Protecting Your Digital Life in the AI Era

You think your two-factor authentication and credit monitoring make you safe online. Bad news - you're probably already compromised, you just don't know it yet.

While you're worrying about AI becoming Skynet, real humans are using AI tools to drain your bank account $10 at a time.


Anthropic just reported the first fully AI-orchestrated cyberattack (and patted themselves on the back for stopping it). Major security companies like F5 and Experian have been hacked. Even LifeLock—yes, the identity theft protection company—got breached. The EU is the only entity actually trying to protect you with GDPR, while your own government leaks your data like a sieve.

This episode won't make you invincible, but it will make you paranoid in the right ways. We're breaking down the real threats, the tools actually being used against you, and why that "suspicious" Amazon charge from three states away probably isn't a GPS glitch.

Get identity theft insurance (because you WILL get hacked), enable every alert on every account, audit your statements forensically, and accept that privacy is dead but protection isn't. Plus: why cryptocurrency is a hacker's wet dream and what to do when the FBI tells you your $3,000 isn't worth their time.

Topics covered:

  • Why Anthropic's "we stopped the hack" announcement is actually terrifying PR spin
  • The $10 Amazon gift card scam that bled $4,000 over 18 months (and why fraud detection missed it)
  • How hackers used in-flight WiFi to clone a credit card mid-flight
  • Why moving to the cloud made your data LESS secure, not more
  • The sophisticated Zelle rental scam that costs thousands (and why cops won't help)
  • What GDPR actually does right (and why the US government doesn't care about your privacy)
  • Why "free" services mean YOU are the product being sold
  • The insurance policies worth paying for (because denial won't protect you)
  • How to spot RFID skimming in your own neighborhood
  • Why your partner needs access to your financial alerts (yes, really)
