Time Is Running Out: European Union's (Digital ID) eIDAS Wants Browsers To Require Gov Approved root Certificates, Under Premise Of Increasing Security -- Where It In Fact Adds Yet Another Party, Gaining Ability To MiTM Break HTTPS / TLS Encryption -- Revealing Passwords, Browsing, All In Plaintext Anytime you visit an https encrypted website, you are depending on the installed root cert trust to verify the encryption is in fact secure. When there is an issue with a certificate, from expired, to potentially malicious, your browser will try to warn you -- UNLESS you have malicious root cert installed prior to visiting. This also relates to a study facebook performed, requiring young people to install their root cert to observe browsing / history of users eIDAS Is The EU Digital ID Reform. Today We Focus On The HTTPS Cert Aspect As Time Is Running Out To Push Back Against This Reform We've seen similar actions by the Russian & Chinese governments... And the history for breaking https / TLS is there... *As my previous content covers:* Previously Covered Trustcor, And The Controveries Surrounding Their Defense / Law Enforcement Contracts For Breaking HTTPS By Installing root Certificate Trust In Browsers. It Takes Funding & Some Level Of Trust To Become A root certificate Authority... Watch that video here: https://youtu.be/TcYQCzhdEuc One solution mentioned in today's video is taking advantage of end-to-end encryption. Even with end-to-end encryption, you should be mindful before accepting new keys, and always check the fingerprint. A more simple solution is utilizing Tor / I2P / lokinet hidden services - which bake end-to-end encryption directly in the hidden service protocol, bypassing the need for browser validation of encryption, and handling such directly "end to end", from Tor / I2p router client, to the destination Tor / I2P client. *SHARE IN THE COMMENTS* Join me today in this.

What is metadata and how can it be used to uniquely identify users online (across accounts, machines, networks, authors)? Even if using a VPN, or Tor router: if you choose "bad programs" (with excess or plaintext metadata) this can be used to uniquely identify. For max online safety, choose programs with low metadata retention and opt for protocols with some type of obfuscation/encryption. Privacy is not about having something to hide- privacy is about being smart in an age where data brokers help run election campaigns. Privacy is about respect and protecting yourself online from the unknowns. Did you know health/insurance companies buy personal data to raise insurance rates for hobbies as innocent as surfing/hiking (USA 2017 law). My choice is to maximize privacy and help others do the same to prepare for the future unknowns. I believe privacy will become a more important topic as it delves deeper into our lives as "the new oil." There is more to metadata than simple unique tags. We can also look at unique information between users to identify them via typing patterns, interests, and history. ------------------------------------------------------------------- MY PAGES/LINKS/EXTRAS: DONATIONS/SERVICES: CASHAPP: $HumanRightsTech BMAC/BLOG: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/politictech BTC: 3QDdTcLwLTPXKMBp5dLUhKJG6KbDxWsYWS BACKUP BLOG: https://politictech.wordpress.com​​​​​ ODYSEE VIDEO/FILE CHANNEL: ' https://odysee.com/$/invite/@RTP:9​ ' PEERTUBE: https://tube.tchncs.de/video-channels/privacy__tech_tips/videos BRIGHTEON: https://www.brighteon.com/channels/righttoprivacy BITCHUTE: https://www.bitchute.com/channel/yourprivacytv BRANDNEWTUBE: https://brandnewtube.com/@RightToPrivacy​ (NEW) Ethical Human Rights Tech Git Onion (Tor Hidden Service) Server/Platform Open To New Users Now: http://gg6zxtreajiijztyy5g6bt5o6l3qu32nrg7eulyemlhxwwl6enk6ghad.onion https://www.gitlab.com/Aresesi:​​​​ some of my stuff (see my above Odysee for file downloads as well- most updated always found on gitlab (here)) https://www.github.com/RightToPrivacy​ (privacy scripts and more) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Metadata intro 02:14 Metadata between connections (apps open) 04:38 MITM not necessary 06:02 Metadata Best Practices ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OtkDa0A9tuk
