Q & A

Why is personal data considered valuable and sought after by various entities?

Personal data is valuable because it paints a detailed picture of an individual's identity, preferences, and behaviors. Entities like hackers, governments, and corporations seek this data to exploit it for surveillance, marketing, or other purposes.

What is the main issue with using a single email address for all online accounts?

Using a single email address for all online accounts centralizes your information, making it vulnerable to data breaches. If the email or password is compromised, it can lead to unauthorized access to all connected accounts.

Why is it recommended to use a password manager and multiple email addresses?

A password manager helps create and store unique, strong passwords for each account, reducing the risk of breaches. Multiple email addresses prevent linking personal accounts to one another, minimizing the damage if one account is compromised.

What are some privacy-respecting email services mentioned in the script?

The script recommends using 2D, Nodameil, Mailfence, and ProtonMail as privacy-respecting email services that should be signed up for over the Tor network.

How can using biometrics for security potentially compromise privacy?

Biometrics like fingerprints or face scans can be forcibly taken by governments or other entities to unlock personal data or devices. Unlike passwords, they cannot be changed once compromised.

What is the recommended approach for real-time communication to ensure privacy?

The script suggests using end-to-end encrypted messaging services like Signal, Element, or peer-to-peer solutions like Briar or Yami to avoid interception of messages by unauthorized parties.

Why should browsers like Google Chrome be avoided for privacy-conscious users?

Browsers like Google Chrome are created by companies that profit from user tracking. Their default settings may not respect privacy and could include hidden tracking features that are difficult to disable.

What is the purpose of using a hardware security key for two-factor authentication?

A hardware security key adds an extra layer of security by requiring a physical device to access accounts. If lost or damaged, it renders the accounts inaccessible, which can be a last resort to protect privacy in extreme situations.

How can using a VPN enhance privacy while browsing?

A VPN encrypts internet traffic and hides the user's IP address, making it difficult for ISPs, governments, or other entities to track online activities or link them to the user's identity.

What is the significance of using the Tor network for anonymous browsing?

The Tor network provides anonymity by routing internet traffic through multiple proxy servers, making it challenging to trace the user's real IP address and browsing activity.

How can users avoid being tracked by online services that collect personal data?

Users can avoid tracking by using privacy-focused alternatives to mainstream services, employing browser privacy settings, using ad blockers, and creating separate browser profiles for different activities.

Keywords

💡Personal Data

Personal data refers to any information that can be used to identify an individual, such as search queries, entertainment choices, and web history. In the video, it is highlighted as valuable and sought after by hackers, governments, and corporations for profiling individuals. The script emphasizes the importance of protecting one's personal data to prevent exploitation.

💡Privacy

Privacy in the context of the video is the state of being free from unauthorized intrusion or surveillance. It is a central theme, as the script discusses various methods to enhance privacy and anonymity online, such as using password managers and avoiding services that compromise personal information.

💡Decentralization

Decentralization, as mentioned in the script, involves spreading out online accounts and information across different platforms and services to reduce the risk of a single point of failure. This is exemplified by using multiple email addresses and password managers to prevent data breaches from affecting all linked accounts.

💡Password Manager

A password manager is a tool that securely stores and manages login credentials for various online accounts. The script recommends using one to prevent the reuse of passwords across accounts, which can lead to security vulnerabilities if a single account is compromised.

💡Data Breach

A data breach occurs when unauthorized individuals gain access to sensitive information. The video script uses the term to illustrate the risks of using a single email and password for multiple accounts, as a breach in one service can expose all connected accounts to hackers.

💡Anonymity

Anonymity is the state of being unidentified or unrecognizable. The script discusses the use of technology and practices to maintain anonymity online, such as using a VPN, Tor, and avoiding biometric data that can be forcibly obtained.

💡Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Two-factor authentication is a security process that requires two methods of verification to access an account. The video mentions using a hardware security key for 2FA as a more secure method than SMS or email verification, which can be intercepted.

💡End-to-End Encryption

End-to-end encryption ensures that messages can only be read by the sender and the intended recipient, with nobody in between able to decrypt the content. The script recommends using messaging services with this feature to protect the privacy of real-time communications.

💡VPN (Virtual Private Network)

A VPN is a service that creates a secure, encrypted connection over the internet, masking the user's IP address and location. The video discusses using a VPN to enhance privacy by preventing ISPs and governments from tracking online activities, but also cautions about the importance of choosing a trustworthy provider.

💡Tor Network

The Tor network is an anonymity network that allows users to browse the internet without revealing their IP address. The script mentions using Tor for anonymous browsing and signing up for services, but also warns about the potential risks if not used correctly.

💡Browser Fingerprinting

Browser fingerprinting is a technique used to track users based on their browser's unique characteristics, even without cookies. The video script suggests using certain browsers and add-ons to prevent this type of tracking and maintain privacy.

Highlights

Personal data is valuable and often exploited by hackers, governments, and corporations.

Most people wouldn't share their internet history with close ones, yet they risk sharing it with entities that may exploit it.

The solution to tracking is to take privacy into your own hands by changing habits and using technology.

Decentralizing online accounts is crucial to prevent data breaches affecting multiple services.

Using a single email and password across accounts concentrates information and increases vulnerability.

A password manager like KeePassXC or GnuPass can secure passwords and prevent hacks.

Avoid password managers that require payment or online registration as they may compromise anonymity.

Creating separate permanent and burner email addresses helps maintain privacy and security.

Services like 2D NodA, MailFence, and ProtonMail are recommended for permanent email accounts.

Temporary email services like TempMail are useful for short-term or throwaway accounts.

Creating a threat model helps identify who and what you are securing your online activity from.

Biometric data can be compromised by law enforcement, so passwords are a safer option.

Using a hardware security key like a U2F adds an extra layer of security for accounts.

Avoid SMS for messaging as it's not encrypted and can be easily intercepted.

Signal is an easy-to-use, open-source messenger with end-to-end encryption.

For more privacy, federated services like Element or peer-to-peer solutions like Briar or Yami are recommended.

Securing the browser is essential; avoid browsers like Google Chrome that may track users.

GNU IceCat is a spyware-free browser with good security settings, but has limitations with JavaScript-heavy sites.

Using mpv with YouTube URLs can bypass JavaScript limitations and age restrictions.

For a more user-friendly browser with security, consider Firefox with additional privacy settings and extensions.

Decentraleyes add-on can block unnecessary connections to CDNs and speed up page loading times.

Avoid search engines that track you; use DuckDuckGo, StartPage, or Sir X for more privacy.

Implementing multiple browser profiles for different use cases can reduce tracking.

Using a VPN like Mulvad can increase privacy by shifting tracking responsibility away from the ISP.

When using a VPN, avoid mixing clearnet and VPN accounts to prevent linking activities to your identity.

For true anonymity, use Tor, but also block JavaScript and avoid linking accounts to your real IP.

Spreading information about privacy tools like Tor can increase its effectiveness by making it harder to identify users.

Avoid online services known for tracking users, such as Google, Facebook, and Twitter.

Securing home Wi-Fi, computers, and smartphones, as well as anonymous internet surfing, are also important aspects of privacy.

Transcripts

your personal data is very valuable

it is no wonder that hackers governments

and corporations are trying to collect

and catalog

everything about you your search queries

your entertainment choices web history

online chats and posts all paint a very

detailed picture

about who you are most people wouldn't

even share their internet history

with the closest people to them in their

lives so

why would you want to share it with

people that actually have

an incentive to exploit all of your

personal data

and have access to it there is a

solution to

stopping the tracking though and that is

to take matters into your own hands

and start protecting your data by

changing habits

and using the correct technology to

enhance your privacy

and anonymity now right off the bat

i will tell you that these steps are

going to add

a bit of a challenge to your computer

and browsing habits

the web is designed in such a way to not

be private

and combine that with a life of people

being conditioned

to trade off their privacy for

convenience

well i'm going to show you will enhance

your privacy

and your security but it's going to make

things a bit more complicated

the first step is to decentralize your

online accounts

most people are using a single

non-privacy respecting

email to sign up for everything from

netflix to spotify

grubhub uber etc and what's worse

is they will oftentimes use the same

password across all of these accounts

including

the email and there is so much of your

information that is going to be

concentrated within that single email

address especially if you're also using

it

as your primary email for correspondence

and if you're reusing passwords well

if any one of the services that are

connected to it has a data breach that

releases that password

your email and password will become

available to that hacker

and then they have access to everything

and vice versa if the email

service itself has a breach then all of

the accounts that are connected to it

become vulnerable to hacking the

simplest way to prevent this

issue is to use a password manager

along with multiple different email

addresses

this is this way your accounts they

can't get hacked

and your services cannot be personally

linked to one another

for securing your passwords i recommend

using

keepassxc or gnu pass

you should really avoid any password

manager solution that asks you to pay

money

or does an online registration and

syncing of your data to their cloud as

that would compromise the anonymity of

it

unless you use tor and a burner email to

sign up for it

then it's going to be a little bit safer

than just using clearnet

and an email that is connected to your

identity

but again i just suggest using an

offline password manager

and that brings me to the next subject

which is creating

your email accounts so

there's two kinds of email services that

we'll be using here

there are permanent email addresses and

burner emails permanent emails are ones

that you are going to be using

indefinitely you'll want to use these

either for

sending and receiving email for the

foreseeable future

or doing any kind of email

correspondence

using it for things like job hunting and

so on and so forth

uh or if you need to get alerts for

accounts that are created

using this email so the services that i

would recommend for using this

is 2d noda mail fence and

protonmail these services they should be

signed up for over the tor network

and it's also advisable to request a new

identity

on the torn network meaning you get a

different ip address

before creating each one or if you're

going to

create multiple emails using the same

provider

and that way none of those different

email addresses can be linked to one

another

in any way and for temporary email

you should be using tempmail.org

tempmailow.com or gorilla mail

and these are mostly helpful for

creating

what you would call throwaway accounts

so these are going to be accounts that

you either don't really care about

or something that you're just going to

be using for a short period of time

like to redeem some type of coupon or

something like that

now one important thing to keep in mind

when you're going to be

securing your online activity is to

create a

threat model so this is going to be who

and what you are actually going to be

securing from

if your threat model includes law

enforcement

then you should take the additional step

of not using

any biometrics to secure any of your

data or devices

because fingerprints face scans and ira

scans

they can be forcefully taken from you to

unlock your data

and unlock your devices by governments

well

passwords cannot unless of course

you willingly give them up which could

likely happen

if you are subjugated to enhanced

interrogation techniques

so in addition to not using biometrics

a government threat model should include

a two-factor authentication with

a hardware security key like a ub

key for example and the thing about

using

a hardware security key is that if this

key were to become lost or damaged

all of your accounts that are requiring

it would become

inaccessible so this would be a last

stitch

a good last stitch effort if the glow

boys come knocking you can just

destroy your ub key and then all of

those accounts would be

inaccessible now we're going to talk

about

real-time communication for that there

are a few options

but this is where some additional work

needs to be done

for messaging you want to avoid sms

at all cost green bubbles on an iphone

would be an example of an sms

conversation

these communications are not encrypted

at all meaning that they can be

intercepted in plain text

by cellular carriers governments or any

hackers that are

snooping on the conversation so in order

to avoid

sms being used both parties have to use

the same kind of service that supports

end-to-end encryption and that's where

the tough part is going to come in

because

obviously you're going to need to get

your friends family whoever you want to

communicate with

to use one of these services that

they've probably never heard

of you know these services generally

aren't advertised

very much so it's going to be a little

bit tough to get normies to use them

but they're not terribly difficult to

use

the easiest one for noobs is going to be

signal so it's an open source messenger

that features

end-to-end encryption it also supports a

voice as well as video calling

so this is pretty easy to use but

there is a disadvantage to using

something like signal which is that

it's still a centralized service which

means that it's going to be more

susceptible

to backdoor access by any governments

the ownership of the service could also

very easily change

into the hands of someone who doesn't

really care so much about

the end user's privacy so

if this is more of a concern to you then

i recommend that you use and

convince your friend to use a federated

service

like element or use a peer-to-peer

solution

such as briar or yami

next we want to secure the browser

because this is another tool that is

often used by corporations to collect

information from people

so it's important to use one with good

security settings

out of the gate as well as to go through

any configuration

options to further harden it and it's

also a good idea to

not use a browser like google chrome

that is created

by a company that profits from tracking

because obviously there's going to be

incentive in there to have the default

settings

to not be privacy respecting as well as

to put hidden settings in there

that are still going to track you that

the user either can't easily delete

or cannot disable at all so a good

option for a spyware free browser that

meets all these requirements

right out of the box is going to be gnu

ice cap

now you will have limited options

for viewing sites that heavily rely on

javascript though

one very commonly used example would

be youtube so you can see

in gnu icecat when you try to load a

youtube video

it doesn't really play it kind of plays

like one frame

at a time if you hit the play button

sometimes you can refresh it

and it will sort of start playing the

video at first for a few seconds

but then as you can see it stops now

there are some ways to get around

something like this

um you'll want to download

mpv and use that to

be able to view youtube videos uh

whenever you

come across one in gnu ice cad so all

that you have to do

is copy the url we'll get rid of this

bit here

so copy the url and then open up a

terminal

and then you just type mpv and then

paste in

the video url

okay i had to pause and update

my youtube dl you can still update it by

the way there's

tons of forks of it available on github

you might not be able to just do it

through your package manager

so all you have to do because mpv

to do this particular function utilizes

youtube dl

is just download it from github the

updated one

and install it and then it should

automatically plug

into mpv but anyway as i was trying to

show you before

you could just type mpv followed by the

url

of the video that you're trying to watch

and

in ice cat it's going to be right before

this

and disable polymer equals true

and hit enter

and there's actually some pretty handful

things that you can do in here like for

example you can

step through frame by frame so this is

something that

not even youtube itself supports

now obviously you're not going to be

able to comment or leave a like or

anything like that within mpv so

if you really need to do that if you

need to actually interact with it

via your youtube account you're going to

want to

sign into youtube probably from a

different browser profile

or a different browser altogether

because again with good new ice cat

the javascript limitations make a lot of

those features not really work so well

and then you can do uh whatever you need

to do

with your youtube account uh also by the

way

using mpv to view youtube videos is a

way that you can

bypass age restricted videos so mpv

it's not going to ask you to verify your

age

youtube of course if you click on an age

restricted video it's going to ask you

hey

sign in to verify that you're over 18 or

whatever

you can just do exactly what i showed

you here copy that url

and paste it into the mpv command and

you're good to go it's also worth noting

that

this is usually lighter on your system

resources

than just watching a youtube video in

your browser directly

and it's not actually downloading the

video to be saved it's just streaming it

so

there's not going to be any privacy

concerns or

storage space concerns there either

for an easier to use browser that still

has good security settings

i would recommend using firefox however

you're going to want to change some of

your

security settings um certain things

like you don't want to store cookies you

want to just delete those

after firefox is closed you don't really

want

to autofill addresses or credit cards

and in your address bar you probably

don't want it saving browser history

browsing history bookmarks

uh anything else like that and you'll

also want to install

the ghax user.js

to automatically import the most secure

browser settings that disable things

like webrtc

uh geolocation and unique fingerprinting

and you're also going to want to install

an ad blocker

like u-block origin

that way you can selectively disable

javascript on sites because basically

all of the ads that are displayed to you

those are all driven by javascript

as we saw with gnu icecat it just

disables all of them

so you're not going to see any

javascript at all but

that breaks websites using ublock origin

you can go into the advanced user

settings

and also disable javascript here and

then

what that does is it basically shows you

individual scripts that are getting

loaded on

a webpage usually i would globally

disable third-party scripts and you

could just lock that so that's

automatically going to do it on every

new page

but then whenever you load another site

then it's going to show other domains

that you want to block scripts from

obviously two denoted they don't have a

whole lot of ads showing here but

if you're on a site that is heavy in ads

this is going to be really really long

and you can go through uh blacklisting

as many sites as possible or as many

domains as possible that are showing

scripts

until you get the site to a point where

it's still functional but it's just not

showing

anything additional that isn't necessary

for the site to actually work

and you'll also want to use the

decentralize

add-on for local content delivery

network emulation

so this is going to block unnecessary

connections to

cdns like cloudflare and google

and it can also speed up the loading

time of some pages by

loading the relevant web libraries

locally

on the user's machine now

while we're still in the browser you

should also avoid

using search engines that are built to

track you this means that

google and bing they should not be used

for your search queries moving forward

at least not within

the same privacy browsing profile

instead you should use services like

duckduckgo

or start page to emulate google results

in a more

private way what i would recommend most

though

is sir x as it is the most open source

uh well not open source but most open

and transparent search engine

that is currently available on the web

and finally you're going to want to

implement the use of

multiple profiles within the browser

for different use cases this is

useful for situations where you might

want to use

youtube to leave comments on your

favorite creators page

uh or maybe even upload a youtube video

if you're a content creator yourself

but if you just want to view other

random things that

you know you aren't going to need a

youtube profile for

to interact with it's best to just

browse to those pages

from another browser profile altogether

where you aren't signed into your social

media accounts

and that's going to prevent those

companies from tracking your watch

history

within the accounts themselves because

of course they

ultimately control the account they let

you have it for

free but anytime there's a service where

something is free chances are you are

the product

so this is going to reduce the amount of

information that they're able to harvest

from you

by not using it when you don't need it

and if you do

happen to stumble upon a video that you

want to

comment on or do something else that

requires an account

you know just keep in mind age

restriction doesn't require an account

to bypass

you can use mpv for this but if you do

need to interact with it

you can just copy the url of whatever

page you're on

and then go to about profiles

launch whichever profile you're going to

use and you can name these however you

want

and open that up and then you can

interact with that page

using your signed in profile and

you can take this a step further by

purchasing

a vpn and using specific

servers with specific browser profiles

uh for specific purposes and

this would even prevent your isp from

being able to link all of your different

activities

to your ip address that they give you

and same goes for any government

agencies that could subpoena your isp

for the browsing records now

keep in mind a vpn does

not anonymize you all it does is

shift the burden of privacy from your

internet service provider to the vpn

provider of your choice

and for this reason it is very important

to pick a vpn provider that

is as secure and anonymous as possible

and with these requirements your

vpn of choice should be mulvad

as far as i know they are the only one

that is a log

free vpn provider meaning that they

don't really store

any history of what you're doing on

their service uh they don't have a

history of selling user data

and they also have a pay-by-cash option

as well as the ability to

create an account without giving up any

user details

um so you have to be very mindful though

if you're going to

go to this extreme not to mix your

clearnet accounts

meaning accounts that you created on

your own ip address that your isp gives

you

and your vpn accounts uh for example if

you created an account from your real ip

address and then logged into it with

your vpn

when it's connected then those login

details are going to be collected

by the owner of whatever service the

account belongs to you know take

facebook as an example the time of day

and the ip

is going to be collected and now your

real ip address

and personal information that is

connected to that account

can then be connected to this vpn and

all it takes is one server because uh

like mulvade they offer you i think 600

different servers

and they're all going to have different

ip addresses but

you can figure out who an ip address

belongs to

fairly easily you know you can even tell

uh what

isps somebody is using you can tell

whether it belongs to a vpn you know

this is how

uh online services or online websites

they're able to ban entire ip ranges

like if somebody is just

abusing their platform over and over

again then

they'll ban the entire range of whatever

vpn service they're using or isp they're

using

but the same thing can go for tracking

you down and identifying you

it just takes one slip up one server

that gets connected

to an account made with your real ip

address

and then the whole thing is essentially

compromised they can say hey

you know we know that john smith here he

also uses

mulvad we know that for a fact even

though he paid in cash

and he created it in an anonymous way

without giving up any of his

user details but as long as you avoid

that

and you create the vpn account in an

anonymous way

meaning that you do it over tor and you

mail in

a cash payment option for your account

then

you're going to be good now for

situations where

you truly need to browse anonymously you

should resort to using tor

but again just because you're using tor

doesn't make you completely anonymous

you should also

block javascript as this can be used to

reach

through the three proxy hops of the tor

network and grab your real ip address

as well as hardware info about the

computer that you're using

which could uniquely identify you you

also shouldn't use

any accounts that are created on your

public ip address

especially the ones with your personal

identifiable information

because you've got the same problem as

using it with your vpn

those accounts they can easily link your

personal information

to the tor ip address that's in use at

the time and then track

all of the activity back to you um even

things that go

outside of that particular network like

say you signed into your gmail

over tor and then you go do a bunch of

other stuff with that same ip address

you're the only person in the world that

is probably using that ip address at

that specific time right like it can be

it can really be narrowed down to you

especially because there's not that many

tor users out there

that which is another thing you could do

by the way to increase the effectiveness

of the tor network itself

is to spread this information let other

people know about it because the more

people that are actually using

the tor network the more difficult it is

for any one person to be identified

on it and finally you should really just

avoid

online services that try to track you in

the first place

google facebook twitter they're all

designed to track you

every social media is purposefully

designed to track you

so it's very difficult to actually

create

and use these accounts especially when

they require

a phone number just to verify the

account during sign

up obviously your personal phone number

is going to be out of the question for a

private social media account

but if you all are interested in finding

out how to create

these accounts anonymously that require

phone verification

let me know as the process to do so is a

little convoluted

to really do it correctly and it's

likely going to require

another video on its own there's also

much more to be taken into account to

really protect your online

security like securing your home wi-fi

securing your computers your smartphones

and also how to just surf the internet

without

really revealing your identity so

i've done brief coverage of these

subjects already on my youtube channel

but if you're interested in a deep dive

into all of those subjects

let me know and i'll make another longer

video like this

covering those different subjects but

that's it for this one

really glad you stayed to the end hope

you enjoyed peace out
