From bird cameras to solar panels, surveillance is now a feature — not a bug. The platforms that claim to protect us have built ecosystems that enable exploitation, not prevent it. I had purchased a…
And it’s not just apps.
From tl;dr sec #279:
Chinese solar inverters shipped with undocumented radios.
In November, some were shut down from China — disabling power infrastructure abroad.
This isn’t just a problem for "Joe or Jane Average."
These apps are on the phones of:
🛡️ Military families
🏛️ Officials
🗣️ Politicians and their spouses
📱 Staffers and aides
Google and Apple love to market lockdown as security.

It was right there in the permissions panel — which almost no one reads.
And even if they did, most wouldn’t know what it means.
This is not “informed consent.” It’s informed consent theater.
My new article, just published in Level Up Coding, explains how widely distributed consumer apps quietly request invasive permissions — and why Apple & Google’s locked ecosystems enable this at scale.
