Send us a text


Ever wonder how the privacy landscape in the United States is
about to shift dramatically? As we return from our Thanksgiving
celebrations, we promise you'll gain highlights into the eight
new privacy laws that will redefine how businesses handle
consumer data by 2025. States like Delaware, Nebraska, New
Hampshire, and Iowa are leading the push for more
consumer-friendly policies with default opt-out provisions and
enhanced measures for children's privacy. 

Switching gears to cybersecurity, we uncover the alarming breach
by the Chinese hacking group Salt Typhoon into US
telecommunication firms. This episode stresses the critical
importance of securing our communications and highlights the
vulnerabilities that lie within current infrastructures. We
recommend secure tools like ProtonMail and Signal to bolster
personal privacy against these persistent threats. Delve into the
potential motivations behind these breaches, including the
chilling prospect of strategic data collection for future
decryption, and understand why vigilance is more crucial than
ever. Join us as we explore these pressing topics.
