Something to hide - Why privacy matters and how to get yours back

Presented at THOTCON 0x8 (2017), May 5, 2017, 2 p.m. (25 minutes)

The mindset of "If you aren't doing anything wrong, you've got nothing to hide" is BS. We all have something to hide. Honestly, we all are doing something that someone would consider to be wrong. Using Open-source intelligence (OSINT), I'll demonstrate how easy it is get too much information. For those who decide that they do want privacy, we will discuss various tools and methods to regain as much control of your on-line and off-line information as possible. While TOR and VPNs hide your IP address, they do very little to protect your privacy. Much more is needed. Learn about anonymous phone numbers, purchases, email addresses and even anonymous home ownership.
