Episode 89: The Last 10 Years of Privacy

Listen

Privacy advice has changed quite a bit over the last decade.

In this episode of Privacy Files, Colin from the Anonyome Labs Security and Compliance team returns to the show to discuss how privacy has evolved.

As a foundation for the discussion, we review an article published ten years ago on the Art of Manliness website titled Going Undercover: How to Protect Your Privacy Online.

As usual, we address a wide variety of privacy-related topics. From passwords and 2FA to public WiFi and the dangers of Big Tech, privacy in 2024 looks a lot different than it did in 2014.

We also revisit a recurring theme: why have privacy in the first place?

To wrap up the conversation, look at what the future holds for staying private. How much longer will passwords be a thing? Is there a future without phone numbers? Will texting replace email?

In all, this is one of those episodes that helps us put the privacy topic into perspective.
