The eye contact leaves after a certain time seems like basic insecurity eveb tho the information is good wish people like this where more confident in themselves would make them lest likely to get bullied when there younger just based on what i can tell clearly "later in life" the jock is poor and these guys are rich but i wonder how many of these people die to suciide before there sucess due to bullying. Just a observation and no im not high im drunk.

Use a Hypervisor aka virtual machine (Vm) and a VPN, if you must use the dark web.
13:16 WannaCry
14:20 How can hackers shut down a pipeline?
I love seeing the Timex Sinclair ZX81 (or TS 1000, can't tell for sure) showing up in this video. Brings back so many memories. I still have my ZX81. AND . . . the 16K memory cartridge! 🙂
15:48 What is a firewall and how does it work?
16:40 Do VPNs really offer the anonymity we think they do?
ZX81... Nice.
18:55 Mom, Elmo needs to know our routing number
20:12 Are password managers secure
"firewall" hasn't heard this word for years 😂😂
21:54 How likely are you to catch a computer virus?
23:01 What hack has caused the most damage?
This man seems surely knows what he’s talking about. What a great video.
Regarding electronic voting,
however, he was too extreme in my opinion when he says that the less technological option is the best.
If your electronic process, devices, source code, data flow can be audited, you will probably end up with a more reliable process than involving hundreds of potentially biased humans.
Also, he’s mixing a contingency option (paper ballots) when something goes wrong with the actual much more efficient electronic solution.
23:40 the CIA triad
24:10 What was the name of the first computer virus?
Go Wolfpack! 🐺

I may or may not have phone phreaked in high school using tones recorded on a hallmark card that let you record and play back certain recorded tones. I may or may not have taken the bits out of that card and had them in a very small compact box with the different buttons for each function. It may or may not have worked swimmingly. Hypothetically, in this fictional comment that definitely doesn't represent reality or deeds that may or may not have been perpetrated.

10:55 it's really worrying how little people understand that simple fact, that "banning" will only make things worse. Something like what he said should be teached in school

More User Perspectives
Nobody asked great questions. All are stupid.
@cnsjjshewi28Free Kevin ❤
@joostInTheShellway too much advertising for a marginal hack.
@jkrmyersThis whole time Im just thinking about Hackers and the quote ""What's up, man? I'm the Phreak. The Phantom Phreak? The King of Nynex? I know you play the game."
@LKandShamWow….wait a minute are we supposed to believe Hackers haven’t hacked their own history?🤨
@rebyrae592The US can put trillions of dollars through the internet via the IRS but we can't trust voting electronically? FFS. The logic is so childish, this guy is a hack.
@toolshed47Great topic, great guest. Why does the shot keep jumping zoom every few seconds? Not going to sit through the rest because that's jarring.
@pentabularAlways black is bad
@jovanedwards3589His way of popularising the more complexe technical information is amazing!
@olivergalitch5584Cybersecurity in the late 1980s, early 1990s, was having a telnet port open on your system. Open to the world, that is. I've never done any hacking because it simply doesn't interest me, but even back then, I knew that it wasn't a very good idea to have a telnet port open.
@SeverityOneAre you guys surprised by his pronunciation of "malware"? Of is it standard?
(I'm not a native speaker)
Interesting that TikTok under US ownership has REALLY revealed how anti-free speech and dangerous it is.
@furiusstiles3214India does the voting really well too. Its a mix of physical and electronic setup.
Tbh a billion votes in paper will cause too much wastage XD
“People, have you ever met them” 😂
@snormaksa girl who has mutuals in cybersecurity hacked my iPhone in secret and she has access but she never directly confess .. so how can I prove it so I can report
@O790ll👏👏👏👏
@arturdebritogueirossouza5076A Sinclair Z-80, cool.
@StephenvanWijkWhat did I say about dark energy is built by people liking you and having good relationships I told you it’s not magic😂
@JonathanJollimore-h8vGiven the limited damage Sttuxnet caused, it was more like a gift to Iran's authoritarian regime.
@JamminLyricsDudeThis advs are crazy
@eddyson2985Pen and paper 👍 if it’s too private/unsafe to get public, don’t put it into digital form, yet alone internet.
Speaking for personal stuff, not business etc.
Question?
Is it possible to dumb it down for cyber security problems?
To prevent attackers....
