We deployed a bunch of free web apps in 2025, including sticktock.com for #privacy respecting views of #TikTok videos outside of China & USA. We're either going to retire some of these or crowdfund them.

Would you support a crowdfunder for sticktock.com ?

This week I guest lectured for the fourth time for Sheree Ip's class at Curtin University #Law 🤓

We walked through the #TornadoCash smart contract, discussing its ability to protect #privacy of transactions.

What's your take? Should #crypto mixers like Tornado Cash and #SamouraiWallet be banned?

VDP programs still work, if you actually care about #security and responsible leadership. Sure, you can trust us, but you will have even more reason to do that when you see us live and breathe #cybersecurity. Cheers! 🍻 privacysafe.app

Google is still collecting data from your old Nest thermostat. A security researcher discovered that Google is still collecting data from discontinued Nest thermostat models in millions of American homes.

Our @profdiggity.com on #Google Nest #privacy:
"Proximity signals alone can reveal when someone is home, when they leave and when they sleep... Over time, you get a very clear picture of household routine.”

Thanks to @mikaelthalen.bsky.social for digging into the insecurity & #enshittification of #Google Nest devices. This is why #RightToRepair and #FreeSoftware matters.

📢 Today we patched an issue with ivycyber.com that was reported to us via our #BugBounty program. Despite the influx of #AI slop, this report was legitimate and patched immediately with no issues for our customers / users. 🙏
