out to you with investment advice.

As the U.S. Congress approves a short-term reauthorization of the FISA 702 surveillance program, it's more important than ever that Americans have a way to safeguard their constitutionally protected data from government spies. Matt Kibbe is joined by Naomi Brockwell, founder and president of the Ludlow Institute, to discuss the need for expanded privacy protections in the digital age. The Fourth Amendment was originally concerned with private papers and possessions, long before the internet existed, but the fact that communications are now digital should not mean that we lose the rights that the founders intended to give us. To that end, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) has introduced the Surveillance Accountability Act to rein in government spying and restore basic civil liberties to the American people.

Naomi Brockwell is the President and Founder of the Ludlow Institute, a non-profit dedicated to advancing freedom through technology. She is a privacy advocate and expert, who has come on to scare us about online privacy, and how the government can bypass the Constitution through private companies' data.

And on April 23, 2026, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) and Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) introduced this bill to the House. We gave a press conference at the Capitol to introduce H.R. 8470 — the Surveillance Accountability Act, a landmark bill designed to restore the Fourth Amendment in the digital age.00:00 - We need to stop warrantless surveillance02:04 - TOP SECRET SPYING he can't tell you about04:47 - Naomi and Ludlow's work on this bill06:09 - Modern day abuse of power08:27 - SAA puts an end to unconstitutional spying09:17 - WHAT THE FLOCK?10:01 - Fed are BUYING your data12:08 - The FISA debate misses ALL THIS SPYING13:03 - We're about to lose our country14:24 - We're running out of time before we reach panopticonThe Surveillance Accountability Act closes the loopholes, ends warrantless data purchases, and for the first time creates a private right of action allowing Americans to personally sue federal agents who violate their constitutional rights.To learn more visit:SurveillanceAccountability.comCONTACT YOUR REP AND ASK THEM TO SPONSOR THIS BILLA HUGE thank you to Free The People for providing the footage for this piece.Freethepeople.orgNBTV is a project of the Ludlow Institute, a 501c3 non profit whose mission is to advance freedom through technology.To support NBTV, visit:https://LudlowInstitute.org/donate(As a 501(c)(3) non profit, all donations are tax-deductible in the USA as permitted by law.)Visit our shop!https://Shop.NBTV.mediaOur eBook "Beginner's Introduction To Privacy:https://amzn.to/3WDSfkuBeware of scammers, I will never give you a phone number or reach out to you with investment advice.

https://youtu.be/hPALUKCaARshttps://odysee.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/warrants:8Warrants are one of the most powerful checks on government power ever invented. But in an age where your data is bought from brokers, your movements are tracked by private contractors, and your financial records are collected in bulk… the protections warrants were designed to provide have been quietly gutted.In this video, we break down how warrants actually work, why the founders were obsessed with getting them right, and what's changed in the digital era that should concern everyone.There's a part of every warrant that almost no one talks about — and it's the part that matters most. Once you understand this machinery inside a warrant, you'll never dismiss them as "just paperwork" again.00:00 The Most Important Thing You've Never Thought About01:19 What Is A Warrant?03:40 Footage Of My Ancestor, Judge Naomira Brockwulf 09:07 Why Is A Search Dangerous?14:02 The Forgotten Amendment16:01 Actual Footage of the FBI Redefining The Term "Search"16:19 The FBI Is Buying Your Data20:19 The Surveillance Accountability ActSpecial thanks to Rob Frommer and Jim Harper for all their work on 4th Amendment Protections.Here is a link to the legislation Jim Harper is currently working on: https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/billinfo.aspx?id=1667&inflect=2Stay tuned for a link to the "Surveillance Accountability Act" which will be announced this week!Brought to you by NBTV team members: Lee, Derek, Will, and Naomi.NBTV is a project of the Ludlow Institute, a 501c3 non profit whose mission is to advance freedom through technology.To support NBTV, visit:https://LudlowInstitute.org/donate(As a 501(c)(3) non profit, all donations are tax-deductible in the USA as permitted by law.)Visit our shop!https://Shop.NBTV.mediaOur eBook "Beginner's Introduction To Privacy:https://amzn.to/3WDSfkuBeware of scammers, I will never give you a phone number or reach out to you with investment advice.

https://youtu.be/-kpAFTj-x7ghttps://odysee.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/Limits-of-Privacy:1'Privacy is impractical.' 'Concessions are necessary.' 'Be realistic.' These views about becoming mainstream. And they're wrong. Here's why limits on privacy are never a price worth paying for adoption, no matter how reasonable the argument sounds.00:00 The Privacy Salon01:40 Shifting Baseline Syndrome Over Time04:30 The Machine We Built08:24 No More Compromises09:40 The Debate10:54 Privacy Enables Freedom11:20 Shifting Baselines11:54 False Company Claims12:37 Security Risks13:39 In ClosingThis debate is not about whether limiting privacy can accelerate growth. It is about whether trading long-term freedom for short-term scale is a price we should be willing to pay, and the answer is no. Because what's at stake is security, freedom, and human dignity, and the cost of losing that in society for future generations is too high.Learn More On Shifting Baselines in our previous NBTV video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXhXkXcMXyMBrought to you by NBTV team members: Lee, Derek, Will, and Naomi.NBTV is a project of the Ludlow Institute, a 501c3 non profit whose mission is to advance freedom through technology.To support NBTV, visit:https://LudlowInstitute.org/donate(As a 501(c)(3) non profit, all donations are tax-deductible in the USA as permitted by law.)Visit our shop!https://Shop.NBTV.mediaOur eBook "Beginner's Introduction To Privacy:https://amzn.to/3WDSfkuBeware of scammers, I will never give you a phone number or reach out to you with investment advice.

https://youtu.be/J8WjPA_Fc7khttps://odysee.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/Cell-vs-voip:9I just recently went to a website to set up a new account, and it wouldn't let me proceed without giving them a cell number. Not a VoIP number, it demanded a real cell number, associated with a SIM. I actually don't have one, because I don't have a SIM in my phone. On top of that, there are many reasons why someone might not want to hand out their cell number to everyone. What should someone do in a situation like this? In this video I'll explain what you can do if someone asks for your cell number, and you don't want to give it to them. We'll talk about VoIP alternatives, and different methods for keeping your data protected.00:00 Actually, I do not have a cell number01:14 Activity Linking02:26 Location Tracking03:37 No Working Number Tactic04:45 VoIP Tactic06:12 Cell Number Rental Tactic07:39 Pre-Paid SIM Tactic08:16 Why Providers Block VoIP10:57 The Cell to VoIP Trick12:58 Dispense with the FormalitiesStop handing out your real cell number by default.

https://youtu.be/SIRde_NYoCwhttps://odysee.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/Desktop-vs-computer:fModern smartphones are some of the most locked down consumer devices that have ever existed. Computers are less secure, and you downgrade your security when you link a privacy focused app, like Signal, to a less secure environment. You are effectively taking a very well protected environment, your phone, and extending trust to a much weaker one. For some people it will be worth it, but it's important to understand the tradeoffs.00:00 I Do Not Use Signal desktop00:28 How Phones Sandbox Apps01:20 Desktop Security Explained02:05 Not a Signal Issue02:26 Desktops Widen Attack Surface04:13 Hardware Backed Security Explained05:13 The Risk Explained06:14 Keep Your Phone Lean06:50 We Want to Hear From YOU!Security always collapses to the weakest link. That does not mean that Signal desktop is bad. It simply means desktops are inherently riskier environments. So the next time you link a high security tool to a less secure environment, be sure to understand the tradeoffs.

https://youtu.be/70azaXOhjpIhttps://odysee.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/PGP:4Email is closer to a digital postcard than a sealed letter, and mainstream providers like Gmail read and analyze everything that's inside. Unfortunately, email isn't going anywhere in our society because it's baked into how the digital world communicates; but luckily there are ways to make your emails more private. One tool that you can use is called PGP. In this video, I'll explain what PGP is, and show you how providers like Protonmail make it super easy to encrypt the contents of every email you send.00:00 Email Was Never Built for Privacy00:50 What is PGP02:17 How PGP Works06:43 Proton Tutorial07:03 In-Network Emails07:42 Out-of-Network Password Protected Emails09:00 Out-of-Network PGP Protected Emails10:37 Importing PGP Keys11:49 Exporting and Sharing PGP Keys12:35 How to Share Your Public Key14:56 Phil Zimmerman and The Ludlow InstitutePhil Zimmerman said in his original PGP user guide text “Why I Wrote PGP” in 1991 that: “PGP empowers people to take their privacy into their own hands. There has been a growing social need for it". That statement remains even more resounding today. The builders of privacy tools risk a lot in order to create the tools that protect us all. It's up to us to use them. Phil Zimmerman Text “Why I Wrote PGP”: https://philzimmermann.com/EN/essays/WhyIWrotePGP.htmlMy Interview with Phil Zimmerman:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NciVkd6ddPoSpecial Thanks to Phil Zimmerman for his mentorship and advisory role at the Ludlow InstituteBrought to you by NBTV team members: Lee, Derek, Will and Naomi.NBTV is a project of the Ludlow Institute, a 501c3 non profit whose mission is to advance freedom through technology.To support NBTV, visit:https://LudlowInstitute.org/donate(As a 501(c)(3) non profit, all donations are tax-deductible in the USA as permitted by law.)Visit our shop!https://Shop.NBTV.mediaOur eBook "Beginner's Introduction To Privacy:https://amzn.to/3WDSfkuBeware of scammers, I will never give you a phone number or reach out to you with investment advice.

Viewer discretion is advised.You might think privacy is optional. Something you can worry about later. But right now there is a major war against privacy being waged. If governments can arrest the people who build privacy tools, then when the day finally comes where you might need them, those tools will not exist anymore.I had the pleasure and heartache of interviewing Keonne Rodriguez, co-founder of Samourai Wallet, an open-source, non-custodial privacy wallet, who goes to prison this week because of the privacy tool he created. The whole case against him was based on the idea that privacy itself is criminal.

In an era when most Americans have put so much of their lives online, it's easy to be complacent about online privacy. We've been told that as long as we have nothing to hide, we have nothing to fear. But in fact, an increasingly powerful surveillance state is a major threat to individual liberty and to the country as a whole. Matt Kibbe sits down with Naomi Brockwell, founder and president of the Ludlow Institute, to talk about why privacy still matters and to outline several ways that ordinary people can easily safeguard their digital data. This is important, because once the government knows everything about you, it can use that information to silence criticism and stifle dissent. Even those who approve of the current administration have to imagine that at some point, someone else is going to be in power, someone who might want to crack down on all the freedoms we hold dear. Without privacy, it becomes almost impossible to push back against oppressive regimes.

https://youtu.be/Xr9l6xSrM28Platforms have one overriding goal: to keep us online as long as possible. And they've learned that nothing hooks us like outrage. But here's something many people don't realize: privacy and surveillance have everything to do with it. In this video I want to explore how surveillance is the key to polarization and how, ultimately, it's the engine that makes platform-driven polarization work.00:00 We're More Polarized Than Ever00:27 Outrage02:08 Manipulation08:47 Targeting vs Filter Bubbles10:05 What We Should DoPrivacy is our ally in this fight. The less companies and governments know about us, the harder it is for them to manipulate us. Privacy protects our autonomy in the digital age. We don't need to be led by the mob around us and be a tool in their propaganda war. It's time to reclaim our autonomy.Brought to you by NBTV team members: Lee, Derek Porter, Will Sandoval and Naomi Brockwell.NBTV is a project of the Ludlow Institute, a 501c3 non profit whose mission is to advance freedom through technology.To support NBTV, visit:https://LudlowInstitute.org/donate(As a 501(c)(3) non profit, all donations are tax-deductible in the USA as permitted by law.)Visit our shop!https://Shop.NBTV.mediaOur eBook "Beginner's Introduction To Privacy:https://amzn.to/3WDSfkuBeware of scammers, I will never give you a phone number or reach out to you with investment advice.

https://youtu.be/1PeAfNBNARIhttps://odysee.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/Doctor-privacy:4Why doesn't your doctor's office feel like a safe place anymore?Most people assume their medical conversations are private. But in the U.S., the moment your doctor enters something into your Electronic Health Record (EHR), it can be legally shared with over 2.2 million entities—often without your knowledge or consent.Did you know there are financial incentives for providers to collect as much data as possible? That's why they often document details that have nothing to do with your care that day. And if you ask your doctor not to include something in your record? You'll likely be treated as the difficult one—for simply wanting privacy.Because privacy is no longer the default. The default is feeding your most sensitive information into an opaque system designed to share it with a vast, invisible network of third parties.In this short video, I share a real story from one of our NBTV members who tried to protect her privacy—and was overruled. It's a revealing look at how medical data is handled, and how little control patients actually have.If you've ever felt uneasy during a checkup, this might explain why.00:00 The Reason For This Video00:41 What Most People Do Not Know01:50 Her Doctor DID WHAT02:38 Once Data Leaves Your Hands03:36 Healthcare Systems Are Prime Targets For Hackers05:10 What Should Happen Instead06:22 What We Can Do07:39 YOU GUESSED THE TSHIRT RIGHT!

Is your financial life really private? In this eye-opening episode, Cato Institute's Norbert Michel and Nicholas Anthony take us deep into the world of financial surveillance, starting with the 1970 Bank Secrecy Act. What was originally sold as a tool to catch tax cheats has quietly evolved into a sprawling system of government oversight—with banks and financial institutions acting as unwitting watchdogs. From suspicious activity reports to the third-party doctrine, Norbert and Nicholas explain how the erosion of Fourth Amendment protections has happened largely out of public view. They break down the law's legacy, how it expanded post-9/11, and why $10,000 isn't the large sum it once was. But there's reason for optimism. With growing public awareness, privacy-focused tech, and new reform legislation finally on the table, change might be within reach. If you thought your bank account was your business, think again—this episode will make you see it in a whole new light.Show Notes:Norbert Michel and Jennifer J.

There are data breaches every single day. Former president of Cisco John Chambers once said, “there are two types of companies in the world, those that have been hacked and those that don't yet realize they have been hacked”. We need to start taking back the narrative that these entities know what is best for our data, and our lives, or else we risk an Orwellian future we will not be able to reverse.Special Thanks to Al Jazeera and The Stream for inviting me back on the show!Watch the full episode here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dy90CrTr0i0Brought to you by NBTV team members: Lee Rennie, Cube Boy, Sam Ettaro, Will Sandoval and Naomi BrockwellNBTV is a project of the Ludlow Institute, a 501c3 non profit whose mission is to advance freedom through technology.To support NBTV, visit:https://LudlowInstitute.org/donate(As a 501(c)(3) non profit, all donations are tax-deductible in the USA as permitted by law.)Visit our shop!https://Shop.NBTV.mediaOur eBook "Beginner's Introduction To Privacy:https://amzn.to/3WDSfkuBeware of scammers, I will never give you a phone number or reach out to you with investment advice.

https://youtu.be/MtHKGaDA30ghttps://odysee.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/Techno-optimism:bIt's easy to feel pessimistic, even hopeless, about the future of privacy in a world so deeply intertwined with technology. This is because we've been tricked into thinking that powerful technology can only be wielded by powerful entities who want to spy on us.But I'm very much a techno-optimist. In this video I'll explain why I believe that we have all the tools at our disposal to write a better future. I'll also go over some groundbreaking innovations currently in development coming to our near future.In this new digital world of mass surveillance, we're far from powerless – we have every reason to feel energized and excited. For the first time, we have both the technology and the cultural momentum to take back our privacy. But we'll only win it if we stop demonizing technology, and understand that it's only by harnessing the powerful privacy tech at our disposal, building more of it, and incorporating it into our daily lives can we actually break free from our surveillance shackles.00:00 I'm a technophile.

https://youtu.be/Hcqh0ZSza50https://odysee.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/nothing-to-Hide-v7-ODYSEE-20241213-001:a“I have nothing to hide”.It's become a default response from many to overreaching surveillance.When did privacy start being about having something to hide? It used to simply be about having the right to decide for ourselves who gets access to our data. But over the past decade we've lost that choice, and so much of our personal and sensitive information is shared without our knowledge or explicit consent. In this video I want to give you a list of arguments you can use in response to anyone who dismisses the importance of privacy because they “have nothing to hide”.00:00 “I Have Nothing To Hide”01:33 Privacy is About Consent02:35 Nothing to Hide, Everything to Protect04:34 Privacy is NOT Dead05:18 Your Data Is Forever06:03 It's Not About You08:14 Uncertain Future10:10 Surveillance Stifles Creativity and Dissent11:30 Surveillance Isn't About Criminals12:29 Your Data Puts Others at Risk14:25 You Send A Signal With Your Choices16:21 A Fight We Can't Afford to LoseSurveillance is a weapon that is too often used to silence opposition, suppress individuality, and enforce conformity. Privacy is what allows us to think, act, and connect without fear. Without privacy, we lose the ability to dissent, to innovate, and to live freely. The next time someone says, “I have nothing to hide,” remind them of this: Privacy isn't about hiding. It's about protecting your rights, your choices, and your future.Brought to you by NBTV team members: Lee Rennie, Cube Boy, Will Sandoval and Naomi BrockwellTo support NBTV, visit:https://www.nbtv.media/support(tax-deductible in the US)Visit our shop!https://Shop.NBTV.mediaOur eBook "Beginner's Introduction To Privacy:https://amzn.to/3WDSfkuBeware of scammers, I will never give you a phone number or reach out to you with investment advice.
