If you are carrying a smartphone, you might as well be wearing an ankle monitor.

A smart phone and a smart watch which intrinsically can monitor your heart rate & other bio information is damn near equivalent to being location/activity monitored AND hooked up to a lie detector.

Throw in the GPS on your vehicle and it is constant surveillance.

Newsflash: "AI" is coming to EVERY desktop computer, embedded in the operating system

! You know, "for your benefit". It will be called your "agent". Everything you interact with the computer, your "agent" will monitor. "For your benefit". Browsers won't need "browser history" menu ANYMORE. Just aks "your agent": "what was that site explaining credit fraud i looked at a few weeks ago...summarize it please!" Agent will do it. "Agent" will extend to your PERSONAL apps too: Every letter you write (never mind it's not in your browser but your word processor) AGENT will be able to recall it, summarize, re-write it for a different reader, send it ......... THINK ! It will also NO DOUBT have a social score component (unbeknownst to you) categorizing ("binning") you as a user in much much much much more descriptive pigeon-holing ways. You know, "for your benefit" ! Freeeeeeeeeedumb ! Progress ! Capital !

I have a de-googled phone and only use it for calls and texting which isn't all that much. Smart phones were created to be prisons for the dumb.

I have a landline and a dump flip phone for emergencies.

It's a scary world and we need the reminder. The problem is that most people will convert regular nightmare into normality. People don't fight bad things, they pretend they don't exist.

Of course, the worse crime would be being aware whilst doing nothing. I will continue vanishing slowly. I haven't been on FB for years, and have never touched Instagram. My website is offshore. I'll schedule a bunch of things but, by year end, I will, for example, no longer look at the news and escapism travel on YouTube (that will be a challenge), or use GMail as a back-up edress.

It would be good for you to suggest how to be safe.

And don't trust the Swiss email provider Proton Mail.

They gave up an American citizen to DOJ who threatened Fauci.

So much for Swiss neutrality. Since when do they bow to DOJ?

Expand full comment

They're not neutral regarding Ukraine and Russia, but that hasn't made the mainstream.

Yep, Proton a let down. I warned of that too. It's likely nowhere is safe, except offline.

Expand full comment

I didn't hear about the Ukraine/Russia non-neutrality.

Gonna have to check into that...thanks.

Expand full comment

It's support of sanctions against Russia was a big move away from its previous neutrality.

Expand full comment

Ok, thanks for the details.

Those sanctions against Russia were just more US economic terrorism.

Russians are strong, hardy, resourceful, and they don't give up.

Think 900 day siege of Leningrad and the battle for Stalingrad.

They don't give up.

And, this month, they may have lured Ukraine into a trap. 1200-2000 casualties daily. I fear worse to come.

Identifying the name of a source of criminal investigation is a world away from Google et al who turn over entire user contents w NatSec request while selling keyword data harvested from user content.. Proton isn't perfect but it's not feeding on user content.

Expand full comment

How do you know that Proton is not feeding user content?

How can you be sure?

They sure did fold when DOJ requested information. The Swiss government or companies have no requirement or obligation to supply the DOJ with anything.

We cannot be positive of anything in the unseen web but trust in my cyber-angels who have been spot on with everything since they recommended buying Bitcoin at $11 bucks and confident the encryption keys are a level above & not bound by US corp lawfare.

Did you know about Crypto AG?

Another commenter told me to look it up...I had no idea.

I've written about it. And it's why I am wary of "US intelligence community" created encrypted apps.

No the crypto has always been beyond my math skills to fully appreciate and certainly outside my tech skills to protect any virtual currency.. old school faith in physical gold that can be kept in a drawer & touched with my own hands prevails as fiat alternative! :~)

Who the F “works” for the CIA? Demons from hell? How can anyone justify working for the Devil? And don't tell me “To protect and serve.” Hogwash!

Expand full comment

According to an ex state department worker I discussed the CIA/their "assets" with, the agency actively seeks (what "normal" people would view as) corrupt people. They understand their motivations + capabilities and know how to use them.

Expand full comment

Well, that’s…er…nice but I’m talking about employees, clerks and all that. In the entire history of the CIA, the only human with a soul was Snowden and he didn’t even work for them. Doesn’t say much good about America.

I also don’t have much use for “former” CIA “talking heads” unless, of course, they are doing penance for a life of crime.

I'm SO glad GUN RIGHTS prevented Venture Capital from creating a business model to steal our lives every bit of info! This is exactly why the 2nd amendment has been stellar, absolutely stellar in protecting Americans. Thanks to the 2nd amendment, we avoided a global financial crisis due to US bank misbehavior in 2008! Thanks to 2nd amendment, African Americans are safer in police encounters! Thanks to the 2nd amendment Americans are safe from seizure of assets, fraud, spam, global warming. Think of the role guns have played keeping global warming from destroying our planet! Australia has burnt 170mn acres this season alone! Think of all the corporate fraud they've stopped ! All those congressmen/women kept in check! I tellyou.........paradise! Freeeeeeeeedumb !

I was doing business in Liechtenstein and ran into some bankers who worked for the Rothschilds. They loved Proton....when I heard that, I didn't need to hear anything else, I worked in that space for 7 years and ran into all sorts of people (good ones, spies, etc). The founders were from CERN.

Assume Proton is another info collector. The best services don't collect anything. We're building a new one at privateline.io, it's in Alpha -- users in that group are free (click on Get Alpha). The model is different, it's a secure network, completely away from the internet. Almost time to withdraw.

Another example of capitalism going very wrong instead of allowing us ease and security by regulating these terrible intrusions. After reading your informative article I am changing my online behavior! And starting discussions on personal cyber security. Thank you, Kit.

🥷🏼🩸PROJECT ISRAEL CYBER SHIELD🩸🥷🏼

. . . . For years, the IAC Israeli-American Council, was largely financed and led by Las Vegas mega-billionaire Sheldon Adelson, the top contributor to the 2020 Trump campaign

. . . a web of secretive troll farms across the US directed from Israel. . . to encourage pro-Israel students to download an Israeli app through which they could respond to Israeli government-directed “missions” to secretly target and harass critics of Israel.

By 2018, the operation had opened Israel-directed troll farms across the US and was completing 1,580 missions a week.. . . . employed the software Radian6, which monitored online conversations in real time from more than 150 million social media sources. “We’re phasing that out over the next year and we’re bringing on more sophisticated technology that is developed in Israel,” said Baime. Secrecy, however, is paramount.

Imagine the outcry from "liberals" if this was happening during a Trump administration. When the Democrats are in power the enemies of humanity can get away with just about anything. Trump Derangement Syndrome is no joke.
