Thank you, Sarge. I am really glad that people actually seem to enjoy watching my style of Prepping videos, which are fairly nerdy and aren't based on current events. I'm happy with any views that I get. To me, UA-cam is a creative other for me. It's not my job.
@@TheUrbanPrepperI am making a Altoids stationary kit. Please suggest - 1) Transparent tape which can be cut without scissors 2) Liquid glue to be used repeatedly which can fit in Altoids tin 3) Compact slim stapler
Awesome to know I have been debating degoogling a personal phone if I have to get one so thanks again like the battery daddy this one helps me out good.
Google Pixel did a factory reset on me after two month of use, lost all my data on there. Can't recommend that device. It would also be impossible to have video calls as it would overheat all the time.
IMHO Just the fact alone that the battery is gonna last much longer is a huge selling point for making the switch xD Might be a better selling point to the average guy, most people dont seem to care about privacy..
I would bet that he did not; Further, I would bet that nobody did. Nobody else thought of this (or very few did), which means nobody tested it. IT IS a Very Good Idea. NEXT time there is a planned, scheduled Alert, everyone - and every Preparedness channel - should test this. Best would be to have two devices side-by-side, with one in the bag and the other free... thus, when one gets the alert, you can hear it and feel it vibrating... and check the bag to see/feel if the other activates. Again, this is a Very Good Idea.
Yeah, as I understand it, they have their thumb on the scale of search results, filtering out what they consider “misinformation” the definition of which is usually highly politicized. I use Brave search.
I guess I am too old school. I used my phone twice yesterday to call and talk to my mom. For me a phone is just that A PHONE. I usually have to top off my phone battery about once every two weeks. I personally think people have become to reliant on their phones. How many people know by heart (old school) all the important numbers, or are they written down because nobody does that anymore? My tablet and desktop is always left at home and are for internet NOT phone calls. Why? Because that is what the PHONE is for. The digital camera is what I take pictures with and I will keep it that way.
The sad part is that you are the perfect target. You don't live in their scammer world and it's too easy to steal your whole life, replicate it, get a few or dozen flying monkeys involved to tarnish it and bury you alive. Guess who gonna save you? Nobody. You can't tell on them because they are the scammers doing it.
I post all of my videos to UA-cam alternatives like Odysee, Rumble, Brighteon, UGETube, and Bitchute. Just in case someday UA-cam decides to get rid of family friendly UA-cam channels. :)
I always choose reject all on cookies. I'm going to have to watch this over a few times to get all that. I have been thinking about my privacy of late especially with Google and other apps. I have Linux installed on two of my pcs but for some of my apps it wasn't accepted. So I am looking to get my privacy back. Thanks for the headsup.
I have a vpn & reject cookies always however it seems way too much work just to set yourself up for a false sense of security. If people want to track your gps it's fairly easy to do as well as triangulation off your family & associates. (Not only do you need to be off-grid everyone you know needs to be off-grid too. Also how much can you really trust different apps??)
What security? This video is about privacy not security or anonymity. Turned off GPS in GOS is actually turned off. SIM triangulation is always on with a SIM. You could solve it by not using SIM to your name with SIM hotspot with imei and number changer then you could connect with family members through encrypted communication apps. Turn off the hotspot when you're going home and use wifi at home with on router VPN. You should do this if you're running from FBI or having paranoid schizophrenia. Another alternative is faraday sleeve, must have for burner phones.
@BarrelTitor91 The false sense of security that you're not a victim of mass surveillance & authorities aren't tracking you & those you associate with. All the methods you just listed have vulnerabilities authorities can/will exploit.
@@BarrelTitor91 bro I'm not a hacker or an expert of the dark web, go ask someone like Edward Snowden or Julian Assange if you want a detailed analysis. Everyone's system has different holes in it, & modern society has traded convenience over security & privacy. Your feelings don't count! Your experience isn't universal.
@@BarrelTitor91 all I know is if you haven't built every component, firmware, software, for every piece of technology you and your family & associates own how much can you really trust it?? Plus how much can you tell if someone hasn't broken in while you weren't looking?? People find critical zero day exploits all the time. Even TOR was hacked easily. Your feelings don't count! Your experience isn't universal.
Most things you do online don't require a physical ID card. Bad guys can do a lot with your private information. I think a lot of people use their phones on public WiFi (e.g., schools, hospitals, churches, airports, etc), especially for large file transfers. Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@Erica-cf1xb maybe in America. Here in the us my father just got his wallet with all his I'd and driver's licence and cards stolen, he just canceled the carda from the bank app, went to the national consulate with my mother to declare it was stolen, got a papper that acts as I'd and everything until he makes them new, and then went to the local police too, just to have backup. You literally can't steel anyone's identify here. Max you could steal it's internet account if you go and click and complete idiot phishing forms. But if someone here steals you whole wallet you just declare it stolen and make a new one. And if someone manages in a few hours to do get your money from the bank, the police statement will redo the transactions and you get the money back into your account. Everything is really safe. also here any transaction above 20euro, or how much you set it, needs either an approval from the phone app or if it's phisical the card pin. So if you steal a wallet good luck actually using it. Apart from cash everything else is disposable. and the same is true on the internet. USA must have really shitty security for you to need to make so many preps. Here you can't get rid of them because the banks wanna be sure it's you. and I'd theft is non existent.
How can we be sure their IP is never compromised? We cannot. See recent Github-related issues. Not saying this is not a bad idea, just saying it may not be the end all be all.
Tbh. Im fairly sure a lot of people wont switch their iphones to android and that includes me. If you want privacy theres a built in setting in icloud called private relay. Its the same as using a vpn. Apple is secured enough for me. Either way, thank you for making the video and giving us insight regarding privacy. 👍🏻
Not true. Most wear their regular face, smile, laugh, eat , drink, and won't say one word how they have completely transformed them whore life into yours. It's a big secret and the majority of people are doing it. It's too funny.
Another Great Video ! Just say NO to smart phones ! Have a flip phone from Consumer Cell that when you bump it , it dials out... My best cell phone recently was a mil. spec. flip phone and did not need to hold it funny to talk on ! Also use your smart phone only for out going calls only and then, turn the phone OFF and put in your Faraday bag ! And if you are paranoid, then remove the battery ! But maybe they are really tracking you ! ! ! Timothy Lipinski
LOL!! I wish. I get most of my phones used or for free. I have a lot of family and friends who just have old phones sitting around after they've upgraded to the latest. I usually snatch those ones up for various Prepping projects.
Instead of iPhones I thought preppers would be owning rugged devices instead. There's incredibly expensive & also budget rugged devices in the global market.

Hi from the UK 🇬🇧. Proton is great 👍
Happy to see you again, you make great videos, thanks for the info
I just downloaded new pipe but I get only music?
FYI- You forgot New Pipe on your PDF.
Welcome back! We’ve been waiting eagerly for your return. Greetings from Puerto Rico!
Thank you!
Can you explain how you install and use Kiwix?
Thanks for the update, TUP. Is there a privacy conscious voice command assistant for phones (and computers)?
Short answer: No. Every voice assistant requires sending your queries to a server owned by someone other than yourself.
How do you remove the international mobile equipment identity number? That still Apollo’s you to be tracked some what no?
Graphene is ONLY for Pixel devices, it is not supported on any other ( Samsung, or Motorola ) phones.
Another great video. How about a video about security and privacy in our everyday lives.
Google Pixel did a factory reset on me after two month of use, lost all my data on there. Can't recommend that device. It would also be impossible to have video calls as it would overheat all the time.
IMHO Just the fact alone that the battery is gonna last much longer is a huge selling point for making the switch xD
Might be a better selling point to the average guy, most people dont seem to care about privacy..
Google pixels have built in brick code, good luck. I had pixel 1 and 3xl brick on me over live air update no doubt.
Did you test your faraday bags during the emergency broadcast
I would bet that he did not; Further, I would bet that nobody did. Nobody else thought of this (or very few did), which means nobody tested it.
IT IS a Very Good Idea.

Why can’t I figure all this out on my own?
I can’t download so much stuff because my storage so small
Better take another look at Duck Duck. It’s not what people say about it.

I love targeted ads. Only thing id like it to improve on is to know when I've purchased the item so it can then start to show me accessories instead
I approve.
Are you still using a cell provider sim card, or strictly using wifi with a vpn?
I have several phones that I either got for free or for really cheap. Most of them just use WiFi + VPN. I do have SIM cards too though.
Can you talk a little about the difference between a SIM card on locked phone like Verizon vs micro SD card on android (is that unlocked)?
great video TUP!
Thanks Kevin!
This is so impressive!! What a wealth of information. ❤ Thanks for another great video
Thank you so much, Sarah!
Can you also start by deleting unused apps? I shut off my phones, router and computer to save battery and energy.
Nice! Yeah, I think that is smart, Kathryn.
A lot of great ideas. Thanks for the video
Thanks for watching! Good to see you.

How can they steal your identity without your physical ID card? Also who uses public wifi? I mean mobile internet is dirt cheap.

It's too easy. Just have a friend or family member who is completely gone from reality. There is nothing they won't do to destroy everything.

You're joking right? Do you know they can log everything? Use TOR instead or free VPNs that did not give police any data.

Definitely not another FBI designed phone....
Only FBI informants wear Guy Fawkes masks in 2023.
