Podcasts about NSA

In-Q-Tel (IQT) is a not-for-profit venture capital firm established in 1999 by the CIA (originally called Peleus and In-Q-It) to rapidly tap into cutting-edge technology emerging from the private sector. While funded by the CIA and designed to support U.S. intelligence needs, IQT operates as a legally independent entity dedicated to investing in firms that can enhance the capabilities of agencies like the CIA, DIA, FBI, NSA, NGA, and others, including international partners such as the UK and Australia. Its goal is not primarily financial returns, but to identify and integrate advanced technologies—ranging from AI, biotech, and cybersecurity to space systems—into national security infrastructure, effectively bridging the gap between government intelligence demands and Silicon Valley innovation.IQT has played a pivotal role in launching and supporting high‑impact companies. For example, it provided early funding and strategic access for Palantir, helping the company connect directly with intelligence analysts and refine its data‑mining tools for real‑world use. Over the years, IQT has reviewed thousands of business plans, made hundreds of investments (some publicly disclosed, many not), and built a global presence with offices in Menlo Park, Cambridge, London, Munich, Singapore, and Sydney. Though it doesn't prioritize profit—reportedly operating at losses while being heavily funded by CIA budget allocations—it has amassed over $1 billion in assets and remains one of the most influential players in defense tech venture capital.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://theintercept.com/2022/05/05/cia-venture-capital-inqtel-spac/

After working through this week’s Pray for China cities (4:28), we jump into the topic of the day: Are Chinese students all spies? (19:05). Lastly, some stories about teaching in China (50:00).

Here's his show from last week… No, It's Not 'America First' to Import 600,000 SPIES | 8/26/25 (7:09-7:56, 14:14-29:50) https://www.podbean.com/ea/dir-8bbvi-2732e521 First, I love the Steve Deace Show for many reasons, but the ignorant takes (in the literal, not name-calling, sense) on China is not one of them: “Half a million Chinese spies getting into top universities.” “Importing 600,000 Chinese Communists. . . to preserve (financially) [our already communist and subsidized] universities?” “Less than 1,000 (US students in China)*, because apparently they care more about their institutions and culture than we do.” “How ‘bout: we don't take any Chicoms, and we make [American universities] take and train [our] students instead, and tell them they are going to lose all taxpayer funding and subsidies if they don't.” “[Make American universities great again], instead of depots for Chinese Communists.” *False: http://en.moe.gov.cn/news/press_releases/201904/t20190418_378586.html Now, before I explain more, it's worth noting in agreement that opening the door to so many foreign students is probably bad for America, just not for some of the more common reasons given (ie, Chinese students are all spies). So, are Chinese students spies? Listen to the podcast for my answers... One final quote from Steve Deace: “I cannot imagine there is a single listener or viewer to this program anywhere in America who thinks if we follow through on this, that it would be a net positive for the country. . . 0.0.” In response, here was my (unsuccessful) submission via Twitter/X to the show's Buy, Sell, or Hold segment the following day: “In the long run, the lesser number of Chinese Christian students who study in the US (some in places like NSA in Moscow, ID), will have a greater impact than the larger number of "normie" Chinese students who are blackmailed into being pro-CCP hacks.” What say you?

Content Warning: This episode contains graphic descriptions of internal autopsy procedures, causes of death, and discussions of trauma, drug use, and infectious diseases. Listener discretion is advised. In this episode, Dr. Priya and Sheryl McCollum go beneath the skin to examine what internal findings reveal about how someone lived and what ultimately caused their death. From the first incision to the final look at the neck, Dr. Priya walks through each step of the internal autopsy, showing how the lungs, liver, stomach contents and brain tissue all contribute to a complete forensic picture. It's an unfiltered look at the science behind suspicious deaths and the small but critical findings that can change the course of a case. Whether it's an undiagnosed disease or unexpected toxins, nothing gets past a thorough autopsy.

Today, Les, Bishop, and Jess unpack the surprise firing of Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Kruse, head of the Defense Intelligence Agency, alongside other senior military leaders last Friday. Reports have linked Kruse's ouster to the disputed assessment of U.S. strikes on Iran's nuclear program—where the DIA judged damage as temporary while President Trump declared Iran's capabilities “obliterated.” The shakeups follow other recent removals at NSA, the Joint Chiefs, and even senior analysts, raising questions about politicization and the long-term health of America's intelligence apparatus.Are these firings about accountability—or loyalty? With quiet clearance revocations and reports of reduced intel-sharing with allies, are we weakening our ability to respond to adversaries like Iran, Russia, and China? And should we give the administration the benefit of the doubt, or are these purges creating more risk than resolve?Check out these stories that helped shape our Fellows' discussion: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c2dj217z2w6o https://www.reuters.com/world/us/latest-purge-hegseth-removes-head-pentagon-intelligence-agency-other-senior-2025-08-22/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2025/08/22/defense-intelligence-agency-kruse-fired-hegseth/ @NotTVJessJones@LesterMunson@BishopGarrisonLike what we're doing here?

A skeleton in the woods. A decade-old missing persons case. No clothing, no wallet—just scattered bones, a handgun, and one unusual clue: a custom brass belt buckle engraved with an eagle. It was the one thing friends and family could describe without hesitation, and it was all Dr. Priya Banerjee needed to confirm an identity and bring long-awaited closure. In this episode, Dr. Priya Banerjee joins Sheryl McCollum to explore how jewelry, tattoos, piercings, and other personal effects can crack a case wide open. From thin gold chains to infrared-revealed tattoos, shotgun-damaged accessories to telling purse contents, Dr. Priya recounts cases proving that meticulous documentation isn’t just procedure—it’s often the key to solving cases.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Show (08/14/2025): 3:05pm- Earlier this week, President Donald Trump announced a 30-day federal takeover of Washington D.C.'s police department—while simultaneously deploying 800 National Guard troops—to fight violent crime in the nation's capital. At the White House press briefing, Trump announced Attorney General Pam Bondi will oversee the federal takeover—while Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth will provide military support “if needed.” Additionally, the administration will assign 120 F.B.I. agents to conduct nighttime patrols throughout Washington D.C. While progressive politicians have attacked the Trump Administration over the decision, even MSNBC is now conceding that there is a serious crime problem that needs to be addressed. Has President Trump forced progressives into defending crime? 3:30pm- It's Justin's birthday today! 3:35pm- On Thursday, President Donald Trump celebrated the 90th anniversary of Social Security where he addressed erroneous claims made by Senator Elizabeth Warren that the administration is destroying Social Security—“she's a mean, horrible human being” and has a history of lying. 3:40pm- While speaking with the press, President Donald Trump said that if Friday's meeting with Vladimir Putin does not go well and there is no clear sign of a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine, Russia will face “very severe consequences” in the form of onerous sanctions. 3:50pm- Rich is scheduled to be on Fox News immediately after tomorrow's show in Cape May. Matt is helping out by crafting talking points—so, does that mean Justin has to do Rich's makeup? Plus, what's Rich's latest medical ailment? You'll never guess! 4:05pm- Is “woke” permanently dead? Don't count it. Conservatives may have won the battle over Sydney Sweeny's jeans—but progressives will almost certainly rally around another social justice issue in the future. 4:15pm- While speaking with podcaster Aaron Parnas, Sen. Chuck Schumer insisted that crime is not a problem in Washington D.C.: “I walk around D.C. all the time…I feel perfectly safe.” But not everyone has bodyguards and a fleet of armed vehicles following them like the Senate Minority Leader! 4:35pm- Brooke Singman—Political Correspondent & Reporter for Fox News—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss her latest report: “Clapper allegedly pushed to 'compromise' 'normal' steps to rush 2017 ICA, despite concerns from NSA director.” She writes: “Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper allegedly directed officials to ‘compromise' ‘normal' procedures to rush a politicized 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment—despite concerns from then-Director of the National Security Agency Mike Rogers, who allegedly said his team did not have ‘enough time' to review the intelligence to be ‘absolutely confident' that Russia was involved in the 2016 election.” You can read the full article here: https://www.foxnews.com/politics/clapper-pushed-compromise-normal-steps-rush-2017-ica-despite-concerns-from-nsa-director. 5:05pm- George Bochetto—Former candidate for U.S. Senate, former Pennsylvania State Boxing Commissioner, and Attorney at Bochetto & Lentz, P.C.—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss a statue of former Philadelphia Mayor Frank Rizzo being returned the group that originally donated it following a ruling by the Philadelphia Art Commission. 5:25pm- First Lady Melania Trump is threatening to sue Hunter Biden for $1 billion over false claims regarding Jeffrey Epstein. 5:30pm- Daniel Turner—Founder and Executive Director of Power The Future—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to preview tomorrow's meeting between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin in Alaska. 6:05pm- While speaking with the press, President Donald Trump said that if Friday's meeting with Vladimir Putin does not go well and there is no clear sign of a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine, Russia will face “very severe consequences” in the form of onerous sanctions. 6:30pm- Earlier this ...

01:02:26 – Nixon Ends the Gold Standard: A Controlled Demolition of the DollarMarking the anniversary of August 15, 1971, the host recounts how Nixon severed the dollar's tie to gold, ending the Bretton Woods system. He details the lead-up, including the removal of silver from U.S. coinage, France's gold repatriation under De Gaulle, and the resulting shift from a stable bi-metallic economy to a fiat system fueling inflation, de-industrialization, and wealth transfer. 01:17:13 – De-Industrialization, Debt Expansion, and the Rise of Crony CapitalismExplains how taking the dollar off gold dovetailed with free trade policies and the 1973 formation of the Trilateral Commission. America's manufacturing base was hollowed out, trade surpluses ended, and debt skyrocketed from $371 billion in 1971 to $37 trillion today. The conversation ties this to corporate consolidation, zombie companies kept alive by central bank policy, and a rigged system benefiting elites. 01:22:33 – The Petrodollar's Decline and Global De-DollarizationReviews the 1970s Kissinger-brokered petrodollar agreement with Saudi Arabia, its quiet disappearance last year, and the shift toward multi-currency oil sales. Discusses BRICS expansion, the ruble's rebound after being gold-linked in 2022, and the dollar's shrinking share of global trade from 53% to the low 40s. Notes that central banks are hoarding gold over their own currencies. 01:44:06 – National Security State Origins and the Truman LegacyReads and comments on a Lou Rockwell article tracing the 1947 creation of the CIA, NSA, and the modern national security state. Argues that Truman's policies institutionalized interventionism, subverted the republic's founding principles, and laid the groundwork for perpetual war and surveillance. Links these shifts to Israel's 1948 recognition, Cold War militarization, and the influx of Nazi scientists under Operation Paperclip. 01:52:06 – The 80-Year Cycle, Operation Paperclip, and Cultural TransformationReflects on how the summer of 1947 reshaped U.S. governance through security agencies, covert power structures, and foreign entanglements. Notes the cultural influence of imported Nazi scientists, with Wernher von Braun as a public face, and draws connections to Cold War propaganda and the militarization of space. 02:00:58 – JFK's Secret Societies SpeechReading and analysis of JFK's 1961 warning about “secret societies” and “monolithic conspiracies,” framing it as timeless advice against government secrecy and press complicity. 02:07:44 – Operation Paperclip & Nazi InfluenceReview of how former Nazi scientists were integrated into U.S. programs after WWII, influencing aerospace, weapons development, and Cold War strategy, with Wernher von Braun as a central figure. 02:15:39 – CIA & MKUltra OriginsExposes early CIA abuses, including the MKUltra mind-control program, as part of a broader national security state agenda to manipulate populations and undermine dissent. 02:47:09 – Trump, Tariffs, and Trade RisksCritiques Trump's tariff strategy as potentially damaging to consumers and allies, warning it could backfire by pushing more nations toward BRICS-style trade blocs. 03:07:17 – NASA Moon Base Plans & Apollo SkepticismNASA's push for a 100-kilowatt lunar reactor sparks analysis of the Artemis program, U.S.–China competition, and a deeper dive into why America hasn't returned to the moon in decades, despite having done so multiple times in the past. 03:33:56 – Space Race & Global Power ShiftReflection on how space exploration intersects with geopolitical changeovers, comparing today's “fourth turning” to post-WWII institution building, and speculating on the existence of a secret space program. 03:45:54 – Red Heifer Prophecy & Third TempleMr. Anderson connects current events in Israel to biblical prophecy, questioning modern evangelical support for temple reconstruction and warning about theological and political implications. 03:50:56 – Decline of Religious ActivismCritique of modern Christian leadership for failing to visibly oppose cultural trends such as the transgender movement, contrasting this with past Catholic and evangelical activism. 03:58:52 – Gold Standard Anniversary & Fiat Currency WarningMarking the anniversary of Nixon taking the U.S. off the gold standard, the host warns about the destructive effects of fiat currency and urges listeners to consider precious metals.

Notes the cultural influence of imported Nazi scientists, with Wernher von Braun as a public face, and draws connections to Cold War propaganda and the militarization of space. 02:00:58 – JFK's Secret Societies SpeechReading and analysis of JFK's 1961 warning about “secret societies” and “monolithic conspiracies,” framing it as timeless advice against government secrecy and press complicity. 02:07:44 – Operation Paperclip & Nazi InfluenceReview of how former Nazi scientists were integrated into U.S. programs after WWII, influencing aerospace, weapons development, and Cold War strategy, with Wernher von Braun as a central figure. 02:15:39 – CIA & MKUltra OriginsExposes early CIA abuses, including the MKUltra mind-control program, as part of a broader national security state agenda to manipulate populations and undermine dissent. 02:47:09 – Trump, Tariffs, and Trade RisksCritiques Trump's tariff strategy as potentially damaging to consumers and allies, warning it could backfire by pushing more nations toward BRICS-style trade blocs. 03:07:17 – NASA Moon Base Plans & Apollo SkepticismNASA's push for a 100-kilowatt lunar reactor sparks analysis of the Artemis program, U.S.–China competition, and a deeper dive into why America hasn't returned to the moon in decades, despite having done so multiple times in the past. 03:33:56 – Space Race & Global Power ShiftReflection on how space exploration intersects with geopolitical changeovers, comparing today's “fourth turning” to post-WWII institution building, and speculating on the existence of a secret space program. 03:45:54 – Red Heifer Prophecy & Third TempleMr. Anderson connects current events in Israel to biblical prophecy, questioning modern evangelical support for temple reconstruction and warning about theological and political implications. 03:50:56 – Decline of Religious ActivismCritique of modern Christian leadership for failing to visibly oppose cultural trends such as the transgender movement, contrasting this with past Catholic and evangelical activism. 03:58:52 – Gold Standard Anniversary & Fiat Currency WarningMarking the anniversary of Nixon taking the U.S. off the gold standard, the host warns about the destructive effects of fiat currency and urges listeners to consider precious metals.

As the legacy media completely ignore the Obama-inspired Russia collusion hoax bombshell, Kash Patel uncovers new emails proving Obama Deputy AG Sally Yates ordered FBI agents to "shut down" a criminal corruption probe into the Clinton Foundation. Tulsi Gabbard drops her own new bombshell as emails suggest former DNI James Clapper called the Russia Collusion takedown of Donald Trump a "team sport" and encouraged the FBI, CIA, NSA and ODNI to "compromise" and work together to thwart the will of the American people.

The truth is finally here. We break down the explosive declassified documents that prove the entire Russia collusion narrative was a fake "team sport" designed to frame Donald Trump. We reveal how a federal contractor hired by Hillary Clinton's campaign created fake online traffic, and how intelligence agencies, led by James Clapper, pressured agents to sign off on a lie they knew was fraudulent. You'll hear the shocking email from the head of the NSA demanding to see the evidence—and being told "no." This is the inside story of the biggest lie ever told and how it was designed to indict a sitting president.

In this episode of The Annoyed Adult, Howard tackles three burning (and sometimes stinky) questions. First, should you warn parents your kid is in your class, or just teach like a pro and let them figure it out? Then, the absolute insanity of a principal banning staff from taking a dump in the office bathroom—yes, really. Finally, a young adult wants to escape Dad's full-blown NSA-level phone tracking. Spoiler: if it's free, your privacy isn't.

Chuck Todd delivers a searing indictment of American democracy's collapse as Trump agrees to a Putin summit in Alaska without including Ukraine's Zelenskyy, while both parties abandon constitutional principles in favor of a destructive "cold civil war" over redistricting and power. He warns that Trump's desperation for a peace deal with Putin poses enormous dangers, while Republicans openly flout the Constitution and Democrats have taken the bait to "fight fire with fire" in an immoral game that betrays the founders' vision of preventing both kingship and tyranny of the majority. He argues that constitutional guardrails only work when enforced, and that leaders are capitulating to Trump and refusing to use the tools the founders provided. Then, Pulitzer Prize-winning author and intelligence expert Tim Weiner joins Chuck for a devastating assessment of how Trump's appointment of "crackpots" to lead America's national security apparatus threatens catastrophic intelligence failures and the potential collapse of democratic institutions. Weiner warns that figures like John Ratcliffe, who has worked to absolve Russia of election interference, and Tulsi Gabbard, whom he describes as an "agent of influence" for the Kremlin, represent unprecedented political bias at intelligence agencies that could lead Trump to declare martial law and cancel elections if another attack occurs. He argues that Trump has taken a "wrecking ball to national security," systematically destroying the trust that serves as the "only currency" in intelligence work, while allied agencies now hesitate to share critical information about Russia and other threats with an administration they cannot trust.The conversation explores the broader implications of Trump's intelligence appointments, from Marco Rubio putting his "manhood in a blind trust" to serve Trump, to Ratcliffe's exposure of CIA agents recruited during Biden's tenure, making DOGE staffers prime targets for Chinese intelligence operations. Weiner details how China seeks to project its surveillance state into America while Russia continues its aggressive expansion, warning that Putin will attack the Baltics if allowed to keep Ukrainian territory. The episode also delves into the CIA's evolution since the Cold War, their departure from secret prisons, the agency's struggles with cyber capabilities compared to the NSA, and why conspiracy theories—including persistent questions about JFK assassination files—could contribute to democracy's death, even as Weiner definitively states that the CIA didn't kill Kennedy while acknowledging the agency's fear of revealing their Oswald connections.Finally, he answers listeners' questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment!Timeline:(Timestamps may vary based on advertisements)00:00 Introduction03:30 Trump agrees to summit with Putin in Alaska05:30 Western democracies on edge ahead of summit06:15 Zelenskyy should be at the summit07:30 The danger is Trump wants a peace deal too badly08:45 Redistricting war is a sign of a cold civil war09:30 Trump and Republicans are flouting the constitution11:00 The Democrats response of “fight fire with fire”13:00 If Democrats go low, then Trump wins14:00 Founders feared a king and tyranny of the majority15:30 The founders gave us tools, people in power refuse to use them17:00 Congressional Republicans have refused to perform oversight19:00 Guardrails only work if they're used and enforced20:00 Everyone is capitulating to Trump22:30 Democrats have taken the bait, will play Trump's immoral game24:15 The founding fathers would be appalled25:45 RFK Jr.'s decision will kill people, and they still won't impeach him27:15 Leaders in both parties are failing the people30:30 Fancis Collins desperate to communicate public health tragedy31:30 It will take years to undo damage RFK has done to health and science32:30 Vaccine disinfo led to shooting at the CDC35:15 Tech companies allowed Kennedy's terrible ideas to spread37:00 Kennedy has committed multiple impeachable offenses38:30 Tim Weiner joins the Chuck ToddCast! 40:00 Is the CIA still trying to figure out its role post Cold War? 44:45 The CIA out of the business of secret prisons 46:00 Is there regret at the CIA for their post 9/11 tactics 47:15 The people in currently in charge of national security are crackpots 49:15 Jon Rattcliffe has worked to absolve Russia of election interference 51:00 Political bias at intel agencies is at an unprecedented level 53:00 Fealty to Trump at intel agencies increases risk of catastrophic failure 53:45 How Trump would react if another attack happened 54:45 Trump could use an attack to declare martial law, cancel elections 56:15 Is intelligence sharing with allies at huge risk now? 58:00 The CIA relies on friendly foreign intelligence services 59:15 Allied agencies would hesitate to share intel on Russia with Gabbard 1:00:00 Trump has taken a wrecking ball to national security 1:01:00 If Putin gets to keep a piece of Ukraine, he'll attack the Baltics 1:02:45 What to make of Trump's bromance with Putin? 1:03:45 Trump isn't Putin's agent, he's Putin's ally 1:05:00 Tulsi Gabbard acts as an "agent of influence" for the Kremlin 1:06:15 Trump has ordered intel & DOJ to cook up investigation of Obama 1:07:30 Is Marco Rubio the only hope for the intel community? 1:09:00 Rubio put his manhood in a blind trust and gave Trump the key 1:10:30 Allied intel agencies can't trust anyone in Trump's cabinet 1:13:30 The CIA is not allowed to recruit foreign journalists 1:15:00 The overlap between journalism and spycraft 1:17:45 The CIA is not at all like what you see in the movies 1:20:00 Has the CIA penetrated China the same way they have Russia? 1:21:45 The CIA built a network of agents in China, but they were caught 1:24:15 Ratcliffe fired and exposed the agents recruited during Biden's tenure 1:25:15 DOGE staffers are huge targets for Chinese intel 1:27:30 Chinese intel vs Russian intel 1:28:45 China wants to project their surveillance state into the U.S. 1:30:15 Is the CIA as forward leaning in cyber as the NSA? 1:32:30 William Burns understood the CIA's mission best 1:34:15 Which CIA directors would have warned the world of Russian invasion? 1:37:00 Why does the CIA fight the release of the JFK files? 1:40:45 Conspiracy theories could contribute to the death of democracy 1:42:00 CIA afraid of their Oswald ties? 1:44:00 The CIA didn't kill Kennedy 1:45:15 Chuck's thoughts on interview with Tim Weiner 1:46:45 Colts have been in Indy longer than they were in Baltimore 1:48:00 Mariano Rivera tears his achilles 1:49:00 Nats win 2 out of 3 against Giants 1:51:15 Ask Chuck 1:51:30 How did the U.S. and E.U. drift apart diplomatically? 1:57:15 How was Trump's mental decline been missed by media 1:59:15 How should Democrats fight back against redistricting? 2:00:30 How do you know so much about individual districts?

Your Stupid Minds jumps right on the zeitgeist to cover possibly one of the worst movies of 2025. Released just a week ago on Amazon Prime Video, War of the Worlds (2025) asks the question "have you ever wanted to see the classic H.G. Wells story adapted into a 90 minute Microsoft Teams meeting?" And the answer from the public is a resounding "NO!" We should also note this movie was shot in 2020 using COVID protocols, and it shows. William Radford (Ice Cube) is NSA's only employee. When he isn't using government resources to spy on his daughter Faith's (Iman Benson) fridge, or uninstalling Counter-Strike from his son David's (Henry Hunter Hall) Steam account, he's trying to catch a hacker known as "Disruptor." He thinks he's pinpointed his location by copy/pasting his IP out of his YouTube video's source code (lol) and a task force comes to a building to take him down. Of course, if you've seen the title of this movie, you know none of this matters, because aliens invade and blow up a bunch of landmarks with meteors. The invaders are after data, trying to suck out all the data from the world's servers so they can become more powerful. With the help of his family and NASA friend Sandra (Eva Longoria), William uses all the apps available to him to save the world. Of course, he needs a little help from Faith's boyfriend Mark (Devon), an Amazon driver who uses his elite delivery skills to send William a flash drive packed with alien-killing viruses to his location using a drone. Did we mention this movie is on Prime Video? Will they save the world? Will Mark get promoted to a golden pee bottle? Will you throw up from the camera swirling across a computer screen at 3,000 miles per hour? You'll have to listen to find out! But please don't watch the movie.

Send us a textWe begin by exploring foundational security principles that drive effective system design. Threat modeling emerges as a proactive approach for identifying vulnerabilities before implementation, while least privilege ensures users have only the access they absolutely need. Defense in depth creates those crucial security layers that prevent single points of failure from becoming catastrophic breaches. The podcast clarifies how secure defaults and fail-secure mechanisms ensure systems remain protected even during unexpected circumstances.The security models section demystifies complex concepts like Bell-LaPadula (no read up, no write down) and Biba (no read down, no write up), providing clear distinctions between these often-confused frameworks. You'll gain clarity on when and why each model applies to different security priorities—whether confidentiality in Bell-LaPadula or integrity in Biba. Other essential models covered include Clark-Wilson, Brewer-Nash (Chinese Wall), and State Machine models.Memory protection emerges as a crucial technical component, with explanations of buffer overflows, dangling pointers, and other vulnerabilities that can compromise system integrity. The practical countermeasures discussed—Data Execution Prevention (DEP), Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR), and secure coding practices—provide actionable knowledge for preventing memory-based attacks.The episode also highlights the NSA's recent release of "Elite Wolf," a repository of signatures and analytics for operational technology networks. This timely information underscores the growing importance of securing industrial control systems, which have historically received less security attention despite their critical nature.Whether you're preparing for the CISSP exam or looking to strengthen your security architecture knowledge, this episode provides the structured approach and key concepts you need.

Primeramente sería interesante habla de la definición de inteligencia y una explicación podría ser: “La inteligencia se define como la capacidad de entender, comprender y aplicar conocimientos, razonar, resolver problemas y adaptarse al entorno.” Tener en cuenta que en todos los mitos creacionistas siempre que se le da al hombre el alito de vida se le da la inteligencia. En el Génesis, Dios sopla en la nariz de Adán y este se convierte en un “alma viviente”. Pero ese aliento no es solo oxígeno...es inteligencia, capacidad de nombrar las cosas, de distinguir, de elegir. Si eso es inteligencia ¿ la IA que es? Una definición que nos dan es; Disciplina científica que se ocupa de crear programas informáticos que ejecutan operaciones comparables a las que realiza la mente humana. Como el aprendizaje y el razonamiento lógico.Pero hay dos capacidades críticas que siguen siendo exclusivas de los seres humanos: la auténtica invención y la creatividad, por eso la verdadera AGI todavía no la tenemos ( Me refiero al comun de los mortales, los dueños del cortijo no lo sabemos) Otra cosa bien distinta es el conocimiento, que puede ha veces también traer problemas, como veremos más adelante. Y siempre un conocimiento superior da ventaja a aquel que lo posee sobre el que no. El Poder, detrás del velo de la IA y de la Agenda Transhumanista. No es una simple mejora tecnológica, sino un proyecto milenario y oscuro para someter a la humanidad a un control total, utilizando la programación mental y los rituales como herramientas fundamentales para transformar a los humanos en seres dóciles y previsibles. El transhumanismo no busca mejorar a la humanidad, sino "restar", es decir, crear una infrahumanidad funcional y dócil. En lugar de sumar, el proyecto consistiría en una especie de ingeniería inversa: tomar lo mejor del ser humano (la inteligencia colectiva, la creatividad, el libre albedrío) y limitarlo para crear un "esclavo más eficaz". Es un proyecto de dos caras. Mientras una élite minoritaria se convierte en suprahumanidad (eugenismo), la mayoría de la población es degenerada a una condición de infrahumanidad (disgenismo), convirtiéndose en una especie de zombis que alimentan el sistema con su energía vital. Robotización del humano frente a humanización del robot. la cuestión crucial no es la humanización del robot (es decir, hacer que los robots parezcan humanos), sino la robotización del humano. Esta robotización no significa parecerse a una máquina, sino comportarse de una manera "inhumana": sin libertad, sin sentimientos, sin creatividad, sin preguntarse por el sentido de la vida. Hablar de IA es hablar de una tecnología clave y disruptiva que va a alterar numerosos aspectos de nuestras vidas. Pero hay que dejar algo claro: esta tecnología está siendo manejada y dosificada por el poder real, los verdaderos amos del mundo. No sabemos quiénes son, pero sí sabemos que no son las marionetas que nos ponen en escena. Sabemos, eso sí, que son los mismos que manejan la liquidez del sistema monetario internacional, creando ciclos de crisis y orden de los que siempre sacan provecho. Existe un poder oculto, también conocido como “Estado profundo”, que canaliza de forma importante los flujos emocionales y energéticos de la sociedad. Utilizan técnicas ancestrales y conocimientos transmitidos entre iniciados, que se centran, entre otras cosas, en conseguir el control social de la forma más práctica y económica posible para ellos. A la vista de todos, usan a líderes y estrellas como arquetipos para los no iniciados, desde presidentes hasta directivos de grandes empresas. Al mismo tiempo, en el "obscenario" y apartados de la vista de todos, realizan otros rituales donde lo sincronizan todo según sus creencias, donde siempre hablan de la LUZ, aquella que robó Prometeo y mirar el infierno que le tocó padecer después de adquirir el conocimiento que los dioses no querían que tuviera. Lo que es crucial entender es que estas tecnologías tan relevantes están siendo planificadas, manejadas y dosificadas desde el mismo centro del poder. Nos hacen creer que hay diferentes empresas que compiten entre sí por el mercado, pero esa disputa escenificada no es real. Todas trabajan para los mismos amos, con un objetivo ya marcado: avanzar en su agenda a medida que la sociedad normaliza sus ideas. Este es el primer punto clave: la relación entre la IA y el transhumanismo. Debemos abordar este concepto porque la fusión hombre-máquina es uno de los objetivos de la agenda de control. Buscan crear un tipo de “ser híbrido”, sin alma y fácil de controlar. Un futuro distópico que podría cumplirse si no nos oponemos a ello. El momento crucial para la consecución de sus objetivos sería cuando, una vez normalizado el asunto, consigan fabricar "humanos" mediante vientres artificiales. Con esto, tendrían solucionado el tema del control social. Podrían hacer "impresiones de andróginos" en la medida que los necesiten, igual que emiten el dinero que quieren. Serían personas desarraigadas, sin familia, sin descendencia y quizás incluso sin genitales. Su inteligencia estaría genéticamente limitada según la tarea que deban desempeñar. Podrían incluso crear emisiones especiales de híbridos con electrónica insertada en su organismo, conectados a redes y potenciados en sus capacidades, lo que supondría un grado de control inimaginable. Pero esperemos que la sociedad reaccione y evite estos peligros. Ahora que hemos enmarcado la situación, es hora de pasar a los orígenes de la inteligencia artificial. La historia oficial nos suele presentar estos hitos como hechos aislados, para que no entendamos las conexiones ni miremos debajo de la alfombra. Pero si descodificamos la historia, veremos que la idea de la IA no es un invento reciente, sino que tiene raíces profundas en la filosofía, los mitos y las tradiciones ancestrales. La história podría empezar perfectamente con la historia de Adán y Eva y su expulsión del paraiso por la adquisición del conocimiento prohibido."Si comes de este fruto, serás como Dios. Conocerás el bien y el mal." Dijo la serpiente y Adan y eva al igual que Prometeo también acabaron castigados por Dios. En Génesis 3:22, se dice: “Ahora el hombre ha venido a ser como uno de nosotros, al conocer el bien y el mal. Que no extienda ahora su mano y tome también del árbol de la vida, y coma, y viva para siempre…”. ¿Qué tipo de conocimiento adquiere Eva? No se trata de conocimiento técnico o científico, sino algo más profundo y existencial: Conocimiento moral: la capacidad de distinguir entre el bien y el mal. Autoconciencia: al instante, Eva (y luego Adán) se da cuenta de que está desnuda. Esto implica vergüenza, intimidad, juicio propio. Libre albedrío: al desobedecer, ejerce una elección. Ya no es solo criatura, sino agente. Comer del fruto es adquirir la conciencia humana tal como la entendemos hoy: saber que uno existe, que puede decidir, y que sus actos tienen consecuencias. Las manzanas envenenadas🧙‍♀️ Blancanieves📖 Eva en el Edén🧪 Alan Turing (leyenda urbana) Se dice que murió tras comer una manzana envenenada con cianuro, aunque no está confirmado. Curiosamente, el logo de Apple con una manzana mordida ha alimentado esta teoría. 🎯 Guillermo Tell Obligado a disparar con una ballesta a una manzana colocada sobre la cabeza de su hijo. Aunque no estaba envenenada, el riesgo era mortal. Podríamos hablar de Talos el primer "androide" de la historia.Talos era un gigante de bronce, forjado por Hefesto (el dios herrero) por encargo de Zeus o de Minos, rey de Creta (según la versión). Tenía una única vena que recorría su cuerpo entero, sellada con un clavo o perno de bronce en el tobillo. En lugar de sangre, su cuerpo contenía "icor", el fluido vital de los dioses. En la edad media en el siglo XIIl el trabajo de Ramón Llull, conocido como el Ars Magna, puede considerarse un precursor conceptual de la inteligencia artificial. Mas adelante si hay tiempo hablaremos de él. En la alquimia, la idea de fabricar un "hombre artificial" o homúnculo fue explorada por figuras como Paracelso, quien describió procedimientos para su creación. Similarmente, los alquimistas islámicos investigaron el concepto de takwin, la creación artificial de vida. En Praga en el siglo XVI los judios hablan del Golem, criatura sin alma creada para servir al hombre. hecha de barro o arcilla y animada mediante palabras sagradas, la inserción de nombres divinos. Con el advenimiento del siglo XIX, estas visiones se trasladaron al ámbito de la ficción literaria. Obras como "Frankenstein" de Mary Shelley exploraron las implicaciones éticas de crear seres conscientes, mientras que "R.U.R." (Rossum's Universal Robots) de Karel Čapek, publicada en 1920, introdujo el término "robot" al léxico global, marcando un punto de inflexión en la conceptualización de las máquinas con capacidad de trabajo autónomo. Y aquí en este punto es cuando entramos en los años 50 son considerados el punto de partida oficial de la inteligencia artificial moderna. Aunque hubo ideas previas, fue en esa década cuando la IA empezó a tomar forma como disciplina científica. Aquí te dejo los hitos clave: 🔹 1950: Alan Turing y su famosa prueba Publica "Computing Machinery and Intelligence" y propone el Test de Turing, una forma de evaluar si una máquina puede pensar como un humano. 🔹 1956: Conferencia de Dartmouth Organizada por John McCarthy, quien acuñó el término "Inteligencia Artificial". Reunió a pioneros como Marvin Minsky y Claude Shannon para discutir cómo crear máquinas inteligentes. 🔹 Primeros modelos y algoritmos Se desarrollan los primeros perceptrones (redes neuronales simples) por Frank Rosenblatt en 1958. Se crean programas capaces de jugar a las damas o resolver teoremas matemáticos. 🧪 Aunque los avances eran limitados por la tecnología de la época, estos años sentaron las bases para todo lo que vino después: aprendizaje automático, redes neuronales profundas, procesamiento de lenguaje natural… ¡y hasta Hoy! Para empezar este recorrido, es fundamental detenernos en la figura de Ramon Llull, un filósofo, teólogo y cortesano del siglo XIII. Nacimiento: 1232, Palma de Mallorca, España. Fallecimiento: 1316, en el Mediterráneo. El trabajo de Llull, conocido como el Ars Magna, puede considerarse un precursor conceptual de la inteligencia artificial. Pero no es un conocimiento que se le ocurriera de la nada. Como buen cortesano y perteneciente a una buena familia, Llull era conocedor de saberes ancestrales recogidos en otras tradiciones, que simplemente se expresan de otra manera. La relación entre su trabajo y la IA moderna se basa en varios puntos clave. Para empezar, la mecanización del razonamiento. El Ars Magna partía de la premisa de que el razonamiento y la verdad podían descomponerse en principios básicos. Llull representaba estos conceptos con letras y los organizaba en figuras geométricas como círculos concéntricos que podían ser girados. El objetivo era combinar estos principios de forma sistemática para generar proposiciones lógicamente válidas, demostrando verdades de forma infalible. Esta idea de un sistema mecánico que genera conocimiento de forma automática a partir de reglas definidas es la base de los sistemas computacionales y de la IA. Es lo que podríamos llamar una "máquina lógica". En este sentido, la conexión de Llull con la Cábala y la gematría es evidente. El Ars Magna se basa en un sistema simbólico donde las letras tienen un significado profundo. Su método de combinar principios es comparable a las técnicas cabalísticas de gematría (la interpretación numérica de las letras) y la combinación de las letras del alfabeto hebreo para obtener conocimientos ocultos. La idea subyacente es la misma: que la verdad y la sabiduría están codificadas en los símbolos y pueden ser reveladas a través de su manipulación sistemática. Podríamos decir que Llull inventó el primer "hardware" de pensamiento simbólico, aunque su "software" fuera más filosófico que informático. Mecanización del razonamiento: El Ars Magna partía de la premisa de que el razonamiento y la verdad podían ser descompuestos en principios básicos. Llull representaba estos conceptos con letras y los organizaba en figuras geométricas (discos giratorios). El objetivo era combinar estos principios de forma sistemática para generar proposiciones lógicas válidas. Esta idea de un sistema mecánico que, a partir de reglas y principios definidos, genera conocimiento de forma automática, es la base de los sistemas computacionales y la IA moderna. Los Dignidades de Dios o Principios Absolutos: Representados por letras de la B a la K, Llull consideraba que estos eran atributos divinos universales y perfectos. Son: B - Bondad C - Grandeza D - Eternidad E - Poder F - Sabiduría G - Voluntad H - Virtud I - Verdad K - Gloria Principios Relativos: Estos conceptos representaban relaciones entre los principios absolutos y se usaban para generar proposiciones lógicas. Incluyen: Diferencia Concordancia Contrariedad Principio Medio Fin Mayoridad Igualdad Minoridad Al combinar estos principios de forma mecánica, Llull creía que se podía demostrar cualquier verdad de manera infalible, creando así la primera "máquina de pensar" de la historia. El concepto de combinatoria: La obra de Llull se fundamenta en el arte de la combinatoria, explorando todas las relaciones lógicas posibles entre los conceptos a través del movimiento de sus discos. Este enfoque es un antecedente directo de la computación y la IA, donde los algoritmos y programas informáticos no son más que un conjunto de instrucciones que combinan datos y operaciones de manera sistemática para resolver problemas. Lenguaje y símbolos artificiales: Llull creó un alfabeto artificial de nueve letras para representar y manipular conceptos. De manera similar, la IA se construye sobre lenguajes de programación, que son sistemas simbólicos con reglas precisas diseñados para que las máquinas puedan procesar información y ejecutar operaciones de forma estructurada. En resumen, aunque el Ars Magna no era una computadora en el sentido moderno, la visión de Llull de que el pensamiento podía ser mecanizado y manipulado a través de un sistema de símbolos y reglas combinatorias es un antecedente directo de los principios que rigen la inteligencia artificial. De hecho, su influencia fue reconocida por figuras posteriores como el filósofo y matemático Gottfried Leibniz, quien también se considera un pionero de la computación. Podríamos decir que Llull inventó el primer "hardware" de pensamiento simbólico, aunque su "software" fuera más filosófico que informático. La gracia de la historia es que él quería convencer a herejes y, sin saberlo, sentó las bases para que hoy una IA te esté respondiendo Tanto la Cábala como el Ars Magna se basan en un sistema simbólico donde las letras y los números tienen un significado profundo. El método de Llull para combinar sus principios es comparable a las técnicas cabalísticas de gematría (interpretación numérica de las letras) y la combinación de las letras del alfabeto hebreo para obtener conocimientos ocultos. La idea subyacente es que la verdad y la sabiduría están codificadas en los símbolos y pueden ser reveladas a través de su manipulación sistemática. En resumen podemos entrever que Llull como buen cortesano y perteneciente a una buena familia era conocedor de conocimientos ancestrales recogidos en otras tradiciones y simplemente se expresan de otra manera. ………………………………………………………………………………………. Cleón la contracción entre clon y eón. Un eón es una unidad de tiempo geológico de escala extremadamente larga, utilizada para dividir la historia de la Tierra en los períodos más amplios. Representa miles de millones de años y es la división más grande en la escala de tiempo geológico, por encima de las eras, períodos, épocas y edades. Por ejemplo, la historia de la Tierra se divide en cuatro eones principales algunos de más de 2000 millones de años. Vivimos actualmente en el Fanerozoico que se traduce como "vida visible" o "vida evidente".

Hector, el webmaster del hilo rojo decía en un reciente programa sobre Palantir: “Palantir es el panóptico del siglo XXI. El ojo del gran hermano de Orwell.” El panoptico es un tipo de diseño que nos permite controlar un amplio espacio desde un único punto sin ser detectados. Se trata de la garita del vigilante en medio de la prisión, de la torre de control. El filósofo utilitarista Jeremy Bentham fue su diseñador, Hector nos mostró como este señor era también masón y estaba relacionado al mas alto nivel. Les dejaremos el enlace al video en la descripción del podcast. En un anterior programa de enero donde en el mismo canal analizaron que es Palantir comprobaba yo para preparar este podcast que TODAS las fuentes que presentaba @ElHiloRojoTV en su video de enero de 2025 habian DESAPARECIDO. Estamos hablando de artículos publicados en Forbes, The Guardian, Bloomberg, Financial Times, CNBC o incluso el propio MIT. En todos los casos el enlace original ha desaparecido, ojo, no digo que haya desaparecido el artículo en sí, pero han cortado el enlace original. Leo textualmente de una descripción del Hilo rojo sobre lo que es Palantir añadiendo yo algunas cosas: Creada en 2003 con el apoyo de In-Q-Tel, el fondo de inversión de la CIA, Palantir se diseñó para procesar grandes cantidades de información y hacer conexiones invisibles para el ojo humano. Su fundador, Peter Thiel, también cofundador de PayPal, ha estado siempre en la intersección entre tecnología, poder y vigilancia global. Palantir no solo analiza datos, sino que los fusiona en tiempo real: redes sociales, correos electrónicos, transacciones bancarias y hasta movimientos físicos. ¿Os acordáis del PNR? Pues esto es aún mucho más intrusivo ya que muchísimas organizaciones y países han acordado compartir sus bases de datos con Palantir. ¿Qué significa esto? Una red de control total, donde cada actividad queda registrada, permitiendo a gobiernos y corporaciones predecir comportamientos y tomar decisiones basadas en modelos algorítmicos. Palantir es utilizada por el Pentágono, la NSA, la CIA, el FBI, Interpol y gobiernos europeos y latinoamericanos. También lo utilizan grandes empresas como bancos o multinacionales. Sus herramientas se usan en operaciones antiterroristas, control de fronteras, vigilancia de ciudadanos y hasta persecución de disidentes políticos. ¿Hasta qué punto este nivel de vigilancia está transformando las democracias en estados de control absoluto? Su software ha sido utilizado en conflictos como la guerra en Ucrania, ayudando a identificar objetivos estratégicos y a procesar inteligencia en tiempo real. Palantir convierte el Big Data en un arma de guerra: soldados equipados con dispositivos conectados a su red pueden recibir información detallada sobre el enemigo en segundos. ¿Estamos entrando en una era donde la guerra es digital antes que física? A medida que más gobiernos y empresas adoptan Palantir, los límites entre seguridad, privacidad y control social se vuelven borrosos. ¿Es Palantir una herramienta para el bien o el paso final hacia una sociedad hipervigilada? ………………………………………………………………………………………. Los origenes de Palantir están en la Oficina de Conciencia de la Información ( IAO ) fue establecida por la Agencia de Proyectos de Investigación Avanzada de Defensa de los Estados Unidos (DARPA) en enero de 2002 para reunir varios proyectos de DARPA centrados en la aplicación de la vigilancia y la tecnología de la información para rastrear y monitorear a terroristas y otras amenazas asimétricas a la seguridad nacional de los Estados Unidos mediante el logro de " Conciencia de la Información Total “ o en inglés "Total Information Awareness" (TIA). Sí. La TIA, la agencia secreta para la que trabajaban Mortadelo y Filemón ha existido. La IAO se creó después de que el almirante John Poindexter , ex asesor de seguridad nacional de los Estados Unidos del presidente Ronald Reagan , y el ejecutivo de SAIC Brian Hicks se acercaran al Departamento de Defensa de los EE. UU . con la idea de un programa de concientización sobre la información después de los ataques del 11 de septiembre de 2001. Querían reunir la mayor cantidad de información de la historia. Leemos en la wikipedia: “El 2 de agosto de 2002, Poindexter dio un discurso en DARPAtech 2002 titulado "Descripción general de la Oficina de Concienciación sobre la Información" en el que describió el programa TIA. Además del programa en sí, la participación de Poindexter como director de la IAO también generó inquietud entre algunos, ya que había sido condenado anteriormente por mentir al Congreso y alterar y destruir documentos relacionados con el caso Irán-Contra , aunque esas condenas fueron posteriormente revocadas con el argumento de que el testimonio utilizado en su contra estaba protegido.” ¿A que se dedicaba esta agencia? Veamos lo que nos dice la wikipedia: “Se logró mediante la creación de enormes bases de datos informáticas para recopilar y almacenar la información personal de todos los residentes de Estados Unidos, incluyendo correos electrónicos personales, redes sociales, registros de tarjetas de crédito, llamadas telefónicas, historiales médicos y muchas otras fuentes, sin necesidad de una orden de registro. La información se analizaba posteriormente para detectar actividades sospechosas, conexiones entre individuos y "amenazas". El programa también incluía financiación para tecnologías de vigilancia biométrica que permitieran identificar y rastrear a personas mediante cámaras de vigilancia y otros métodos. Tras las críticas públicas de que el desarrollo y la implementación de la tecnología podrían llevar a un sistema de vigilancia masiva, el Congreso retiró la financiación de la IAO en 2003. Sin embargo, varios proyectos de la IAO siguieron financiándose bajo nombres diferentes, como reveló Edward Snowden durante las revelaciones de vigilancia masiva de 2013.” El pionero y más relevante programa de predictividad subjetiva fue la Strategic Subject List (SSL) elaborada en el año 2012 por el Instituto de Tecnología de Illinois, adoptado por la Policía de Chicago desde el año 2012. Ya en el año 2017, el conjunto de datos incluía a 398.684 personas. Han existido programas predictivos como Programa de Delincuentes Crónicos (2011-2019, PredPol y Operación LÁSER (Extracción y Restauración Estratégica en Los Ángeles), estos dos polémicos programas predictivos empleados durante una década por la Policía de Los Ángeles (LAPD), ahora ya desactivados por la cantidad de abusos y fallos cometidos. Dice Luis Lafont en su tesis “La policía predictiva más allá de Minority Report”: “Las empresas que desarrollan programas predictivos se escudan con frecuencia en el secreto comercial para no revelar los criterios que se siguen en la elaboración del algoritmo y evitar que otras compañías puedan copiar el software. Ello determina que los sistemas predictivos siguen de forma mayoritaria un modelo de caja negra que no explica al público en general ni a los usuarios los argumentos y razonamientos detrás de la predicción, en particular por quienes deben aplicarlas.” También en Europa, los sistemas predictivos de vigilancia policial se utilizan para anticipar y prevenir delitos mediante el análisis de datos. En Francia, el Analyst Notebook (i2AN) se emplea para combatir estructuras criminales y terrorismo, conectando personas y crímenes. En Italia, KeyCrime predice atracos analizando características de sospechosos y modus operandi. En los Países Bajos, el CAS identifica áreas de riesgo delictivo mediante mapas espacio-temporales. En Alemania, PRECOBS, SKALA y KIMPRO predicen la repetición de crímenes usando patrones geográficos. En el Reino Unido, Predpol, Gang Matrix y HART se centran en puntos calientes, bandas y reiteración criminal. En España, el P3-DSS (Predictive Police Patrolling) genera mapas de puntos calientes para optimizar patrullajes, EuroCop Pred-Crime apoya la predicción de delitos, y VioGen se enfoca en prevenir la violencia de género, mientras que un programa de la Guardia Civil predice incendios forestales mediante perfiles psicosociológicos. ……………………………………………………………………………………….

Send us a textTonight we welcome our good friend, Dr. Sean Brooks back to the show to discuss what mainstream culture believes about what they call Qanon.  Sean, will bring you up to date on what Q is really about. Could Q be members of the NSA or a Quantum computer system or both or something else? If there is a plan being played out perfectly, why should we trust this plan?  Is it possible that the plan leads us to AI control dressed as our salvation?

For Dr. Priya, the autopsy is just the beginning. What happens next can change everything for the families left behind. In this episode, Dr. Priya Banerjee joins Sheryl McCollum, to examine a side of autopsies that rarely makes headlines: the profound responsibility of communicating with families. Dr. Priya reflects on the power of empathy in the autopsy suite, the deep importance of walking families through trauma with care, and the surprising ways postmortem findings can protect the living. She shares raw personal experiences—from the loss of her own parents to advocating for grieving families left behind during COVID—and the critical role of cultural awareness, front-line staff, and honest conversations. Listeners will also learn how autopsies sometimes uncover hereditary conditions that can lead to lifesaving interventions for surviving loved ones. This is forensic pathology not just as a science, but as a service.

This episode is presented by Create A Video – Newly declassified documents show the FBI and the NSA did not believe that Russia hacked and leaked the emails of the Democrat National Committee in 2016. But that assessment was buried and a new pronouncement was made that Russia did it, despite there being no new information to support a shift. Also, the roots of the smear that Putin helped Trump win are directly tied to the Clinton campaign, with an assist from leaders in the US Intelligence Community.

Max Burns guest hosts. He has a mixed bag of topics...1. NYPD says a note found on the gunman who killed 4 in a midtown Manhattan skyscraper blamed his actions on traumatic brain injuries caused by football and the inaction of the NFL, whose headquarters he sought. 2. The head of the National Security Agency (NSA) and the NSA's deputy director have been fired. The firings were described as abrupt and occurred after reports of pressure from right-wing activist Laura Loomer who had accused the officials of disloyalty. 3. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is rumored to be quitting his current post to run for office in Tennessee. 4. Immigration Czar Tom Homan gave out some very back of the napkin math on the people his goon squads are rounding up and disappearing from the country. 5. Trump told reporters he had a falling out with Jeffrey Epstein over underage spa workers at Mar a Lago being recruited into his sexual predator enterprise. Then, Max speaks with Elaine Godfrey who is a staff writer at The Atlantic. She covers national politics. Her latest reporting documents the kind of leadership, issue-advocacy and grit the modern Democratic party needs to survive the Second Age of Donald Trump – as typified by Texan Jasmine Crockett. Next, he interviews Zoë Towns who is the Executive Director at Forward Dot U-S, where she launched the criminal justice reform portfolio in 2017 - defining its advocacy, policy, research, and philanthropic agenda. In her years since, Zoë has overseen administrative, ballot, electoral, and legislative criminal justice reform campaigns in states across the country and at the federal level. And finally, Max chats with the National Affairs correspondent for The Nation - John Nichols about current news and all things in Trumpland.

In Podcast Ep. 145, we dive into the stark transformation of the Democratic Party since the 1990s, with a monologue exposing how Democrats have abandoned the middle class for an elite-driven agenda. We analyze the robust Q2 GDP growth, debunking the doom-and-gloom narratives pushed by figures like Chuck Schumer and Amy Klobuchar. Next, we uncover the anti-Trump firing of April Doss at the NSA. We then tackle Hamas propaganda, spotlighting how outlets like The New York Times and BBC once again falsely portray Israel as starving children. Finally, we explore the irony of leftists comparing Sydney Sweeney's American Eagle ad to eugenics, while supporting Planned Parenthood, founded by a founder of the eugenics movement, Margaret Sanger.

From May 6, 2017: Three months into the Trump presidency, where does the relationship between the president and the intelligence community stand? Donald Trump is no longer quite so regularly combative in his tweets and public comments about the various intelligence agencies, but the White House-intelligence community relationship is still far from normal under this very unusual presidency. Here to ponder the question are former NSA and CIA director General Michael Hayden, former acting and deputy director of CIA John McLaughlin, and former deputy national security advisor for combating terrorism Juan Zarate, who spoke with the Washington Post's David Ignatius in a recent event at the Aspen Institute.

For decades, digital rights activists, technologists, and cybersecurity experts have worried about what would happen if the US government secretly broke into people's encrypted communications.The weird thing, though, is that it's already happened—sort of.US intelligence agencies, including the FBI and NSA, have long sought what is called a “backdoor” into the secure and private messages that are traded through platforms like WhatsApp, Signal, and Apple's Messages. These applications all provide what is called “end-to-end encryption,” and while the technology guarantees confidentiality for journalists, human rights activists, political dissidents, and everyday people across the world, it also, according to the US government, provides cover for criminals.But to access any single criminal or criminal suspect's encrypted messages would require an entire reworking of the technology itself, opening up not just one person's communications to surveillance, but everyone's. This longstanding struggle is commonly referred to as The Crypto Wars, and it dates back to the 1950s during the Cold War, when the US government created export control regulations to protect encryption technology from reaching outside countries.But several years ago, the high stakes in these Crypto Wars became somewhat theoretical, as the FBI gained access to the communications and whereabouts of hundreds of suspected criminals, and they did it without “breaking” any encryption whatsover.It all happened with the help of Anom, a budding company behind an allegedly “secure” phone that promised users a bevy of secretive technological features, like end-to-end encrypted messaging, remote data wiping, secure storage vaults, and even voice scrambling. But, unbeknownst to Anom's users, the entire company was a front for law enforcement. On Anom phones, every message, every photo, every piece of incriminating evidence, and every order to kill someone, was collected and delivered, in full view, to the FBI.Today, on the Lock and Code podcast with host David Ruiz, we revisit a 2024 interview with 404 Media cofounder and investigative reporter Joseph Cox about the wild, true story of Anom. How did it work, was it “legal,” where did the FBI learn to run a tech startup, and why, amidst decades of debate, are some people ignoring the one real-life example of global forces successfully installing a backdoor into a company?The public…and law enforcement, as well, [have] had to speculate about what a backdoor in a tech product would actually look like. Well, here's the answer. This is literally what happens when there is a backdoor, and I find it crazy that not more people are paying attention to it.Tune in today.You can also find us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and whatever preferred podcast platform you use.For all our cybersecurity coverage, visit Malwarebytes Labs at malwarebytes.com/blog.Show notes and credits:Intro Music: “Spellbound” by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Outro Music: “Good God” by Wowa (unminus.com)Listen up—Malwarebytes doesn't just talk cybersecurity, we provide it.Protect yourself from online attacks that threaten your identity, your files, your system, and your...

In January, 2022 today's guest, Mike Paciello, made his first appearance on Unstoppable Mindset in Episode 19. It is not often that most of us have the opportunity and honor to meet a real trendsetter and pioneer much less for a second time. However, today, we get to spend more time with Mike, and we get to talk about not only the concepts around web accessibility, but we also discuss the whole concept of inclusion and how much progress we have made much less how much more work needs to be done.   Mike Paciello has been a fixture in the assistive technology world for some thirty years. I have known of him for most of that time, but our paths never crossed until September of 2021 when we worked together to help create some meetings and sessions around the topic of website accessibility in Washington D.C.   As you will hear, Mike began his career as a technical writer for Digital Equipment Corporation, an early leader in the computer manufacturing industry. I won't tell you Mike's story here. What I will say is that although Mike is fully sighted and thus does not use much of the technology blind and low vision persons use, he really gets it. He fully understands what Inclusion is all about and he has worked and continues to work to promote inclusion and access for all throughout the world. As Mike and I discuss, making technology more inclusive will not only help persons with disabilities be more involved in society, but people will discover that much of the technology we use can make everyone's life better. We talk about a lot of the technologies being used today to make websites more inclusive including the use of AI and how AI can and does enhance inclusion efforts.   It is no accident that this episode is being released now. This episode is being released on July 25 to coincide with the 35th anniversary of the signing of the Americans With Disabilities Act which was signed on July 26, 1990. HAPPY BIRTHDAY ADA!   After you experience our podcast with Mike, I'd love to hear your thoughts. Please feel free to email me at michaelhi@accessibe.com to tell me of your observations. Thanks.     About the Guest:   Mike Paciello is the Chief Accessibility Officer at AudioEye, Inc., a digital accessibility company. Prior to joining AudioEye, Mike founded WebABLE/WebABLE.TV, which delivers news about the disability and accessibility technology market. Mike authored the first book on web accessibility and usability, “Web Accessibility for People with Disabilities” and, in 1997, Mr. Paciello received recognition from President Bill Clinton for his work in the creation of World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C) Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI). He has served as an advisor to the US Access Board and other federal agencies since 1992.   Mike has served as an international leader, technologist, and authority in emerging technology, accessibility, usability, and electronic publishing.

The podcast where inclusion, diversity and the unexpected meet. Hi, I'm Michael Hingson, Chief Vision Officer for accessiBe and the author of the number one New York Times bestselling book, Thunder dog, the story of a blind man, his guide dog and the triumph of trust. Thanks for joining me on my podcast as we explore our own blinding fears of inclusion unacceptance and our resistance to change. We will discover the idea that no matter the situation, or the people we encounter, our own fears, and prejudices often are our strongest barriers to moving forward. The unstoppable mindset podcast is sponsored by accessiBe, that's a c c e s s i capital B e. Visit www.accessibe.com to learn how you can make your website accessible for persons with disabilities. And to help make the internet fully inclusive by the year 2025. Glad you dropped by we're happy to meet you and to have you here with us.   Michael Hingson ** 01:21 Well, hi everyone, and welcome to another episode of unstoppable mindset where inclusion diversity and the unexpected meet. Normally, our guests deal with the unexpected, which is anything that doesn't have to do with inclusion or diversity. Today, however, we get to sort of deal with both. We have a guest who actually was a guest on our podcast before he was in show 19 that goes all the way back to January of 2022, his name is Mike Paciello. He's been very involved in the whole internet and accessibility movement and so on for more than 30 years, and I think we're going to have a lot of fun chatting about what's going on in the world of accessibility and the Internet and and, you know, and but we won't probably get into whether God is a man or a woman, but that's okay, God is actually both, so we don't have to worry about that. But anyway, Mike, welcome to unstoppable mindset.   Mike Paciello ** 02:21 Yeah, Hey, Mike, thanks a lot. I can't believe has it really been already since today, six years since the last time I came on this? No, three, 320, 22 Oh, 2022, I for whatever I 2019 Okay, three years sounds a little bit more realistic, but still, it's been a long time. Thank you for having me. It's, it's, it's great to be here. And obviously, as you know, a lot of things have changed in my life since then. But, yeah, very   Michael Hingson ** 02:46 cool. Well, you were in show number 19. And I'm not sure what number this is going to be, but it's going to be above 360 so it's been a while. Amazing, amazing, unstoppable, unstoppable. That's it. We got to keep it going. And Mike and I have been involved in a few things together, in, in later, in, I guess it was in 20 when we do the M enabling Summit, that was 2021 wasn't it? Yeah, I think it was, I think it was the year before we did the podcast, yeah, podcast, 2021 right? So we were in DC, and we both worked because there was a group that wanted to completely condemn the kinds of technologies that accessibe and other companies use. Some people call it overlays. I'm not sure that that's totally accurate today, but we we worked to get them to not do what they originally intended to do, but rather to explore it in a little bit more detail, which I think was a lot more reasonable to do. So we've, we've had some fun over the years, and we see each other every so often, and here we are again today. So yeah, I'm glad you're here. Well, tell us a little about well, and I guess what we'll do is do some stuff that we did in 2022 tell us about kind of the early Mike, growing up and all that and what eventually got you into dealing with all this business of web accessibility and such. Yeah, thank you.   Mike Paciello ** 04:08 You know, I've tried to short this, shorten this story 100 times. Oh, don't worry. See if I get let's see if I can keep it succinct and and for the folks out there who understand verbosity and it's in its finest way for screen reader users, I'll try not to be verbose. I already am being   Michael Hingson ** 04:28 intermediate levels fine.   Mike Paciello ** 04:30 I came into this entire field as a technical writer trying to solve a problem that I kind of stumbled into doing some volunteer work for the debt the company that I then then worked for, a Digital Equipment Corporation, a software company, DEC software hardware company, back then, right back in the early 80s. And as a technical writer, I started learning at that time what was called Gen code. Eventually that morphed in. To what Goldfarb, Charles Goldfarb at IBM, called SGML, or standard, Generalized Markup Language, and that really became the predecessor, really gave birth to what we see on the web today, to HTML and the web markup languages. That's what they were, except back then, they were markup languages for print publications. So we're myself and a lot of colleagues and friends, people probably here, I'm sure, at bare minimum, recognized named George Kercher. George and I really paired together, worked together, ended up creating an international steer with a group of other colleagues and friends called the icad 22 which is 22 stands for the amount of elements in that markup language. And it became the adopted standard accessibility standard for the American Association of Publishers, and they published that became official. Eventually it morphed into what we today call, you know, accessible web development. It was the first instance by that was integrated into the HTML specification, I think officially, was HTML 3.1 3.2 somewhere in there when it was formally adopted and then announced in 1997 and at the World Wide Web Conference. That's really where my activity in the web began. So I was working at DEC, but I was doing a lot of volunteer work at MIT, which is where the W 3c was located at that particular time. And Tim Bursley, who a lot of people i Sir, I'm sure, know, the inventor of the web, led the effort at that time, and a few other folks that I work with, and.da Jim Miller, a few other folks. And we were, well, I wasn't specifically approached. Tim was approached by Vice President Gore and eventually President Clinton at that time to see if we could come up with some sort of technical standard for accessibility. And Tim asked if I'd like to work on it myself. Danielle, Jim, a few others, we did, and we came up that first initial specification and launched it as part of the Web Accessibility Initiative, which we created in 1997 from there, my career just took off. I went off did a couple of small companies that I launched, you know, my namesake company, the Paciello Group, or TPG, now called TPG IGI, yeah, yeah, which was acquired by vector capital, or this bureau back in 2017 so it's hard to believe that's already almost 10 years ago. No, yeah. And I've been walking in, working in the software, web accessibility field, usability field, writing fields, you know, for some pretty close to 45 years. It's 2025 40 years, I mean, and I started around 1984 I think it was 8384 when all this first   Michael Hingson ** 07:59 started. Wow, so clearly, you've been doing it for a while and understand a lot of the history of it. So how overall has the whole concept of web accessibility changed over the years, not only from a from a coding standpoint, but how do you think it's really changed when it comes to being addressed by the public and companies and so on.   Mike Paciello ** 08:26 That's a great question. I'd certainly like to be more proactive and more positive about it, but, but let me be fair, if you compare today and where web accessibility resides, you know, in the in the business value proposition, so to speak, and list the priorities of companies and corporations. You know, fortune 1000 fortune 5000 call whatever you whatever you want. Accessibility. Is there people? You could say section five way you could say the Web Accessibility Initiative, WCAG, compliance, and by and large, particularly technology driven, digital economy driven businesses, they know what it is. They don't know how to do it. Very rarely do they know how to do it. And even the ones that know how to do it don't really do it very well. So it kind of comes down to the 8020, rule, right? You're a business. Whatever kind of business you are, you're probably in more online presence than ever before, and so a lot of your digital properties will come under you know the laws that mandate usability and accessibility for people with disabilities today that having been said and more and more people know about it than ever before, certainly from the time that I started back in the you know, again, in the early, mid 80s, to where we are today. It's night and day. But in terms of prioritization, I don't know. I think what happens quite often is business value proposition. Decisions get in the way. Priorities get in the way of what a business in, what its core business are, what they're trying to accomplish, who they're trying to sell, sell to. They still view the disability market, never mind the blind and low vision, you know, market alone as a niche market. So they don't make the kind of investors that I, I believe that they could, you know, there's certainly, there are great companies like like Microsoft and and Google, Amazon, Apple, you know, a lot of these companies, you know, have done some Yeoman work at that level, but it's nowhere near where it should be. It just absolutely isn't. And so from that standpoint, in where I envision things, when I started this career was when I was in my 20 somethings, and now I'm over now I'm over 60. Well over 60. Yeah, I expected a lot more in, you know, in an internet age, much, much more.   Michael Hingson ** 11:00 Yeah, yeah. Well, it's it's really strange that so much has happened and yet so much hasn't happened. And I agree with you, there's been a lot of visibility for the concept of accessibility and inclusion and making the the internet a better place, but it is so unfortunate that most people don't know how to how to do anything with it. Schools aren't really teaching it. And more important than even teaching the coding, from from my perspective, looking at it more philosophically, what we don't tend to see are people really recognizing the value of disabilities, and the value that the market that people with disabilities bring to the to the world is significant. I mean, the Center for Disease Control talks about the fact that they're like up to 25% of all Americans have some sort of disability. Now I take a different approach. Actually. I don't know whether you've read my article on it, but I believe everyone on the in the in the world has a disability, and the reality is, most people are light dependent, but that's as much a disability as blindness. Except that since 1878 when Thomas Edison invented the light bulb. We have focused nothing short of trying to do everything we can to improve light on demand for the last 147 years. And so the disability is mostly covered up, but it's still there.   Mike Paciello ** 12:37 You know, yeah, and I did read that article, and I couldn't agree with you more. In fact, I personally think, and I actually have my own blog coming out, and probably later this month might be early, early July, where I talk about the fact that accessibility okay and technology really has been all along. And I love the fact that you call, you know, you identified the, you know, the late 1800s there, when Edison did the the light bulb, Alexander Graham Bell came up with, you know, the telephone. All of those adventures were coming about. But accessibility to people with disabilities, regardless of what their disability is, has always been a catalyst for innovation. That was actually supposed to be the last one I was going to make tonight. Now it's my first point because, because I think it is exactly as you said, Mike, I think that people are not aware. And when I say people, I mean the entire human population, I don't think that we are aware of the history of how, how, because of, I'm not sure if this is the best word, but accommodating users, accommodating people with disabilities, in whatever way, the science that goes behind that design architectural to the point of development and release, oftentimes, things that were done behalf of people with disabilities, or for People with disabilities, resulted in a fundamental, how's this for? For an interesting term, a fundamental alteration right to any other you know, common, and I apologize for the tech, tech, tech language, user interface, right, right? Anything that we interact with has been enhanced because of accessibility, because of people saying, hey, if we made this grip a little bit larger or stickier, we'll call it so I can hold on to it or softer for a person that's got fine motor dexterity disabilities, right? Or if we made a, you know, a web browser, which, of course, we have such that a blind individual, a low vision individual, can adjust the size of this, of the images and the fonts and things like that on a web page, they could do that unknown. Well, these things now. As we well know, help individuals without disabilities. Well, I'm not much, right, and I, again, I'm not speaking as a person beyond your characterization that, hey, look, we are all imperfect. We all have disabilities. And that is, that is absolutely true. But beyond that, I wear glasses. That's it. I do have a little hearing loss too. But you know, I'm finding myself more and more, for example, increasing the size of text. In fact, my note, yes, I increase them to, I don't know they're like, 18 point, just so that it's easier to see. But that is a common thing for every human being, just like you said.   Michael Hingson ** 15:36 Well, the reality is that so many tools that we use today come about. And came about because of people with disabilities. Peggy Chung Curtis Chung's wife, known as the blind history lady, and one of the stories that she told on her first visit to unstoppable mindset, which, by the way, is episode number five. I remember that Peggy tells the story of the invention of the typewriter, which was invented for a blind countist, because she wanted to be able to communicate with her lover without her husband knowing about it, and she didn't want to dictate things and so on. She wanted to be able to create a document and seal it, and that way it could be delivered to the lever directly. And the typewriter was the result of   Mike Paciello ** 16:20 that? I didn't know that. I will definitely go back. I just wrote it down. I wrote down a note that was episode number five, yeah, before with Curtis a couple of times, but obviously a good friend of ours, yeah, but I yeah, that's, that's, that's awesome.   Michael Hingson ** 16:37 Well, and look at, I'll tell you one of the things that really surprises me. So Apple was going to get sued because they weren't making any of their products accessible. And before the lawsuit was filed, they came along and they said, we'll fix it. And they did make and it all started to a degree with iTunes U but also was the iPhone and the iPod and so on. But they they, they did the work. Mostly. They embedded a screen reader called Voiceover in all of their operating systems. They did make iTunes you available. What really surprises me, though is that I don't tend to see perhaps some things that they could do to make voiceover more attractive to drivers so they don't have to look at the screen when a phone call comes in or whatever. And that they could be doing some things with VoiceOver to make it more usable for sighted people in a lot of instances. And I just don't, I don't see any emphasis on that, which is really surprising to me.   Mike Paciello ** 17:38 Yeah, I totally agree. I mean, there are a lot of use cases there that you go for. I think Mark Rico would certainly agree with you in terms of autonomous driving for the blind, right? Sure that too. But yeah, I definitely agree and, and I know the guy that the architect voiceover and develop voiceover for Apple and, boy, why can I think of his last name? I know his first name. First name is Mike. Is with Be My Eyes now and in doing things at that level. But I will just say one thing, not to correct you, but Apple had been in the accessibility business long before voice over Alan Brightman and Gary mulcher were instrumental towards convincing, you know, jobs of the importance of accessibility to people with disabilities,   Michael Hingson ** 18:31 right? But they weren't doing anything to make products accessible for blind people who needed screen readers until that lawsuit came along. Was   Mike Paciello ** 18:40 before screen readers? Yeah, that was before,   Michael Hingson ** 18:43 but they did it. Yeah. The only thing I wish Apple would do in that regard, that they haven't done yet, is Apple has mandates and requirements if you're going to put an app in the App Store. And I don't know whether it's quite still true, but it used to be that if your app had a desktop or it looked like a Windows desktop, they wouldn't accept it in the app store. And one of the things that surprises me is that they don't require that app developers make sure that their products are usable with with VoiceOver. And the reality is that's a it doesn't need to be a really significantly moving target. For example, let's say you have an app that is dealing with displaying star charts or maps. I can't see the map. I understand that, but at least voiceover ought to give me the ability to control what goes on the screen, so that I can have somebody describe it, and I don't have to spend 15 or 20 minutes describing my thought process, but rather, I can just move things around on the screen to get to where we need to go. And I wish Apple would do a little bit more in that regard.   Mike Paciello ** 19:52 Yeah, I think that's a great a great thought and a great challenge, if, between me and you. Yeah, I think it goes back to what I said before, even though we both see how accessibility or accommodating users with disabilities has led to some of the most incredible innovations. I mean, the Department of Defense, for years, would integrate people with disabilities in their user testing, they could better help, you know, military soldiers, things like that, assimilate situations where there was no hearing, there was they were immobile, they couldn't see all, you know, all of these things that were natural. You know, user environments or personas for people with disabilities. So they led to these kind of, you know, incredible innovations, I would tell you, Mike, I think you know this, it's because the business value proposition dictates otherwise.   Michael Hingson ** 20:55 Yeah, and, well, I guess I would change that slightly and say that people think that the business proposition does but it may very well be that they would find that there's a lot more value in doing it if they would really open up their minds to looking at it differently. It's   Mike Paciello ** 21:10 kind of, it's kind of like, it's tough. It's kind of like, if I could use this illustration, so to speak, for those who may not be religiously inclined, but you know, it's, it's like prophecy. Most people, you don't know whether or not prophecy is valid until years beyond, you know, years after. And then you could look back at time and say, See, it was all along. These things, you know, resulted in a, me, a major paradigm shift in the way that we do or don't do things. And I think that's exactly what you're saying. You know, if, if people would really look at the potential of what technologies like, you know, a voice over or, as you know, a good friend of mine said, Look, we it should be screen readers. It should be voice IO interfaces, right? That every human can use and interact with regardless. That's what we're really talking about. There's   Michael Hingson ** 22:10 a big discussion going on some of the lists now about the meta, Ray Ban, glasses, and some of the things that it doesn't do or that they don't do well, that they should like. It's really difficult to get the meta glasses to read completely a full page. I think there are ways that people have now found to get it to do that, but there are things like that that it that that don't happen. And again, I think it gets back to what you're saying is the attitude is, well, most people aren't going to need that. Well, the reality is, how do you know and how do you know what they'll need until you offer options. So one of my favorite stories is when I worked for Kurzweil a long time ago, some people called one day and they wanted to come and see a new talking computer terminal that that Ray and I and others developed, and they came up, and it turns out, they were with one of those initial organizations out of Langley, Virginia, the CIA. And what they wanted to do was to use the map the the terminal connected to their computers to allow them to move pointers on a map and not have to watch the map or the all of the map while they were doing it, but rather, the computer would verbalize where the pointer was, and then they could they could move it around and pin a spot without having to actually look at the screen, because the way their machine was designed, it was difficult to do that. You know, the reality is that most of the technologies that we need and that we use and can use could be used by so much, so many more people, if people would just really look at it and think about it, but, but you're right, they don't.   Mike Paciello ** 24:04 You know, it's, of course, raise a raise another good friend of mine. We both having in common. I work with him. I been down his office a few, more than few times, although his Boston office, anyway, I think he's, I'm not sure he's in Newton. He's in Newton. Yeah. Is he still in Newton? Okay. But anyway, it reminded me of something that happened in a similar vein, and that was several years ago. I was at a fast forward forward conference, future forward conference, and a company, EMC, who absorbed by Dell, I think, right, yes, where they all are. So there I was surprised that when that happened. But hey, yeah, yeah, I was surprised that compact bought depth, so that's okay, yeah, right. That HP bought count, right? That whole thing happened. But um, their chief science, chief scientist, I think he was a their CSO chief scientist, Doc. Came up and made this presentation. And basically the presentation was using voice recognition. They had been hired by the NSA. So it was a NSA right to use voice recognition in a way where they would recognize voices and then record those voices into it, out the output the transcript of that right text, text files, and feed them back to, you know, the NSA agents, right? So here's the funny part of that story goes up i i waited he gave his presentation. This is amazing technology, and what could it was like, 99% accurate in terms of not just recognizing American, English speaking people, but a number of different other languages, in dialects. And the guy who gave the presentation, I actually knew, because he had been a dec for many years. So in the Q and A Part I raised by hand. I got up there. He didn't recognize it a few years had gone by. And I said, you know, this is amazing technology. We could really use this in the field that I work in. And he said, Well, how's that? And I said, you know, voice recognition and outputting text would allow us to do now this is probably 2008 2009 somewhere in that area, would allow us to do real time, automated transcription for the Deaf, Captioning. And he looks at me and he he says, Do I know you? This is through a live audience. I said. I said, Yeah, Mark is it was. Mark said, So Mike gas yellow. He said, you're the only guy in town that I know that could turn a advanced, emerging technology into something for people with disabilities. I can't believe it. So that was, that was, but there was kind of the opposite. It was a technology they were focused on making this, you know, this technology available for, you know, government, obviously covert reasons that if they were using it and applying it in a good way for people with disabilities, man, we'd have been much faster, much further along or even today, right? I mean, it's being done, still not as good, not as good as that, as I saw. But that just goes to show you what, what commercial and government funding can do when it's applied properly?   Michael Hingson ** 27:41 Well, Dragon, naturally speaking, has certainly come a long way since the original Dragon Dictate. But there's still errors, there's still things, but it does get better, but I hear exactly what you're saying, and the reality is that we don't tend to think in broad enough strokes for a lot of the things that we do, which is so unfortunate,   Mike Paciello ** 28:03 yeah? I mean, I've had an old saying that I've walked around for a long time. I should have, I should make a baseball cap, whether something or T shirt. And it simply was, think accessibility, yeah, period. If, if, if we, organizations, people, designers, developers, architects, usability, people, QA, people. If everybody in the, you know, in the development life cycle was thinking about accessibility, or accessibility was integrated, when we say accessibility, we're talking about again, for users with disabilities, if that became part of, if not the functional catalyst, for technology. Man, we'd have been a lot further along in the quote, unquote value chains than we are today.   Michael Hingson ** 28:46 One of the big things at least, that Apple did do was they built voiceover into their operating system, so anybody who buys any Apple device today automatically has redundancy here, but access to accessibility, right? Which, which is really the way it ought to be. No offense to vispero and jaws, because they're they're able to fill the gap. But still, if Microsoft had truly devoted the time that they should have to narrate her at the beginning. We might see a different kind of an architecture today.   Mike Paciello ** 29:26 You know, I so I want to, by the way, the person that invented that wrote that code is Mike shabanik. That's his name I was thinking about. So Mike, if you're listening to this guy, just hi from two others. And if he's not, he should be, yeah, yeah, exactly right from two other mics. But so let me ask you this question, because I legitimately can't remember this, and have had a number of discussions with Mike about this. So VoiceOver is native to the US, right?   Michael Hingson ** 29:56 But no, well, no to to the to the to the. Products, but not just the US. No,   Mike Paciello ** 30:02 no, I said, OS, yes, it's native to OS, yeah, right. It's native that way, right? But doesn't it still use an off screen model for producing or, you know, translate the transformation of, you know, on screen to voice.   Michael Hingson ** 30:27 I'm not sure that's totally true. Go a little bit deeper into that for me.   Mike Paciello ** 30:34 Well, I mean, so NVDA and jaws use this off screen model, right, which is functionally, they grab, will they grab some content, or whatever it is, push it to this, you know, little black box, do all those translations, you know, do all the transformation, and then push it back so it's renderable to a screen reader. Okay, so that's this off screen model that is transparent to the users, although now you know you can get into it and and tweak it and work with it right, right? I recall when Mike was working on the original design of of nary, excuse me, a voiceover, and he had called me, and I said, Are you going to continue with the notion of an off screen model? And he said, Yeah, we are. And I said, Well, when you can build something that's more like what TV Raman has built into Emacs, and it works integral to the actual OS, purely native. Call me because then I'm interested in, but now that was, you know, 1520, years ago, right? I mean, how long has voiceover been around,   Michael Hingson ** 31:51 since 2007   Mike Paciello ** 31:54 right? So, yeah, 20 years ago, right? Just shy of 20 years, 18 years. So I don't know. I honestly don't know. I'm   Michael Hingson ** 32:02 not totally sure, but I believe that it is, but I can, you know, we'll have to, we'll have to look into that.   Mike Paciello ** 32:08 If anyone in the audience is out there looking at you, get to us before we find out. Let us we'll find out at the NFB   Michael Hingson ** 32:12 convention, because they're going to be a number of Apple people there. We can certainly ask, there   Mike Paciello ** 32:17 you go. That's right, for sure. James Craig is bound to be there. I can ask him and talk to him about that for sure. Yep, so anyway,   Michael Hingson ** 32:23 but I think, I think it's a very it's a valid point. And you know, the the issue is that, again, if done right and app developers are doing things right there, there needs to, there ought to be a way that every app has some level of accessibility that makes it more available. And the reality is, people, other than blind people use some of these technologies as well. So we're talking about voice input. You know, quadriplegics, for example, who can't operate a keyboard will use or a mouse can use, like a puff and zip stick to and and Dragon to interact with a computer and are successful at doing it. The reality is, there's a whole lot more opportunities out there than people think. Don't   Mike Paciello ** 33:11 I agree with that. I'm shaking my head up and down Mike and I'm telling you, there is, I mean, voice recognition alone. I can remember having a conversation with Tony vitality, one of the CO inventors of the deck talk. And that goes all the way back into the, you know, into the early 90s, about voice recognition and linguistics and what you know, and I know Kurzweil did a lot of working with Terry right on voice utterances and things like that. Yeah, yeah. There's, there's a wide open window of opportunity there for study and research that could easily be improved. And as you said, and this is the point, it doesn't just improve the lives of the blind or low vision. It improves the lives of a number of different types of Persona, disability persona types, but it would certainly create a pathway, a very wide path, for individuals, users without disabilities, in a number of different life scenarios.   Michael Hingson ** 34:10 Yeah, and it's amazing how little sometimes that's done. I had the pleasure a few years ago of driving a Tesla down Interstate 15 out here in California. Glad I wasn't there. You bigot, you know, the co pilot system worked. Yeah, you know, I just kept my hands on the wheel so I didn't very much, right? Not have any accidents. Back off now it worked out really well, but, but here's what's really interesting in that same vehicle, and it's something that that I find all too often is is the case if I were a passenger sitting in the front seat, there's so much that I as a passenger don't have access to that other passenger. Do radios now are mostly touchscreen right, which means and they don't build in the features that would make the touchscreen system, which they could do, accessible. The Tesla vehicle is incredibly inaccessible. And there's for a guy who's so innovative, there's no reason for that to be that way. And again, I submit that if they truly make the product so a blind person could use it. Think of how much more a sighted person who doesn't have to take their eyes off the road could use the same technologies.   Mike Paciello ** 35:35 You know, Mike, again, you and I are on the same page. I mean, imagine these guys are supposed to be creative and imaginative and forward thinking, right? Could you? Can you imagine a better tagline than something along the lines of Tesla, so user friendly that a blind person can drive it? Yeah? I mean this is, have you heard or seen, you know, metaphorically speaking, or that's okay, a an advertisement or PR done by any, any company, because they're all, all the way across the board, that hasn't featured what it can do to enhance lives of people with disabilities. Where it wasn't a hit. I mean, literally, it was, yeah, you see these commercials played over and over to Apple, Microsoft, Emma, I see McDonald's, Walmart. I mean, I could just name, name the one after another. Really, really outstanding. Salesforce has done it. Just incredible. They would do it, yeah. I mean, there is there any more human centric message than saying, Look what we've built and designed we're releasing to the masses and everyone, anyone, regardless of ability, can use it. Yeah, that, to me, is that's, I agree that's a good route, right for marketing and PR, good,   Michael Hingson ** 37:03 yeah. And yet they don't, you know, I see commercials like about one of the one of the eye injections, or whatever Bobby is, Mo or whatever it is. And at the beginning, the woman says, I think I'm losing sight of the world around me. You know that's all about, right? It's eyesight and nothing else. And I appreciate, I'm all for people keeping their eyesight and doing what's necessary. But unfortunately, all too often, we do that at the detriment of of other people, which is so unfortunate.   Mike Paciello ** 37:39 Yeah, you know again, not to, not to get off the subject, but one of my favorite books is rethinking competitive advantage, by Ram Sharon. I don't know if you know know him, but the guy is one of my heroes in terms of just vision and Business and Technology. And in this, this book, he wrote this a couple of years ago. He said this one this is his first rule of competition in the digital age. The number one rule was simply this, a personalized consumer experience, key to exponential growth. That's exactly you and I are talking about personally. I want to see interfaces adapt to users, rather than what we have today, which is users having to adapt to the interface.   Michael Hingson ** 38:32 Yeah, and it would make so much sense to do so. I hope somebody out there is listening and will maybe take some of this to heart, because if they do it right, they can have a huge market in no time at all, just because they show they care. You know, Nielsen Company did a survey back in 2016 where they looked at a variety of companies and consumers and so on. And if I recall the numbers right, they decided that people with disabilities are 35% more likely to continue to work with and shop, for example, at companies that really do what they can to make their websites and access to their products accessible, as opposed to not. And that's that's telling. It's so very telling. But we don't see people talking about that nearly like we should   Mike Paciello ** 39:20 you talk about a business value proposition. There is bullet proof that where you are leaving money on the table, yep, and a lot of it, yeah, exactly. We're not talking about 1000s or hundreds of 1000s. We're talking about billions and trillions, in some instances, not an exaggeration by any stretch of the imagination, very, very simple math. I had this conversation a couple years ago with the CEO of Pearson. At that time, he's retired, but, you know, I told him, if you spent $1 for every person that it was in the world with. Disability, you're, you're, you're talking about 1/4 of the population, right? It's simple math, simple math,   Michael Hingson ** 40:08 but people still won't do it. I mean, we taught you to mention section 508, before with the whole issue of web access, how much of the government has really made their websites accessible, even though it's the law?   Mike Paciello ** 40:19 Yeah, three years, three or four years ago, they did a study, and they found out that the good that every federal agency, most of the federal agencies, were not even keeping up thinking with reporting of the status, of where they were, and yet that was written right into the five way law. They were mandated to do it, and they still did do   Michael Hingson ** 40:37 it. We haven't, you know, the whole Americans with Disabilities Act. Finally, the Department of Justice said that the internet is a place of business, but still, it's not written in the law. And of course, we only see about 3% of all websites that tend to have any level of access. And there's no reason for that. It's not that magical. And again, I go back to what do we do to get schools and those who teach people how to code to understand the value of putting in accessibility right from the outset?   Mike Paciello ** 41:10 Yeah, no, I totally agree with you. I think this is what Kate sanka is trying to do with with Teach access. In fact, you know, again, my company, TPG was one of the founding companies have teach access back again, 10 years ago, when it first started. But that's where it starts. I mean, they're, they're pretty much focused on post secondary, university education, but I could tell you on a personal level, I was speaking at my kids grade school, elementary school, because they were already using laptops and computers back then it starts. Then you've got to build a mindset. You've got to build it we you've heard about the accessibility, maturity models coming out of the W, 3c, and in I, double AP. What that speaks to fundamentally, is building a culture within your corporate organization that is think accessibility as a think accessibility mindset, that it is woven into the fiber of every business line, in every technology, software development life cycle, all of the contributors at that level, from A to Z. But if you don't build it into the culture, it's not going to happen. So I would love to see a lot more being done at that level. But yeah, it's, it's, it's a, it's a hero. Yeah,   Michael Hingson ** 42:34 we're, we're left out of the conversation so much. Yeah, yeah, totally. So you, you sold TPG, and you then formed, or you had web able and then able Docs.   Mike Paciello ** 42:48 So what web able came out was a carve out, one of two carve outs that I had from when I sold TPG. The other was open access technologies, which which eventually was sold to another accessibility company primarily focused on making documentation accessible to meet the WCAG and other standards requirements and web able I carved out. It's been a kind of a hobby of mine now, for since I sold TPG, I'm still working on the back end, ironically, from the get go, so we're talking, you know, again, eight years ago, I had built machine learning and AI into it. From then back then, I did so that what it does is it very simply, goes out and collects 1000s and 1000s of articles as it relates to technology, people with disabilities, and then cleans them up and post them to web able.com I've got a lot more playing for it, but that's in a nutshell. That's what it does. And I don't we do some we do some QA review to make sure that the cleanup in terms of accessibility and the articles are are properly formatted and are accessible. We use the web aim API, but yeah, works like magic. Works like clockwork, and that's got aI uses IBM Watson AI built into it. Yeah, enable docs was abledocs was, how should I say this in a nice way, abledocs was a slight excursion off of my main route. It can work out. I wish it had. It had a lot of potential, much like open access technologies, but they both suffered from owners who really, really not including myself, who just didn't have good vision and in lack humility,   Michael Hingson ** 44:43 yeah. How's that? There you go. Well, so not to go political or anything, but AI in general is interesting, and I know that there have been a lot of debates over the last few years about artificial. Intelligence and helping to make websites accessible. There are several companies like AudioEye, user way, accessibe and so on that to one degree or another, use AI. What? What? So in general, what do you think about AI and how it's going to help deal with or not, the whole issue of disabilities and web access,   Mike Paciello ** 45:22 yeah, and we're going to set aside Neil Jacobs thoughts on how he sees it in the future, right? Although I have to tell you, he gave me some things to think about, so we'll just set that to to the side. So I think what AI offers today is something that I thought right away when it started to see the, you know, the accessibes, the user ways, the audio, eyes, and all the other companies kind of delving into it, I always saw potential to how's this remediate a fundamental problem or challenge, let's not call it a problem, a challenge that we were otherwise seeing in the professional services side of that equation around web accessibility, right? So you get experts who use validation tools and other tools, who know about code. Could go in and they know and they use usability, they use user testing, and they go in and they can tell you what you need to do to make your digital properties right, usable and accessible. People with disabilities, all well and good. That's great. And believe me, I had some of the best people, if not the best people in the world, work for me at one time. However, there are a couple of things it could not do in it's never going to do. Number one, first and foremost, from my perspective, it can't scale. It cannot scale. You can do some things at, you know, in a large way. For example, if, if a company is using some sort of, you know, CMS content management system in which their entire sites, you know, all their sites, all their digital properties, you know, are woven into templates, and those templates are remediated. So that cuts down a little bit on the work. But if you go into companies now, it's not like they're limited to two or three templates. Now they've got, you know, department upon department upon department, everybody's got a different template. So even those are becoming very vos, very verbose and very plentiful. So accessibility as a manual effort doesn't really scale well. And if it does, even if it could, it's not fast enough, right? So that's what AI does, AI, coupled with automation, speeds up that process and delivers a much wider enterprise level solution. Now again, AI automation is not, is not a whole, is not a holistic science. You know, it's not a silver bullet. David Marathi likes to use the term, what is he? He likes the gold standard. Well, from his perspective, and by the way, David Marathi is CEO of audio. Eye is a combination of automation AI in expert analysis, along with the use of the integration of user testing and by user testing, it's not just personas, but it's also compatibility with the assistive technologies that people with disabilities use. Now, when you do that, you've got something that you could pattern after a standard software development life cycle, environment in which you integrate all of these things. So if you got a tool, you integrate it there. If you've got, you know, a digital accessibility platform which does all this automation, AI, right, which, again, this is the this is a forester foresters take on the the the daps, as they calls it. And not really crazy about that, but that's what they are. Digital Accessibility platforms. It allows us to scale and scale at costs that are much lower, at speeds that are much faster, and it's just a matter of like any QA, you've got to check your work, and you've got it, you can't count on that automation being absolute. We know for a fact that right now, at best, we're going to be able to get 35 to 40% accuracy, some claim, larger different areas. I'm still not convinced of that, but the fact of the matter is, it's like anything else. Technology gets better as it goes, and we'll see improvements over time periods.   Michael Hingson ** 49:49 So here's here's my thought, yeah, let's say you use AI in one of the products that's out there. And I. You go to a website and you include it, and it reasonably well makes the website 50% more usable and accessible than it was before. I'm just, I just threw out that number. I know it's random. Go ahead, Yep, yeah, but let's say it does that. The reality is that means that it's 50% that the web developers, the web coders, don't have to do because something else is dealing with it. But unfortunately, their mentality is not to want to deal with that because they also fear it. But, you know, I remember back in the mid 1980s I started a company because I went off and tried to find a job and couldn't find one. So I started a company with a couple of other people, where we sold early PC based CAD systems to architects, right? And we had AutoCAD versus CAD. Another one called point line, which was a three dimensional system using a y cap solid modeling board that took up two slots in your PC. So it didn't work with all PCs because we didn't have enough slots. But anyway, right, right, right. But anyway, when I brought architects in and we talked about what it did and we showed them, many of them said, I'll never use that. And I said, why? Well, it does work, and that's not the question. But the issue is, we charge by the time, and so we take months to sometimes create designs and projects, right? And so we can't lose that revenue. I said, you're looking at it all wrong. Think about it this way, somebody gives you a job, you come back and you put it in the CAD system. You go through all the iterations it takes, let's just say, two weeks. Then you call your customer in. You use point line, and you can do a three dimensional walk through and fly through. You can even let them look out the window and see what there is and all that they want to make changes. They tell you the changes. You go off and you make the changes. And two weeks later, now it's a month, you give them their finished product, all the designs, all the plots and all that, all done, and you charge them exactly the same price you were going to charge them before. Now you're not charging for your time, you're charging for your expertise, right? And I think that same model still holds true that the technology, I think most people will agree that it is not perfect, but there are a lot of things that it can do. Because the reality is, the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, are all things that can be defined with computer code, whether it necessarily does it all well with AI or not, is another story. But if it does it to a decent fraction, it makes all the difference in terms of what you're able to do and how quickly you can do   Mike Paciello ** 52:52 it. Yeah, I can argue with that at all. I think any time that we can make our jobs a little bit easier so that we can focus where we should be focused. In this case, as you said, the expertise side of it, right to fix those complicated scenarios or situations that require a hands on surgical like Right? Expertise, you can do that now. You've got more hours more time because it's been saved. The only thing I would say, Mike, about what, what you just said, is that there with that, with that mindset, okay, comes responsibility. Oh, yeah, in this is where I think in everybody that knows anything about this environment, you and I have an intimate understanding of this. The whole overlay discussion is the biggest problem with what happened was less about the technology and more about what claims are being made. Yeah, the technology could do which you could not do in, in some cases, could never do, or would never, would never do, well, right? So if you create, and I would submit this is true in as a fundamental principle, if you create a technology of any kind, you must, in truth, inform your clients of of what it can and cannot do so they understand the absolute value to them, because the last thing you want, because, again, we live in a, unfortunately, a very litigious world. Right soon as there's   Michael Hingson ** 54:49 a mistake couldn't happen,   Mike Paciello ** 54:51 they'll go right after you. So now you know, and again, I don't I'm not necessarily just blaming the ambulance chasers of the world. World. I was talking to an NFP lawyer today. He referred to them in a different name, and I can't remember well, I never heard the expression before, but that's what he meant, right? Yeah, it's the salesman and the product managers and the marketing people themselves, who are were not themselves, to your point, properly trained, properly educated, right? It can't be done, what clearly could not be said, what should or should not be said, right? And then you got lawyers writing things all over the place. So, yeah, yeah. So, so I look people knew when I made the decision to come to audio eye that it was a make or break scenario for me, or at least that's what they thought in my mindset. It always, has always been, that I see incredible possibilities as you do or technology, it just has to be handled responsibly.   Michael Hingson ** 55:56 Do you think that the companies are getting better and smarter about what they portray about their products than they than they were three and four and five years ago.   Mike Paciello ** 56:08 Okay, look, I sat in and chaired a meeting with the NFB on this whole thing. And without a doubt, they're getting smarter. But it took not just a stick, you know, but, but these large lawsuits to get them to change their thinking, to see, you know, where they where they were wrong, and, yeah, things are much better. There's still some issues out there. I both know it that's going to happen, that happens in every industry,   Michael Hingson ** 56:42 but there are improvements. It is getting better, and people are getting smarter, and that's where an organization like the NFB really does need to become more involved than in a sense, they are. They took some pretty drastic steps with some of the companies, and I think that they cut off their nose, despite their face as well, and that didn't help. So I think there are things that need to be done all the way around, but I do see that progress is being made too. I totally   Mike Paciello ** 57:11 agree, and in fact, I'm working with them right now. We're going to start working on the California Accessibility Act again. I'm really looking forward to working with the NFB, the DRC and Imperato over there and his team in the disability rights consortium, consortium with disability rights. What DRC coalition, coalition in in California. I can't wait to do that. We tried last year. We got stopped short. It got tabled, but I feel very good about where we're going this year. So that's, that's my that's, that is my focus right now. And I'm glad I'm going to be able to work with the NFB to be able to do that. Yeah, well, I, I really do hope that it passes. We've seen other states. We've seen some states pass some good legislation, and hopefully we will continue to see some of that go on. Yeah, Colorado has done a great job. Colorado sent a great job. I think they've done it. I really like what's being done with the EAA, even though it's in Europe, and some of the things that are going there, Susanna, Lauren and I had some great discussions. I think she is has been a leader of a Yeoman effort at that level. So we'll see. Let's, let's, I mean, there's still time out here. I guess I really would like to retire,   Michael Hingson ** 58:28 but I know the feeling well, but I can't afford to yet, so I'll just keep speaking and all that well, Mike, this has been wonderful. I really appreciate you taking an hour and coming on, and at least neither of us is putting up with any kind of snow right now, but later in the year we'll see more of that.   Mike Paciello ** 58:45 Yeah, well, maybe you will. We don't get snow down. I have. We've gotten maybe 25 flakes in North Carolina since I've been here.   Michael Hingson ** 58:53 Yeah, you don't get a lot of snow. We don't hear we don't really get it here, around us, up in the mountains, the ski resorts get it, but I'm out in a valley, so we don't, yeah,   Mike Paciello ** 59:02 yeah, no. I love it. I love this is golfing weather.   Michael Hingson ** 59:05 There you go. If people want to reach out to you, how do they do that?   Mike Paciello ** 59:11 There's a couple of ways. Certainly get in touch with me at AudioEye. It's michael.paciello@audioeye.com   Michael Hingson ** 59:17 B, A, C, I, E, L, L, O,   Mike Paciello ** 59:18 that's correct. Thank you for that.
