Hidden inside most modern TVs is something called ACR, Automatic Content Recognition. It tracks everything you watch and sends it to third parties for ad targeting and profit.

The FBI is calling for “lawful access” to encrypted data on iPhones and Androids. But weakening encryption for law enforcement means weakening it for everyone. Security shouldn’t come with a backdoor.

Incognito mode doesn't mean invisible. Here's what it really does:

✅ No local history saved
✅ No cookies or form data kept
✅ Good for logging into multiple accounts

❌ Doesn't hide your IP
❌ Doesn't stop tracking by websites
❌ Doesn't protect from your ISP or employer

India’s court just ordered a nationwide block of Proton Mail—because it wouldn’t hand over user data.
Encrypted email isn’t the problem. Censorship is.
This is a massive overreach against privacy and digital rights.

Using privacy extensions? Ironically, they can make your browser more unique — and easier to fingerprint.
A large part of privacy is about blending in, not standing out.

Using a VPN? That’s a great start—but not a privacy magic wand. 🧙‍♂️

Logging into Google (Gmail, Drive, etc.) while on the same VPN you use for anonymous activity can link your identities.

Google tracks IPs, logins, and devices. Stay sharp. Stay separate.

Think your encrypted email keeps you private?

Not quite. Metadata still reveals:
📧 Who you talk to
🕒 When you talk
📌 Often, what it’s about
🌐 Where it’s from
📦 How big it is
That’s all surveillance needs to profile you. Encryption ≠ invisibility.

Did you know? Your phone's biometrics aren't protected by the 5th Amendment! Courts ruled police can force you to unlock devices with fingerprint or face ID, but can't compel passcodes.
Why? "Something you know" is protected speech, but "something you are" isn't. #DigitalRights
