With Oran, India & Us Eye Breaking Chinese Stranglehold on Telecom Gear

As Prime Minister Narendra Modi works out business deals during his visit to the US, a good part of the discussions will be in the area of telecom and trusted sources and on exchange of technologies between the two countries, especially when it comes to development of Open Radio Access Networks or ORAN solutions that aim to break the stronghold of Chinese and some European companies on 4G, 5G and 6G technology, which is under developments.

India is increasingly looking at telecom technologies by opting for a disintegrated approach under the ORAN model, where different players pool in to build complex, integrated networks.

What is ORAN?

ORAN is meant to allow hardware and software used in cellular networks to inter-operate, irrespective of the vendor. RAN has traditionally been a proprietary or closed segment of the network...

India-US on ORAN, and iCET discussions between the NSAs

There have already been discussions around ORAN during high-level meetings between India and the US, such as those during the recent conversations between National Security Advisor Ajit Doval and his American counterpart Jake Sullivan. It has also been a part of the discussions at the level of Quad, where the effort is to break the Chinese monopoly, especially when national security and cyber threats are proving to be real dangers for countries across the world.

Several American telecom and IT companies, such as Cisco, are looking to partner Indian companies in the development and rollout of 4G, and 5G solutions while working on 6G development. This also figures on the list of priorities being attempted through the Critical and Emerging Technologies (iCET) between India and the US, launched in January. The iCET's focus is on driving enhanced cooperation between private industries as well as research and scientific institutions in the US and India in next-gen technologies such as AI, telecom, ORAN, space, quantum computing and semiconductors.

⚡️LIVESTREAM THURS: Shielding Our Lives from Electromagnetic Radiation with Bill Cadwallader
@takebackourtech

Every cell in our body relies on finely tuned electromagnetic fields that are responsible for signaling everything from energy production to our heartbeat.

Can the multitude of EMR sources in our environment be interfering with this natural system? Can we identify our own levels of pollution? Is there a way to use technology while mitigating exposure?

We will begin to answer these questions and more this Thursday at 12 PM Central Time on a new #TBOT interview: Shielding Our Lives from Electromagnetic Radiation

We will be learning about EMR & related solutions with Bill Cadwallader, an internationally recognized Electromagnetic Radiation Expert from the Building Biology Institute and founder of Stop Dirty Electricity and Safe Living Technologies.

Bill, a Certified Electromagnetic Radiation Specialist, has enlightened audiences at the International EMF Health Summit with his deep expertise. He has also authored the seminal work "Exposed – The Electronic Sickening of America and How to Protect Yourself – Includes Dangers of 5G & Smart Devices" and co-authored "Quick & Easy EMF Guide – 99 Tips to Lower Exposure to Harmful Electromagnetic Radiation."

Our conversation will cover:

- What EMR/EMF is and its defining features
- The different types, how it works, and its effects on living things
- Strategies to identify and remediate high EMF polluted environments
- Best practices for using your technology safely

Derrick Broze, an investigative journalist and candidate for Mayor of Houston, focuses on exposing governmental and corporate corruption while also promoting solutions for privacy, decentralization, and self-sufficiency. Broze discusses his work on digital surveillance, facial recognition, and other invasive technologies employed by law enforcement, as well as his support for cryptocurrencies as an alternative to traditional banking systems. He emphasizes the importance of distinguishing between government-controlled digital currencies and private cryptocurrencies that prioritize individual liberty and privacy.

⚡️What Data Do Cars Collect and How To Opt Out?
@takebackourtech

In this recent piece on Wired, popular cars were ran through a 'Vehicle Privacy Report' which analyzes the terms of service and privacy policy for specific vehicles to give you an idea of the data that is collected.

You can submit a VIN number to get your own report here (please read their privacy policy as well!):
https://vehicleprivacyreport.com/

The company behind the tool:
https://privacy4cars.com/

Important points:
- Manufacturer collects data like (identifiers, biometrics, location, synced phone data, users)
- Manufacturers sell data (affiliates, service providers, insurancce firms, government, and data brokers)
- Manufacturers will provide data to government or law enforcement when there's a legal request

I've used the data privacy documents from each manufacturer to make a short summary - please note that this collection may only occur in specific cases (using different features) and may not apply to every car model.

Analysis of modern cars (2022):
- Generally Collected:
Name, Address, DL #, Phone #, Email
- Toyota - vehicle location, odometer readings, voice records (using voice commands or calling the response center), diagnostics, some models use facial recognition, unknown data collection from phone. Data transmission can be turned off on the privacy hub
- Honda - collects SSN, DL#, location, fuel levels, tire pressure, battery charge, trip log, airbag, search content ,call history, voice commands, driver behavior. Some data collection can be opted out of through Honda's apps
- Ford - owner information, vehicle data,, tire pressure, charging information, drive data, seat-belt, precise location / direction, speed, media analytics + voice recognition
- Chevorlet - Owner identifiers, battery igition, window data, location, route history, speed, camera images and sensor data, security alerts, Wi-Fi data usage, home energy usage (charging / discharging at home)
- Jeep & Ram - owner information, SSN, DL #, dates and times of use, speed, trip details, routes, cruiser control, refueling activity, battery levels, images fro mcameras, face and fingerprint (if enrolled)

I always knew cars were data traps but now have a better understanding of all of the different things these companies can collect and use against you if requested by law enforcement.

This was just a quick summary, and more deep dives are needed, we did not cover what data is collected from your phone (ever wonder what happens when you sync contacts?).

Why would anyone buy a new car today?

What do y'all think? Should I make a video on this issue with more research?

ooni@mastodon.social - Starting June 22nd, OONI data from China shows the blocking of F-Droid by means of DNS injection, where an unrelated IP address (e.g., DropBox) is returned to the client.

This technique is commonly used in China to restrict access to services.
OONI data showing the block of F-Droid on at least 4 networks can be found here
