🚨 Meta has decided to start training it's AI-models on EU user data 🚨

To exempt yourself from this:
1. Open your email inbox
2. Search for an email including "AI at Meta"
3. Click object
4. Fill out the form (stating a reason for objecting is NOT mandatory)

5. Spread the warning (especially among your less tech-savvy connections)

I’ve compiled an A-Z field manual specifically for people who use their voice to challenge power—especially on social media. It’s written for activists, organizers, journalists, and anyone who has reason to believe they might be on someone’s watchlist. Not theory—just facts, tools, tactics, and what you’re really up against. 📕 If you use your phone to speak truth, understand this: Your phone might already be speaking back—for them. 👉 https://www.amazon.com/Cybersecurity-Activists-Watermelon-Book-Condor/dp/B0F5NKC8Y5/ Stay alert.

Alright, let's talk about Google phasing out third-party cookies... whew, talk about opening a can of worms, right? 😬

You've got some folks cheering for 'more privacy,' while others are just calling it straight-up greenwashing. Honestly? As a pentester, I try to look at it pragmatically. At the end of the day, it's the actual facts on the ground that matter.

Sure, IP protection in Incognito mode *sounds* promising, but how well does it *really* hold up against determined trackers? That's a big question mark. And, let's be real, what's happening with the mountains of data Google *already* has collected on us? 🤔

Look, I get it – maybe tracking isn't the *worst* thing in the world. *But*, it's absolutely vital that we keep customers in the loop and properly informed about what's actually changing (and what isn't).

So, spill the beans: Where do you stand on this? Are you Team "Things are genuinely getting better" or Team "Just the same old story, different packaging"? Drop your thoughts below! 👇

Remember, prioritizing privacy means you're not just looking out for yourself; you're protecting your friends too! So before you hand over full access to your phonebook, think twice! Your pals deserve that protection just as much as you do!

Stop using the phrase: “I have nothing to hide.” It’s not about that, it’s about the choice of what data you want to keep for yourself.
