Popular Presentation Topics
Turn awareness into action.
📱 Your phone doesn't need to listen - it already knows enough to predict you.
Not through your microphone. Through your searches, apps, location, and behavior, it builds a profile of what you’re likely to want next. Learn how this actually works and how to limit it. (Based on the Shield Up! Training Series)
🎯 The systems tracking you for ads are the same ones scammers exploit.
It's not random. The data advertisers use to profile and predict you also makes you an easier target. Learn how it works and how to protect yourself. (Based on the Shield Up! Training Series)
‼️ Meta tracks you far beyond Facebook and Instagram.
The parent company of Facebook, Messenger, Instagram and Threads tracks your activity across apps, websites, and devices to profile and predict you. Learn how it works, and how to reduce what it collects. (Based on the Shield Up! Training Series)
▶️ Your behavior shapes what YouTube shows you.
It's not just what you watch. Every click and pause teaches YouTube what keeps your attention. It shapes what you see next, and what you don't, quietly limiting what you experience and influencing what you believe. Learn how it works,. Take back control of your feed. (Based on the Shield Up! Training Series)
