I literally don't know how anyone has a healthy experience on this website.
I bought a drawing tablet and learned Illustrator for this last video as stock libraries wouldn't be able to properly visualize historical examples of steganography. It took a long time and was fun! I'm not sure it's possible to do anything artistic on a computer without slop accusations. 🤷🏻♂️

All those creators making sponsored videos for AI companies are probably wondering why their memory cards cost 238% more than they did last year.
Maybe Unitree should have offered more than a $600 bug bounty. 🤷

Opposing government surveillance is a foundational American principle. The next elections aren't red vs blue, it could be your last chance to regain privacy and autonomy.
It took nearly 2 years, but it seems like America is finally paying attention. 🙏🏻
I found out about the Flock CEO's personal emails to law enforcement agencies across the country from police departments I had consulted about cybersecurity, as they reached out to warn me about his dangerous language regarding my videos.
"He Hacked Flock Cameras. What He Found Was Worse Than Expected" Dr. Jon Padfield(www.youtube.com/@businessref...) visits with @bennjordan.bsky.social and Boy what a conversation do they have. Want to learn more about Flock this weekend? This is it! #DeFlock #AI www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_vj...

If there's one takeaway from everything I learned from my research and interviews in the last year: It's extremely likely that a large-scale cybersecurity attack will be successfully carried out on US infrastructure in the next year. And it will have been completely preventable.
"You said Garrett [Flock's CEO] did that. I didn't. I didn't lie about this. That is that is true. But also, we all have a boss in some ways of Donald Trump. Just because he lies doesn't mean that." 🙄 #DeFlock #Surveillance #Privacy #AI #tech youtu.be/wntdRIgAe_U

The reason a lot of these infrared surveillance attacks work poorly is because infrared is not a specific frequency or color. It's an entire EM spectrum. All visible light wavelengths sit between 400nm and 700nm. Infrared goes from 700nm to beyond 100,000nm.
Charles Barbour 🔥🔥🔥🧊🔥🔥🔥@csbv.bsky.social · 3w agoHow bright a would an IR light have to be to make the camera useless?
If you vandalize a Flock camera, the city is contractually obligated to pay Flock to replace it. In the end, a new camera is installed and Flock makes additional revenue at the expense of the taxpayers. A better strategy is to build support for elected leaders that will terminate the contract.
Saturday Salon forged a cease and desist letter and shared it on their official profile. They put themselves and others in legal jeopardy and handed Flock a win by making critical press seem hyperbolic. I apologize for not fully vetting this, as Flock had sent frivolous letters in the past.
A city near Austin, TX wants to turn donated parkland into a datacenter. If you're nearby, join Louis Rossmann tomorrow in speaking your voice. consumerrights.wiki/index.php?ti...
Oh cool, an Easter egg feature that traps you in a driverless car and kidnaps you when it's decided you've misbehaved. Imagine what a hacker group or ICE can do with this. The fact that this is even functionally possible is horrifying.
America's 200th birthday (1976) verses America's 250th birthday (2026).
Happy to see DHS employees got the holiday off to spend with their families.
I love how so many people can watch my 45m long video framing a global post-capitalist mechanism and assume that I'm not familiar with Karl Marx yet.
