Smart Devices and Privacy - Part 2
01:11:28
In this episode of Privacy Files, we wrap up our two-part series on Smart Devices and Privacy. We highlight another handful of popular smart devices and discuss the privacy and security implications of employing them in your home. From baby monitors and security systems (including Ring doorbell cameras) to smart cars and digital assistants, we give you the pros and cons and how to better protect yourself. Then we step back a bit to look at the smart home as a whole. What's the common theme? If a device is connected to the internet, your privacy is at risk. At a minimum, make sure you research the privacy policy of any smart device you buy as well as the track record of the company who makes it. In the last half of the episode, we dive into smart cities and entertain some of the possible objectives driving their adoption. Organizations such as the World Economic Form (WEF), the United Nations (UN) and the G20 all have discussed plans to push for cities that incorporate more Internet of Things (IoT) technology into urban planning. We close out the episode by looking at smart meters. What kind of data do they share with utility companies and who can access this information? Also, how easily is the information hackable and what can hackers do with the data? You might find it surprising just how much can be learned about your day-to-day habits simply by analyzing smart meter data.

Smart Devices and Privacy - Part 1
01:00:21
Today, smart devices are practically everywhere. In fact, there are now 15.14 billion internet-connected devices worldwide. That number is expected to double by 2030. In 2020, the number of Inernet-of-Things (IoT) devices surpassed the number of non-IoT devices. And there's no looking back. Worldwide, 127 devices are connected to the internet every second of the day. And by 2025, it is estimated that 152,200 devices will be connecting to the internet every minute. Smart devices bring lots of convenience to our hectic and complicated lives. But is that convenience worth the increased risk to your privacy? In this episode of Privacy Files, Rich and Sarah kick of the show by celebrating the podcast's 21st episode--placing it in the top 1% of all podcasts globally. According to Jack Butcher, Head of the creative agency Visualize Value, 99% of all podcasts never make it past the 20th episode. Definitely worth a little celebration. And thank you to our listeners for supporting the privacy mission. You are the reason we created this endeavor. Sarah and Rich start off the episode with a little history about smart devices. Spoiler Alert: The first IoT device was actually a vending machine! The conversation shifts to the pros and cons of wireless and hardwired smart devices as well as smart devices in general. Sarah then dives into some specific types of smart devices and the nuances of each. She also touches on a few strange smart devices that sound a bit too much even for the most modern of societies. Rich and Sarah then break down the data privacy picture for devices like thermostats, smart glasses, audio/visual equipment, wearable technologies and smartphones. Rich closes out the episode by highlighting some examples of smart device hacking, including a test conducted by YouTuber Dustin from the channel SmarterEveryDay. Dustin used a laser to hack into a variety of smart devices during the experiment. All in all, this is an episode that may very well leave you reconsidering the adoption of smart device technology inside your home.

Spy Balloons and Surveillance Technology
01:09:47
In this spellbinding episode of Privacy Files, Rich and Sarah peel the layers off of the Chinese Spy Balloon incident that occurred over the United States from January 28 to February 4 2023. While this incident may have been an attempt by the Chinese government to gather intelligence from American military installations, there are further concerns that the technology included in the balloon's payload could have been used to surveil American citizens. According to the U.S. State Department, the spy balloon was likely capable of listening in on Americans’ communications and pinpointing the location of those conversing on the ground. A State Department official said, “It had multiple antennas to include an array likely capable of collecting and geolocating communications. It was equipped with solar panels large enough to produce the requisite power to operate multiple active intelligence collection sensors.” The Pentagon now believes that China sent balloons over the continental U.S. at least four times over the past six years that went undetected. Rich and Sarah interviewed Dr. Juan Deaton about the science of radio waves and wireless communications technologies. Dr. Deaton is a research scientist and engineer who specializes in satellite communications. He has an extensive background in the areas of electrical and computer engineering, as well as wireless networking. After Dr. Deaton explains some common off-the-shelf technologies available for surveillance, the conversation moves to hypothetical scenarios. Should individual Americans be concerned? Can this type of surveillance technology be employed to intercept mobile phone communications? And if so, what can people do to better protect themselves from this invasion of privacy? We already know the FBI and the NSA have used cell-site simulator technology to surveil people's mobile phone conversations. "Stingrays" and "dirtboxes" are two types of surveillance devices reported to mimic a cell tower. This episode is informative and a bit unnerving at the same time. But in the end, Dr. Deaton helps put things in perspective.

Online Gaming and Privacy
00:52:50
The video game industry is the largest category within the entertainment industry, generating hundreds of billions of dollars in revenue annually. Estimates put the video game industry at five to ten times the box office revenue of the movie industry. More than half of Gen X, Gen Y and Gen Z play video games. In fact, an astonishing 81% of Gen Z plays video games. But just exactly how private is gaming? According to one former FBI agent, in 2019, there were approximately 1,000 swatting cases in the United States. Although swatting is a federal crime, punishable by up to life in prison, the problem continues to persist. And even if you're not at risk for a swatting incident, there is also the threat of doxxing. So how do you protect your privacy while participating in online gaming? It's always a good idea to start with a VPN. A VPN, or virtual private network, allows you to access the internet through a tunnel that hides your actual IP address. Bad actors can combine your IP address with other information discoverable online to identify where you live. In this episode of Privacy Files, we kick off our inaugural episode of "MySudo Monday" by giving you several tips for better protecting your personal data, which will ultimately keep you safe. Included in these tips is advice for leveraging the privacy app MySudo for ensuring you're breaking the link between your personal data and the outside world. "MySudo Monday" is a monthly series where we highlight a popular use case for MySudo.

Teens and Online Safety
00:40:00
In this episode of Privacy Files, Rich and Sarah observe Teen Tech Week by addressing some of the safety issues teenagers encounter while navigating the online world. The discussion was enhanced by welcoming a guest, the mother of a teenage daughter, to provide insight into the growing issues teens face online. Teens spend hours and hours on their mobile devices every single day. However, when they encounter a risky situation online, only 1 out of every 4 times do they actually inform a parent about it. Further online stats for teens include:
Sarah covered a few apps that teens might use to conceal content on their phones. Rich addressed the topic of mental health and how social media is contributing to an increase in teen anxiety, depression and suicide. Sarah provided ten tips for keeping children safe online and then closed out the episode by presenting five ways parents can use MySudo, the world's only all-in-one privacy app, to protect the privacy and safety of their kids.

Cybersecurity and Remote Work
00:32:39
Nearly 1.2% of all emails sent are malicious in nature. That's approximately 3.4 billion phishing emails sent every single day. In this episode of Privacy Files, we examine how the increase in remote work is raising the risk level for data breaches at companies around the world. One growing threat is zero-click exploits. These are cyber attacks that don't even require the victim to click a link. This type of threat usually comes in the form of an image sent via a text. In fact, Samsung just released a feature called Message Guard. Currently being rolled out on the Galaxy S23 Device, this tool automatically neutralizes any potential threat hiding within image files before it has the chance to inflict harm. Overall, 47% of all US businesses have suffered some form of a cyber attack. One attack can cost a US-based business $18,000 on average. Whenever remote work is determined to be a causal factor in a data breach, the average cost increases by more than $1 million. Further, it takes remote-based organizations 58 days longer than office-based organizations to identify and contain a breach. From phishing and ransomware, to Denial-of-Service attacks and malware, this episode will help put in perspective the challenges facing today's businesses. We close out the episode by providing some tips on working from home safely and privately.

TikTok and Privacy - Part 2
00:52:45
In Part 2 of our two-part series on TikTok and Privacy, we start off by looking at the mental health effects of being on the short-form video app. From feeding users a constant stream of harmful content to shaming people about their body image, TikTok has come under tremendous heat from critics around the world. While TikTok's community guidelines state that bullying and other forms of harassment are violations, only content moderators in the Beijing office are allowed to ban accounts. With the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention stating that there has been a 60% increase in high school girls seriously considering or planning suicide, social media has no doubt played an integral part in this trend. TikTok has also made itself infamous with dangerous viral challenges. From the blackout and Benadryl challenges to the Tide Pods and burning pile challenges, the app has led to many users' physical harm--all for some fleeting attention. Many critics have accused TikTok of restricting or shadow banning people who are less attractive, overweight, disabled or living in poor locations. The assertion is that the app wants to promote more "desirable" content. TikTok defends itself by claiming it is attempting to protect users from being the target of bullying. Although TikTok's minimum age restriction is 13 years old, it has no verification system, meaning there are likely many children on the app who are under 13. TikTok also has experienced problems with child predators on the app and has been sued multiple times over collecting personal data on children without parental consent. To wrap up the episode, we talk about how ByteDance learned from the mistakes of Vine and leveraged that knowledge in building out TikTok. We address how TikTok makes money and then close with ByteDance's ambitious plans for global domination in virtually every significant online industry.

TikTok and Privacy - Part 1
00:47:29
More than 1.5 billion people use TikTok worldwide. Nearly one-third of the world's internet users are on the ultra popular short-form video hosting app. In 2022, TikTok was the most downloaded app on earth. But what is TikTok doing with all of this user data? Is it really just a harmless app for watching silly dancing videos? Or is there more to the story? In Part 1 of this 2-part Privacy Files series on TikTok and privacy, we review the origin story of TikTok's parent company, ByteDance. Did you know before there was TikTok, there was a headline news app? The real story of TikTok is its powerful algorithm--an algorithm so good it can learn what you like to watch in as little as one hour. But is the TikTok algorithm also leading to app addiction? Users frequently confess to losing track of time as they spend hours in the app every day. And the longer a user interacts with the app, the more data that can be collected, and the more TikTok knows about you. We also cover the brilliant marketing strategy ByteDance employed for successfully rolling out TikTok to the entire world. To wrap up Part 1, we examine the global backlash TikTok has received from countries like India and the United States, as questions mount about data privacy, explicit content, whether or not the app is a surveillance tool for the Chinese government.

Social Engineering Attacks - From Phishing to Pretexting
00:45:50
In 2022, social engineering was the #1 type of cyber attack, with an average cost of $4.1 million per incident. It's so common that in the last six months, even Uber and Reddit were victims. Data breaches that occurred in 2022 where social engineering was the attack vector took on average 270 days to identity and contain--201 days to identity the breach and 69 days to contain them. When it comes to social engineering attacks, it's all about the human element. In fact, 90% of cyber attacks against organizations target people instead of IT and cybersecurity defenses. Why? Cause the human is often the weakest part of the security chain. In this episode of Privacy Files, we talk about some of the most common types of social engineering attacks--from phishing and baiting, to pretexting and honeytraps. We'll explain how social engineering attacks closely leverage the "Six Principles of Influence," developed by American professor of Psychology and Marketing, Robert Cialdini. Rich and Sarah share some personal stories, and then close out the episode with plenty of tips for avoiding becoming a victim a social engineering attack.

Online Dating and Privacy: A Valentine's Day Special
01:02:03
Over 40 million Americans use dating apps. Globally, that number is more than 300 million. While many find success leveraging dating apps to find love, it's not always a positive experience. In fact, 46% of Americans say dating sites and apps are "not too safe" or "not at all safe." Of female dating app users ages 18-34, 60% said someone continue to contact them after they said they were not interested, and nearly one in five said someone had threatened to physically harm them. In this episode of Privacy Files, Rich and Sarah celebrate Valentine's Day by discussing the topic of staying safe and private while navigating the world of online dating. The dating app industry is huge. Generating billions of dollars annually, apps like Tinder, Bumble, Match, OkCupid, Plenty of Fish and so many more, offer single people the convenience of sorting through hundreds, if not thousands, of dating profiles from the comfort of home. But how do you safely use dating apps? How do you protect your privacy while searching for love? Rich and Sarah are joined by Sarah's brother, Chad, to provide his insight into how a member of Gen Z sees the dating app culture. Rich sets the stage by covering several dating app statistics, including an eye-opening one that one in four Americans admitted to using a dating app to cheat. Even crazier, one in ten Americans said they have been active on a dating app while out on a date with another person. The conversation then shifts to catfishing and how to spot this scam before it's too late. From "foodie calls" and the fundamental flaws of dating apps, to plenty of anecdotal dating stories and watching for red flags, this is a great discussion for helping you avoid being scammed while using dating apps.

How to protect your privacy with MySudo
00:33:55
In this episode of Privacy Files, Rich and Sarah dive deep into the world of MySudo, the world's only all-in-one privacy app. And Bundy, Anonyome Labs' Head of User Support, joins the discussion from his office on the Gold Coast of Australia. As one of the original employees at Anonyome, Bundy brings an immense wealth of knowledge about the inner workings of MySudo. Before breaking down how MySudo protects personal data, Rich and Sarah discuss the recent news about the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) slapping a $1.5 million fine on GoodRx, an online price comparison site for prescription medications. GoodRx is accused of sharing the health information of consumers with third parties like Facebook, Google and Criteo for advertising purposes. As the episode moves into MySudo talk, Bundy explains why the app is so popular with privacy advocates. From not requiring personally identifiable information (PII) and having no capability to decrypt user data, to robust functionality and the core concept of compartmentalization of online living, MySudo is a privacy champion's dream come true. Rich explains the concept of digital exhaust, why it's a bad thing, and how MySudo limits it to better protect your personal data. He explains why just any email address is not good enough, especially if you're using Gmail. Then Rich introduces UID 2.0, an emerging advertising framework designed to use email addresses as a primary means for tracking people online. Sarah then explains the different MySudo plans offered and what each subscription service offers. From encrypted communications to advanced messaging features, MySudo is the most robust privacy app in the world. As the discussion continues, Bundy and Sarah address private contact matching and porting a number into MySudo. The Rich private browsing, virtual cards and pairing MySudo with a laptop browser. Sarah and Bundy wrap things up by going over frequently asked questions, how to deal with spam calls, and what new features are coming in 2023.

ChatGPT and Privacy
00:43:30
ChatGPT is the hottest topic in technology. It's impossible to comb through the daily news and not bump into another story about this artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot. Yes, we admit, it's a really cool piece of technology. But what about the privacy implications? In this episode of Privacy Files, Brian Tillman (Mr. Metaverse) makes another special appearance on the podcast to discuss with Rich the privacy concerns surrounding ChatGPT. We talk about ChatGPT's origins and Microsoft's investment in the parent company, OpenAI. As the discussion shifts toward the privacy angle, Rich talks about the overwhelming amount of data needed to successfully run such a sophisticated chatbot like ChatGPT. What data is fair game for ChatGPT to sift through? Will sensitive personal information be searched? Where are the boundaries? What are the applications? Overall, this discussion will make you think hard about some of the emerging privacy challenges we will face in a world where AI is evolving at a breakneck pace.

Exposing Pegasus: The Global Spyware Scandal
00:35:30
People often say, "I have nothing to hide." Hence, they're not concerned about a government monitoring their personal communications. For those who hold this view, this episode might make you rethink your position. In this episode of Privacy Files, Rich and Sarah review the new 2-part PBS documentary Global Spyware Scandal: Exposing Pegasus. This documentary is an earth-shattering story about governments using advanced technology to surveil politicians, heads of state, royal family members, journalists, activists and human rights defenders. As one person put it, “a spy service for tyrants.” Pegasus is spyware developed by the Israeli cyber-arms company NSO group. It can be covertly installed on mobile phones (and other devices) running most versions of iOS and Android. It can covertly read text messages, track calls, collect passwords, track location, access microphones and cameras, and harvest info from apps. The spyware can be installed on a device without the victim ever needing to click a link. This technique is called a zero-click exploit. While NSO Group claims it only provides Pegasus to authorized governments to assist in combating terrorism and crime, the evidence is overwhelming that the tool is being used to track people who are in opposition to establishment governments. In other words, people who are a threat to power. In fact, the FBI admitted to purchasing Pegasus, but as of early 2022, claimed they never activated the spyware. All in all, this documentary is about multiple news agencies joining together on a yearlong investigation of one of the greatest invasion-of-privacy scandals in human history.

Healthcare Privacy: Is your medical data secure?
00:43:32
In this latest episode of Privacy Files, Rich and Sarah take on their most ambitious investigation thus far. From wearable technology and DNA analysis for ancestry research, to at-home blood tests and scheduling doctors' visits online, people now freely share more of their medical information than at any other time in human history. And along with the rise in the use of technology to analyze the details of our intimate medical history comes the increase in opportunities for abuse of that sensitive data. While the topic of healthcare privacy is impossible to fully unpack in only one episode, Rich and Sarah provide a thorough introduction to the topic. And there's little doubt, there will likely be many more episodes in the future addressing various aspects of this highly involved subject. To kick off the show, Rich talks about the recent news of Amazon launching a new prescription drug service called RxPass, giving subscribers access to more than 50 commonly prescribed medications for a flat monthly fee of $5. It's just one more example of Amazon's strategic goal of dominating the entire healthcare supply chain--and acquiring the rich personal data that accompanies that powerful position. Rich then digs into the groundbreaking investigation by The Markup discovering that 33 of Newsweek's "Top 100 Hospitals in America" were using Meta's Pixel Tracker, which was sending private medical information back to Facebook without patient consent. Sarah then dives into wearable technology, talking about the Apple Watch and how it can track detailed information on sleep, ovulation cycles, heart health, and general fitness levels, and the implications if that data falls into the wrong hands. Sarah also addresses how blood samples are taken for newborn screening. Why is it mandatory? Where does this blood go? How long is it stored? What is it used for beyond the primary reason given? To close out the episode, Rich talks about DNA used for ancestry research and at-home blood tests that are used to screen for genetic predispositions to disease, metabolic sensitivities and food allergies. Sarah takes us home by looking at the types of information we share with insurance companies.

Celebrating Data Privacy Week
00:31:24
In this episode of Privacy Files, Rich and Sarah celebrate Data Privacy Week. Running January 22-28, 2023, this annual event, sponsored by the National Cybersecurity Alliance, is designed to raise awareness about online privacy. The mission is two-fold: help individuals understand that they have the power to manage their data and educate organizations on why it's important to respect their users' data. We kicked off the episode by covering the recent T-Mobile data breach where a hacker compromised the data of 37 million customers. This is the eighth time T-Mobile has been hacked since 2018. Data Privacy Week commemorates the January 28, 1981 signing of Convention 108, the first legally binding international treaty dealing with privacy and data protection. Last year, the National Cybersecurity Alliance extended Data Privacy Day into Data Privacy Week. We cover how every online activity leaves a data trail linking back to you and your personally identifiable information. Then we give you a series of simple solutions to better protect your data. Both Rich and Sarah tell some personal stories that underscore the prevalence of data collection in our everyday lives. Then we wrap up the episode by talking about how MySudo, the world's only all-in-one privacy app, can help individuals live more privately, and how organizations can leverage privacy to acquire more customers and make them loyal.

Surveillance Capitalism Part 2: Our review of The Social Dilemma
00:35:16
In this episode, Rich and Sarah tackle Part 2 of their deep dive into the mysterious and manipulative world of surveillance capitalism by reviewing perhaps the most well-known documentary on the subject: The Social Dilemma. It's a shocking look into how Big Tech attempts to manipulate and influence us--all told through the words of Silicon Valley tech experts. To enhance the discussion, Maddie and Chrysoula join Rich and Sarah in studio to provide a Gen Z perspective on the documentary and topic. And it's truly an amazingly unique perspective considering both have never known a world without the internet. You will learn how the "attention economy" works and the methods tech giants like Google and Facebook employ to keep users engaged and collect voluminous amounts of data. All of this data is used to build sophisticated behavioral models that predict future behavior. These predictions are sold to advertisers who are practically guaranteed success. You will quickly see why these platforms are "free." If the product is free, you are the product. One of the creepiest techniques underlying surveillance capitalism is the psychological technique called positive intermittent reinforcement. In a nutshell, Big Tech builds addictive platforms that repeatedly reward users with positive reinforcement to trigger the production of dopamine, a chemical released within the brain that makes people feel good. By engaging on these platforms, users are sharing mountains of behavioral data that paint a clear picture of their lives, from political beliefs to deep-seated thoughts. This is an episode that will leave you ruminating for days, if not weeks. Documentary Link: https://vimeo.com/462049229 OUR SPONSORS: Anonyome Labs - Makers of MySudo and Sudo Platform.

Surveillance Capitalism Part 1: Our review of a landmark documentary
00:31:34
In this episode, Sarah returns to the podcast to help Rich dive deep into a review of VPRO's landmark documentary: Shoshana Zuboff on surveillance capitalism. Surveillance capitalism is the core of the business model for today's Big Tech companies like Google and Facebook. It's not about your email address, phone number or social security. Surveillance capitalism is all about collecting voluminous amounts of rich, behavioral data on platform users to develop models that predict future behavior. These predictions can in turn be sold to advertisers that are looking to reach niche markets. Predictive models developed by Google and Facebook are so sophisticated that they can practically guarantee advertiser success. The key here is that Big Tech is selling predictions, not data. In fact, the models are so advanced that they can even be used to manipulate users' behavior. Shoshana Zuboff is a Harvard Professor and author of the groundbreaking book The Age of Surveillance Capitalism. She has been researching the area of surveillance capitalism for years and asserts that in order for surveillance capitalism to work, it must happen through stealth and obfuscation. In other words, users of platforms like Google Search and Facebook must be so hooked on using these products that they don't see how the monetization model works. The more engaged users are, the more behavioral data that can be collected, and the more precise those predictive models can be. We hope this episode will spur some thinking about what type of personal data is truly valuable to Big Tech and get you to reevaluate your own use of various web-based products. And don't forget, as it has been said many times, "If the product is free, you are the product!"

Is the metaverse a privacy nightmare?
00:32:58
We're hearing a lot about the metaverse these days. So far, the technology seems more hype than anything. Even though market adoption is low, it's evident privacy will be an even larger concern in this emerging world than today's "flat" internet. In this episode of Privacy Files, Brian Tillman (Mr. Metaverse) fills in for Sarah to provide his perspective on the overarching privacy concerns in this immersive virtual world. With Mark Zuckerberg and Meta leading the industry in developing metaverse technology with Horizon Worlds, and given Zuckerberg's poor track record on data privacy, it's only natural to be concerned about users' personal data. Perhaps the most significant privacy concern in the metaverse is the collection of biometric data. This includes voice and facial recognition, iris scanning, eye tracking, and the analysis of unique body movement patterns that are unique to an individual. Rich and Brian also discuss the scope of the metaverse and cover some interesting applications of the technology.

How we're adapting to our digital lives being tracked
00:36:04
Special guest appearance by Anonyome Labs' UX designer Brian Tillman. 80% of people surveyed value their data privacy more than keeping social media platforms free to use. Yet, 72% aren’t willing to pay to protect their privacy. To know where you're going, you must know where you've been. In this episode of Privacy Files, Sarah and Rich examine how variables such as generational cohort membership and individual life experiences shape how people view privacy and their approach to protecting personal information. Are people altering their personal behaviors to achieve greater privacy? Or is society increasingly becoming more comfortable living life like an open book? We also welcome a special in-studio guest to provide a unique prospective from a younger Millennial.

Protect your privacy without being extreme
00:29:10
75% of Americans want to live more privately, but just don't know where to begin. In our third episode of Privacy Files, Sarah and Rich present some simple ways to live your digital life a little more privately without being extreme. In other words, there are some easy changes you can make today to protect your personal information without turning the effort into a full-time job. Did you know a SIM-based cell phone number can reveal almost as much about you (if not more) as a social security number? By sharing your personal cell number with only your close friends and family, you can start breaking the link to your personal data. When transacting with merchants, try using a VoIP number instead. Do you shop online? Banks can legally sell your transaction information to advertisers and data brokers. Instead of using a personal credit card, use a payment service like PayPal or a MySudo virtual card. Other low-effort tips include using a password manager (use a different password for every account login), disabling location tagging on social media posts, activating two-factor authentication (2FA), employing a virtual private network (VPN) and turning off data sharing for apps.

What does privacy mean?
00:29:18
In this episode, Sarah and Rich address the reality for those living their lives online: The definition of privacy depends on who you talk to. We tackle the often nebulous term of "privacy" from the perspective of what we like to call a "normie." Touching on many hot-button issues in the privacy space, we cover the big issues like smart devices, smartphone tracking, social media usage and online advertising. By explaining the risk exposures, we make it easy for you to decide what's important to you. This is another primer episode to get you warmed up as the newest podcast in privacy prepares to start opening up "case files" and examine in more detail the most pressing privacy dilemmas plaguing digital life.
