Here are this week’s stories:

Watch on Substack

FIFA Cup Monitored by Drones: Anti-drone tech is being used in 11 major cities for the FIFA worldcup. We’re talking anti-drone surveillance, drone first responders, and interceptor drones that fly at incredible speeds.

Telegram’s Deanonymization Risk: A new security paper indicates that Telegram has been sending unique device keys over the internet completely unencryped. This was the last straw for me. I’m moving platforms.

UK & CA Laws: The UK just put out a new fact sheet on their Social Media laws for under 16 year olds, and Canada just put out the most aggressive expansion of police powers we’ve seen.

SimpleX Chat: Can this peer to peer messenger replace Telegram? Let’s find out with our solution for the week.
