If you've been wondering why I haven't published any new articles in a while, Just a reminder that I actually wrote 25 short articles just in February! They were all published together with the launch of Privacy Guides' new Activism section in March. They're short articles offering practical tips and resources. You can find them all linked here, on the Privacy Activist Toolbox page 🧰👇 https://www.privacyguides.org/en/activism/toolbox/ #Privacy #Activism #DigitalRights

The surveillance economy and the surveillance state feed the same beast. They both trade in control, using our data as the currency to build a world of perfect monitoring. #SurveillanceCapitalism #DigitalRights

You might have heard of Tor already, yet never dared to try it yourself. Despite being around for decades, Tor is still a tool too few people know about. Tor is essential to journalists, activists, whistleblowers, dissidents, and people in vulnerable situations everywhere. Thanks to Tor, activists have a safe way to continue fighting for human rights and resist censorship from oppressive regimes. Here's how Tor works, and why you should support it. https://www.privacyguides.org/articles/2025/04/30/in-praise-of-tor/ #Privacy #Activism #Tor #DigitalRights

https://www.politico.eu/article/eu-brussels-launched-age-checking-app-hackers-say-took-them-2-minutes-break-it/ The EU’s age verification app is already proving why these systems are problematic. Within hours, researchers found insecure data storage, trivial hacks, and bypassed biometrics. Even verified accounts can be reused by others. These failures expose how fragile and unreliable age verification tech is in practice. #Privacy #DigitalRights #AgeVerification

What strikes me is how cognitive warfare is becoming something more than “just propaganda”. This feels different. More personal. More precise. Not only about misleading us, but about wearing us down — cultivating ignorance, fatigue, and passivity in the face of rights, injustice, and responsibility. This report helped me put words to that shift. #cognitivewarfare #weaponizingAI #digitalethics #ethics #digitalrights #democracy https://www.kas.de/en/web/canada/event-reports/detail/-/content/new-publication-wired-for-war-how-authoritarian-states-are-weaponizing-ai-against-the-west-with-migs-1

So-called 'digital safety' laws often create the perfect conditions for censorship by forcing platforms to aggressively police speech. In the name of protecting us, they hand governments and corporations the tools to silence dissent. #DigitalRights #SurveillanceState

The US government subpoenaed Reddit to unmask an anonymous ICE critic. A grand jury order — often sealed, often requiring the platform to hand over data without warning the user.

The horror of Age Verification is arriving in Canada 🚨🇨🇦 Contact your federal MP and the office of the Prime Minister this week to tell them you strongly oppose the privacy-destroying and inefficient measure. The time to push back is NOW: https://globalnews.ca/news/11797286/liberal-party-adopts-motion-social-media-ban-kids/ 'Prime Minister Mark Carney said last month that the idea “merits an open and considered debate in Canada,” although he does not have a settled view on it yet and said there were good points on both sides.' Share educational resources with them on the dangers of Age Verification: https://www.eff.org/age We do NOT want this nightmare in Canada. Fight back for your privacy rights! ✊🔒 #AgeVerification #Privacy #DigitalRights #HumanRights #MassSurveillance #Canada #CanPoli #CndPol

If a human right is in the way of your "innovative" technology, the expected solution should be to modify your technology to respect this human right, not to reduce the protections to this human right. Technology and innovation must be in service of humanity, not the other way around. #HumanRights #DigitalRights #Privacy #AI

📺 Samsung just settled Texas's smart TV surveillance lawsuit — the first major TV maker to do so. What they agreed to: stop collecting viewing data without explicit consent & rewrite confusing privacy screens. But: Sony, LG, Hisense & TCL are STILL fighting. And 2026 TV models track you MORE accurately than before.

🔍 Digital surveillance fact of the day: The average Smart TV sends your viewing habits to 5+ different data brokers every time you watch something. This includes: what you watch, when, for how long, and what you skip. Your TV knows you better than your therapist.
