IMPORTANT: While this article focuses on Mexico’s governmental surveillance overreach in forcing the registration of prepaid phone lines, the information herein can be applied no matter where you are, on both sides of the Atlantic. Alright lads and lasses. I’ve been asked to put this together because it can’t be “safely” done from within Mexico.…
June warned you the anti-freedom dragnet was widening. July showed you the border is where the Constitution is sent to die. August was the month they criminalised the act of keeping a secret. September is the month they tried to give their machine a new name, and a university enforced a sentence no jury had…
Samuel Tunick already faces five years in a federal cage for giving Customs a GrapheneOS duress PIN instead of a device containing his readable life. Georgia State University has now finished the sentencing that the indictment itself only started. Six hours before his first Geosciences lab, an automated email told him he had failed a…
June warned you the anti-freedom dragnet was widening. July showed you the border is where the Constitution is sent to die. August is the month the system’s mask publicly slipped. They are no longer nibbling at your private life. They are actively criminalising the act of keeping one. I have spent more than three decades…
The last few weeks have delivered a clearer signal than usual. There’s no longer any doubt that what seem like “isolated policy moves” are forming a consistent pattern: the zone of private life is being narrowed, one legal ruling, technical feature, and “safety” measure at a time.

I have spent decades protecting individuals, dissidents, and families from the creeping overreach of surveillance systems, both on and offline. And what I see crystalclear is that Palantir Technologies is not just another tech contractor operating internationally. The truth behind Peter Thiel’s AI spy operation is far more sinister than most people realize. Palantir’s technologies…
I’ve defended online privacy and free speech against growing threats for decades now. And during this time I’ve seen how small policy changes can gradually erode the personal liberties we all take for granted in our daily lives. Today I’m writing as someone who transitioned from big tech to carry out independent work protecting individuals,…
Although it’s basically been overlooked in the news cycle, the leak of Peter Thiel’s exclusive Dialog Network is not just another piece of tech gossip flowing through our social streams; instead it reveals how secretive gatherings like Bilderberg quietly steer global policy, technology, and economies, often at the expense of everyday citizens’ autonomy and privacy.…
As the descendant of Soviet dissidents I have spent almost three decades analyzing governance trends slowly getting out of hand on both sides of the Atlantic. But between the creeping technocracy and population oppression of the European Union since the 1990s and Canada in more recent years to the rapid takeover of Washington by corporate…
The internet is our open square, a place where anyone – from a blogger in Novosibirsk to a student in Nairobi – can freely speak their mind. But in Europe, new laws and corporate moves set for 2025 are building walls around this freedom, and they could affect you, no matter where you are. As…
