Big data knows all about you! – John Stossel

From StosselTV

The government is tracking you.

Here’s HOW they do it and WHY you should care.

@NaomiBrockwellTV has a popular YouTube channel where she points out that the government constantly spies on us, using data that apps collect via our phones.

But these apps “make my life easier,” I push back, “Convenience matters!”

“But privacy is important,” explains Brockwell. “The government is purchasing all this data about us. They’re creating records about all of us, and that’s a really scary thing.” “That data is forever … You have no control over what societal norms might change in the next 10 years and that data suddenly becomes incriminating. You’re basically making a bet that you and the people with the guns will always stay on good terms.”

In my video above, she explains why that’s not a good bet to make.

Publicity Kills DEI: A Free Speech Solution to Woke Companies

Published on

For years, major corporations bragged about their wonderful Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs. They’re good for business and morally correct, they said. So why are they now cutting those programs?

Robby Starbuck says these programs once got a lot of buy-in, because people wanted to be nice! But DEI came to mean much more than just being nice.

Starbuck says what it looked like in practice was “crazy trainings” and “overtly racist hiring practices.” Now lots of people agree with him.

Companies actually take notice when Starbuck tells his many followers about their DEI programs. Often the programs get dropped.

That’s the power of free speech.

After 40+ years of reporting, I now understand the importance of limited government and personal freedom.

What Socialist Influencers Get Wrong (Just About Everything)

Published on

From StosselTV

Socialism is popular!

Youtube and TikTok stars say socialism “maximizes freedom… increases life-expectancy,” and “improves home-ownership.” It’s so absurd!

I asked my producer, Kristin Tokarev, to investigate their claims. Her video debunks their propaganda.

Influencers now rack up millions of views claiming socialism works better than capitalism. Here’s some of what they get terribly wrong!

After 40+ years of reporting, I now understand the importance of limited government and personal freedom.
