- This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Bram is a PhD student in computer science at the Expertise Centre for Digital Media at Hasselt University, where he specializes in computer security and privacy. During his PhD, he developed an interest in privacy-sensitive information leaking from smartphones and laptops. At TEDxGhent 2014, he will scare you by showing the information that is available to anyone willing to listen. But don’t worry, he will also explain what you can do to prevent privacy-sensitive information from leaking.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
I'm seriously considering switching to an old 80's phone, buying an old camera, get rid of my computer and start using cash instead of my creditcard. There's no other way to stay safe in todays society! Heck I can't even trust my refridgerator anymore...
@Mikaylah Baird Fridge are now on wifi.
with that little tablet build in it.. for recipe, etc on the web
So they also a spy.
Ive been off all social media for 3 months now and feel amazing. I be cancelling my phone service next month. Minimalism is the way back to life guys.
The one social app you should look into is scuttlebutt its a great concept
Good for u...
How do your work go on though?
I'm on the same path =) No social media since new years eve! Before that, I had a 1,5 years break from fb, insta, snap etc. But I "relapsed" xD This time is different, I've deleted all of them, and for another reason than less screen-time. I've become aware of the INSANE data collection and profiling all these mega-companies are doing on you. It's terrifying! Social media companies now more about you, than you know about yourself. Details about you in your everyday life, that you yourself don't even think about, are stored as part of your identity-profile. It even extends beyond your devices. Facebook, for example, knows what you stuff you buy in your towns local store with your credit card... (let that sink in for a minute)...
@@Aerox90 That last sentence... is that true? Really?! How? Very curious here.
it is very old, but yet still very current.... every week I am having this conversation with colleagues, friends and family...
Smartphones are like very small children that will “speak” to any stranger on the streets.
not so smart afterall...
You brought up some great points, some people don't realize that "Free Wi-FI" can be dangerous. it's scary to think how easy it is for someone to be the "middle man" and see your data and location.
anything FREE like Wi Fi , Vaccines and Flouride ARE THERE TO TRY TO KILL YOU
KNOW MORE NEWS
Free wifi is only dangerous if u log in to them.
@@realaussiemale567 thats what he meant.
obviously free anything is suspect im appalled at the lack of privacy today im seriously considering disposing of my iPhone and i shouldn't have to
I bought a Motorola smart phone. They wouldn't let me use it at all until I agreed to something or other. Then they wouldn't let me use the camera until I gave them all my data, contacts with friends, permission to contact friends, etc. Why is this not extortion?
Celebrating one week today Smart phoen free. Rocking a flip phone with 350 minutes a month ill never use all of. Also deleted FB (was only social media i ever had) and day one was so happy how great and focused i felt. Still riding that out now. I dont even carry the flip everywhere i go like i did the smart phone. I DO keep the flip in car since i live in country and if i break down need to call the auto club. When im out with friends it stays in my car. Same for at family dinners. Back to basics!
Do you still use a basic phone or did you go back to a smartphone?
@@emward6858 basic still
That's perfect! Thanks for the information you shared...
I'm off of WhatsApp from the past 3 years! and I didn't die.. :D lol
So on iPhone I can only see the networks I might have joined previously if I look while I’m there. Then there’s an opportunity to forget each one in turn. There isn’t a list I can check and delete offline or at home? Seems not. So ‘reset network settings’ takes ‘em all out, passwords included, and you be sure to ‘forget’ the insecure ones in future. Don’t accidentally reset the whole thing though. Just network settings
The Truth Is So True
In the internet privacy doesn't exist.
What I hate is I turn off my wi-fi and later go back to check and it has turned itself back on. WTF?
what he is saying cant do it with standard flip fhone its
true what he says flip fhones comeing back
We
Intercept
Fools
Information
*fools'
ive never used free wifi and after watching this i never will its clearly a security/privacy issue
Am I one of these very few people who don't play Pokemon go? And proud of it?
not for long
when people realize that they have to go outside...
Wakajoekoe you dont have to go outside its something called a fake gps and joystick
One year later and nobody plays it - hope in humanity restored.
Marshall Ferguson your not alone I never played it😊
i'm not proud,, but don't play
with salting and hashing it's not that easy to decrpyt the password for middleware. matter of fact even facebook should not be able to decrypt your password if the have setup as proposed
Brilliant 👏🏼
I will say this, " If enough Effort was put into Internet Fraud as IRS Tax Fraud Perhaps a decrease would be a result. But the issues I feel are allowed to go on, The unthought realization is the fines when caught go to the Government.
so two years later I would hope apple and Google have made this less of a problem
Matthew Trevor Hutchings lol sure cause they care so much about our privacy.
They ARE the problem.
that is some scary shit
thank you
VPN Always. Use a VPN on everything.
There are some general guidelines you need to take into consideration before picking a VPN.
1. Never choose a free VPN
2. Never choose a VPN from the 13 eyes
3. Make sure you can trust the VPN provider because I have been instances where companies turn over data. However, I've seen nordPVN do a a good job when it comes to reliability and Trust
Everything you said is correct. Thank you for telling people and have an amazing day. One love!
I rly like his accent! The topic is very concerning though
French
Flemish I think
Easy to solve? I don't think so.
It's often hard to keep written comments in a less than felt mode.
Maybe it’s better to go back to land lines😁
Well I think I know what to do next. Thanks!
STOP, THINK , & DETEST DUALISM.
how did he get that list of all those wifi networks from those different phones?
Jan Geirnaert - If you have a WiFi adapter (the radio portion of your device that sends and receives data) that can be put into ‘monitor’ mode, you can view any and all of the WiFi signals around you. If someone’s device isn’t connected to a network, their device will continuously send out unencrypted requests to join networks that they have previously been connected to. You can then just ‘scrape’ all of those requests and log them. As far as the ‘Man In The Middle’ (MITM) go, its a bit too long to explain here. Just google it.
yeah id like to know that too
My "smartphone" is not leaking anything , I have not got one !! And , I do not want one !!! I detest all the scrollers glued to those screens !
I love his accent.
French
Flemish
cool!
What more do they want my blood? The mortals have already stolen everything that meant anything from me. Takee home Jesus.
Smartphone = CIA and FBI
Nothing to see or hear here so nothing to leak be smarter than your phone
Looks like everyone okay with that ? Agree with that kind of crime ?
homie said windows phone
Raspbery Pi 3? or did he build an IMSI catcher? Packet sniffing..
Smart phones for a dummy.
So if I watch pornos everyone can see it, damn
Yes one person hit the nail right on the eye let's use raven or pigeons 😳 😀😂✌️

Does that mean google knows I am a total nazi? Cool.
