Ugh it's disappointing when you randomly go to your towns downtown for breakfast and see flock cameras everywhere and upon looking it up they city also has that that ring doorbell program where they can access those and other CCtvs for flock. its nuts. This is a system ripe for abuse and doesn't not increase safety it creates a perceived feeling of control that does not translate to better safety. I tried to create a well laid out post on facebook tagging my local towns groups and using hashtags but we'll see if it helps. just UGH... not liking this authoritarian timeline now. well ever.. but yeah now its in front of me. #DataPrivacy #Digitalprivacy

FYI: GPC could cut EU consent banners - but law must catch up first: A May 2026 study finds Global Privacy Control can partly reduce EU cookie consent banners, but regulators must first clarify how the GPC signal maps to GDPR. https://ppc.land/gpc-could-cut-eu-consent-banners-but-law-must-catch-up-first/ #Privacy #GDPR #CookieConsent #DataProtection #DigitalPrivacy

🚨 BREAKING: Google just changed the rules of the web.
Their new reCAPTCHA now REQUIRES Google Play Services to prove you're human. If you run GrapheneOS, LineageOS, or any de-Googled Android, you are being locked out of the internet.
Is privacy now incompatible with web access? We break it down.
🎧 New Ep 26 drops tomorrow at impracticalprivacy.com

I use Chrome for work and found that it has decided, without opt-in or opt-out, to create several `weights.bin` files that are several GB large. Deleting them means Chrome will reinstall them. Why this is bad is explained in https://www.thatprivacyguy.com/blog/chrome-silent-nano-install/ , but that blog misses that there is more than 1 weights.bin file.

'Man in smart glasses filmed me in London then told me to pay'
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cwy87wqz0q9o"...Alice contacted the account that posted the video of her, asking for it to be taken down. She told the man who posted it that it made her feel "humiliated".
In the email she received back, he said he would remove it as a "paid service".
…"It made me feel exploited, powerless," she said."

So #Google is doing this now.
This is an actual thing #reCAPTCHA is doing now.
Google. Honey. Bro. You need to put a domestic violence survivor, or at least someone whose job it is to think like a stalker onto every single product management team you have, because the teams you've got are putting forth such bad ideas and NOBODY FEELS EMPOWERED TO TELL THEM SO. Or they just don't listen.
Training people to open whatever QR code a website shows them on their phone is a massively bad idea. I'm honestly not going to be surprised to see an official reCAPTCHA version of the "paste this into the Run dialog box and press enter to prove you're human" scam.
From a #digitalprivacy standpoint, this allows Google to associate your browser fingerprint with your mobile device fingerprint, if they haven't already. "Don't be evil" my muscular buttocks.
If you see this, choose one of the other options to verify (the headphone or eye icons at the bottom).

🚨 The FBI is back to buying location data on Americans, no warrant required
FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed the agency resumed purchasing bulk location histories from data brokers. When Sen. Ron Wyden pressed him on ending the practice, Patel replied: “We use all tools… to do our mission.” No commitment to stop.
The surveillance state doesn’t need a warrant when it can just swipe a credit card

The era of "notice and consent" is ending. 👋
The new IEEE #MyTerms standard defines a machine-readable, enforceable contract for personal privacy. It replaces the endless consent-banner friction & weak enforcement with true two-party agreements.
Big challenge: Getting AdTech & power-holding businesses onboard. Adoption hinges on securing lighthouse partners.
A great initiative for customer agency! #DigitalPrivacy #IEEE #MyTerms #FutureofData

New post: Is 2026 the year digital freedom snaps, or the year you take it back?
Age checks become ID rails. Encryption gets squeezed. Compliance shapes speech. Self-custody gets more friction.
I break down what’s in motion for 2026, then share steps you can take without going off-grid.
