Here’s the stories for the week:
Jack #Dorsey’s #Bitchat - The Real Story: The tech mogul Jack Dorsey released a censorship proof messaging app in late June - named Bitchat. It runs a #bluetooth#mesh network, end to end #e2e#encryption, and rolling IDs and is picking up traction. I share my thoughts on the app, and concerns I have - but that’s not even the real story. I think Jack has a bigger message than just the app.
World’s First #eSIM Hack: A security lab out of Poland just demonstrated a hack on one of the largest SIM providers for IoT devices. We’ll get techy in our understanding and ask the question, could this impact our phones?
#DigitalID, Coming Soon To #Mexico: The Mexican government has signed a new #Biometric#ID law, known as the CURP. How is this enforced and what does it mean for Mexican residents? Find out today.
Decentralized #Video Conferencing: Recently I’ve been relying more on video conferences instead of calling people, especially while traveling. Good thing I’ve got the #Jitsi app, I’ll show you my setup!
