I found a couple of things to quibble with (left as an exercise), and I can't say I learned anything new. But on the whole, a good show. This presentation is way more scary, concentrating on the collection capabilities of top tier surveillance actors. Although "emerging" technologies are presented as if they were universally implemented already, I did learn some new things: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNZrq2iK87k Optimum solutions to "the end of privacy" necessarily include embracing the recording and archiving of our lives as the normal condition of our world. Love it or leave it. The "millennial generation" gets that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zo6UnKr6Bwg The new transparency only creates an abusive situation where and as access to everyone's data is restricted to a small number of already too powerful persons and agencies, who themselves are not subject to comprehensive surveillance on demand by members of the general public. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVTKHI5ovyc The well controlled USIC deception operation that exploited Edward Snowden achieved three objectives: It put the public on notice that they are being watched; put Congress on notice that the Security Services break any law they want with no consequences; and the PRISM release was timed to wipe the Manning trial all the way out of the news. A small corner of this operation peeks out here: https://youtu.be/R9K5I8SIwoM The Grugq presents operational security tips for "hacktivists," much of which is also very applicable to less illegal forms of dissident political activity - especially with regard to advance planning and coordination of activities that are likely to draw hostile attention from police agencies and/or private sector security contractors a.k.a. mercenaries: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8GPTvq1m-w :o) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJYVkZfAAoJEECU6c5XzmuqWeAH/1WBl7d/UKB9G3wNgbS3tOwU jO5oYeFCoib1tMnNFvrV9nTUVnUQWg4/troIBIf3a+M0frAp0ylKJC71fNXxJUrt DIgRYbp5yoBFebXgYpYRw9opZuhSyd5SWV4Bd4RN/8dUygJDhqfcdSmADJp7QTgn 65JvZ3+Tsk1dxoZ1GgnT93OqtatJIxaY3VQICx2xNa9joNVHU3GV4ACQ9hKTPWHr LIAzN9mDURT9xE13a9xuIcJaJ4j6famHXqdXtabMbZ5brbNkWTno+ZKjmKcvK2Tx YDhrK9baMbOKYrzPe9R3N0DI7Kvrupg53ATgUO/N9FwA3D4tQRyrD5UHaXvrDWQ= =HS2c -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
More on point, point of thread is to list whatever videos covering surveillance, datamining, privacy concepts that would be *an epiphany and impactful as fuck* to the common masses if the links were sent to them or posted on their forums or shared in the next presentation in their church or library or school club or wherever. Cpunks know these things, and even try to act to change them. But it takes re-education and then pressure by masses to actually shift things long term. Cpunks circlejerking within cpunk community does nothing. Personally pushing this shit out to the masses, one group or person at a time, is long past overdue. And Wikileaks on the election news just isn't deep enough to trigger real awareness of the actual depth, and resulting pressure.

I will help searching for more videos and materials to inform and to 'shock' a bit users of common technology services later. For now, I suggest to watch "The Joy of Data”, a recent BBC 4 documentary available on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xgp7BIBtPhk < https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xgp7BIBtPhk> (via Luciano Floridi) PS pretty OT: - Grazie mille, Luciano! One of my hamsters' name is Turing, yay! :D (But he and his brother, Tesla, are living with a friend now, because I adopted an almost dying stray cat named Mirimir today earlier. He's pretty sick, but still thinks hamsters are a good snack, meh! :P)
