⚡️Transferring Email Identities with ImapSync
@takebackourtech

As part of my name change to Hakeem I've had to move 5GBs of email from my old inbox to to a new one. All this to change an email address but keep my emails.

Thankfully, software like imapsync makes it easy. Shout out to the legend Gilles Lamiral from France who developed the software and licensed it under the most software 'free' license that I know of.

"0 No limits to do anything with this work and this license.
1 GOTO 0"


His software also works with transferring Gmail and Office365 accounts - although there are some caveats as these big tech services make it a hell to get your data off of them.

There's also a web interface for the service that he runs completely for free. Please consider donating or getting support time.

With around 75K emails in my inbox, this whole process should take around 8 hours... - I should really get into the habit of cleaning it more often.

⚡️PREVIEW: Food Forest Technology
@takebackourtech

Today I hung out with the Jim Gale of food forest abundance and took a tour of his property in St. Cloud, Florida. We talked about how the community manages to stay completely off-grid for water, power, and delicious nutritious food.

I will upload this in the next week or two, make sure you are signed up to our mailing list. :)

⚡️Tree.Market - a P2P Free-Market on the Dero Blockchain
@takebackourtech

tl;dr - P2P Private/Free Market is crowdfunding a token that gives you lifetime features on the platform. You can support and get lifetime features until midnight tonight.



Its been one of my dreams to see a P2P market spun up so that people could exchange freely with one another using a private cryptocurrency. I even gave building one of my own a shot in 2022 with Above Market, which I ultimately let go of.

Now I'm glad another team is taking up the banner for a project like this, Tree.Market is a P2P marketplace built on the Dero blockchain. The market is non-custodial (your funds stay on your wallet), is private by default, and has plans to be fully self-hostable down the line.

There are a lot of great features planned such as the creation of stores, building reputation, messaging systems - all within a web application.

In order to get some funds to get the development started, they just launched the SEED lifetime token which will give you all advanced features on the market forever. This is typically $299 but people will receive 2x the amount of tokens, meaning that its really $150.00

I'm getting my lifetime token in the hopes that the team will push the development forward into a usable web application. Right now they have the alpha version working with the Tree Market crowdfund.

You can currently purchase the lifetime token in Dero, Bitcoin, XMR and other currencies.

https://tree.market

If you want to hear from the founders - here's their interview on The Conscious Resistance.

Here's their Github!

As development progresses I will be sure to get the founders on for an interview.

⚡️Apple & Google WiFi Surveillance Can Track Death & Destruction
@takebackourtech

Chances are, if you’ve used Google Maps or Apple Maps, you’ve contributed to one of the biggest surveillance databases in the world.

Known for their accuracy, big tech maps can locate your phone within a few meters and even indoors.

No, these big tech maps aren’t using GPS - they’re using WPS or Wi-Fi positioning system.

These WPS systems collect millions of WiFi networks and tag them with locations.

Researchers in Maryland discovered through a flaw in Apple’s WPS that they could gather at least 2B (2 Billion) WiFi location points by requesting WiFi networks at random.

That’s enough points to cover the world’s populated areas, notably China was nearly empty except for a few thousand points. Looks like even the CCP can’t opt out of this surveillance.

We did the work for them.

When you use Google or Apple maps, your phone will send the nearby WiFi networks along with their signal strength to the WPS. The WPS will look up these networks in a database that has hundreds of millions of networks along with their location. The calculation is then performed on the server for Google location’s service, and on the phone for Apple location’s service - which sent a list of 400 additional WiFi points back.

And this is how you get a precise location for your phone. Any new WiFi networks you scanned are potentially added to the WPS databases.

Apple & Google have made their users the instrument of their surveillance.

And the things you can do with this surveillance are harrowing. The researchers were able to see how many WiFi access points went offline in Gaza due to the constant bombardment that caused the deaths of 40,000 civilians.

Similarly the researchers were able to see the damage from the August 2023 Maui fires, and the emigration of people from Ukraine to escape forced connoscription.

Apple, Google and any organization they choose to share this WiFi data will have incredible capabilities. Don’t worry though - because these companies care so much about privacy - they give you a way to opt out.

Solutions

Add _nomap to the end of your WiFi SSID (name), Google and Apple promise not to index Wifi networks ending with those names.

Turn off your WiFi network and use ethernet cable.

⚡️Teams of AI Threaten Humanity
@takebackourtech

AI is rapidly evolving through the use of Multiple-Agent Systems (MAS). The simple explanation for this leap is that MAS are composed of multiple interacting agents, which are entities that can perceive their environment and take actions to achieve specific goals.

MAS can also compete with one another, which generally prepares them for a higher learning rate in comparison to other AI systems. Single agent systems like a software program, perform tasks independently without interaction with other agents.

In the recent NVIDIA GTC keynote conference, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang proposed a future where socioeconomic outcomes are not driven by humans, but instead are entirely based in advanced, autonomous AI utilizing MAS that can manage a project from start to finish without any human input.

“How do we build software in the future? It is unlikely that you’ll write it from scratch or write a whole bunch of Python code or anything like that…It is very likely that you assemble a team of AIs.” Huang suggested.

⚡️Hakeem Anwar Joins Fearless Podcast
@takebackourtech

TBOT’s Hakeem Anwar caught up with the Texas Boys on the Fearless Podcast recently. He got into how your cell phone is the ultimate invasion of your privacy.

Here are some highlights:

· Hakeem first realized the power of bringing people together using technology when he was tasked with building a Twitter clone in the big tech corporate world.

· He explains meeting activists Derick Broze and John Bush in 2019 and beginning to work on security systems for the Freedom Cell networks.

· He discusses tactics that Chinese hackers would use (overactive spam messages) to make sure people were not able to see event details for the Freedom Cell network in Telegram and therefore would not be able to see sign up links to register for the events.

· How you can use an infrared camera to see how an iPhone takes pictures of your face and environment every 5 seconds.

· How Apple leverages Apple Intelligence and ChatGPT on iPhones in order to leverage training data for invasive privacy tactics (like Apple and Microsoft working closely together).

⚡️VIDEO: Microsoft Disconnects Online Communications for Palestinians
@takebackourtech

Palestinians living abroad are reporting that Microsoft has abruptly closed their email accounts—like Microsoft owned email service Hotmail—without warning or verifiable reasons, leaving them cut off from other essential online services.

The sudden account closures mean that many Palestinians living in the US find themselves unable to access bank accounts, respond to job offers, or use Skype to communicate with family members in Gaza, where the ongoing conflict with Israel has made communication impossible.

⚡️Did the AT&T Hack Uncover a Surveillance Program?
@takebackourtech

Another day, another data breach from an organization that should really know better. Last week, telecommunications giant AT&T informed shareholders of a data leak taking place all the way back in April, which impacted every single AT&T subscriber.

The leaks didn’t just contain the phone numbers involved, but also included the cell-site identification records which can show approximate location of the caller.

⚡️Telegram CEO's Arrest, Is Telegram Still Safe?
@takebackourtech

My deep dive video into Telegram, with a focus on historical context. After the news of Durov's arrest, all signs point to him genuinely protecting user data.

But now that he is in custody, is that user data at risk? Will he be forced to turn it over to the authorities?

Since this is my first deep dive video, please let me know what you think of the format in the comments below!

⚡️Telegram Plays Ball and Commits To Moderation
@takebackourtech

Last week on Telegram, chats were ablaze with rumors that direct messaging on the platform lost its encryption, after CEO Pavel Durov posted bail from a French jail and Telegram made a quiet update to their FAQ.

What’s the impact of this? The door is now open to Telegram handing over message data related to specific accounts, groups, or message based on requests from authorities.

Telegram’s latest official post indicates that they’ll be taking moderation and these requests more seriously. And with Pavel on a no-fly list and reporting to police twice a week, these changes may be indefinite.

What do you think? Will you stick around on Telegram?

💰The IRS Might Know About Your Crypto

If you use Coinbase or any custodial wallet, the IRS might already have your info. In 2017, they forced Coinbase to hand over 14,000 users’ records—and now those people are getting tax letters. 😬

Crypto ≠ anonymous when someone else holds your personal info.

⚠️ Move to a non-custodial wallet (like StackWallet) before it’s too late.
