TBOT Show #1

WATCH THE FULL SHOW ON SUBSTACK

Hey peeps,

Its Hakeem! We’ve just released the first episode of the new #TBOT show which will be published every Friday from now on.

🔥 My focus with this show is to give you the most important tech stories every week in about 20 minutes (ain’t nobody got more time than that) - all with recommendations.

⭐ PLUS - one cool tech trick or open-source solution every week.

This week we’ll discuss:

• REAL ID: In early May, travelers are now ‘required’ to use REAL ID. So what is it? We discuss the origins of REAL ID in the 9/11 commission report and how REAL ID becomes the foundation for biometric ID, and how you can opt out at the airport.
• Siri’s Listening: Apple settles $95M to a lawsuit alleging Siri has been listening to you without your consent. The lawsuit cites a whistleblower who tells us about Apple’s dirty secrets.
• IRS vs Crypto: The IRS is sending out a new form trying to catch people who lied on their tax returns about owning crypto. How’d they get the info? They demanded it from Coinbase. You won’t believe what all they received. This is why we use non-custodial wallets.
• Google’s Antitrust Situation: The DoJ ruled that Google had a monopoly on the search market and is getting ready to ‘remedy’ the situation. What’s going to happen with Google? Listen in for the details and the history of antitrust lawsuits in the US.
• Unstoppableswap, swap BTC for XMR without needing to trust a third party.

We’ll be publishing text posts and clips of each of these stories next week!
