Benn Jordan Advocates for Privacy in Technology Amid Surveillance Concerns
Benn Jordan, known for his music as Flashbulb and his YouTube channel 'Benn and Gear', has shifted his focus towards cybersecurity and privacy issues. Over the past five years, Jordan has transitioned from reviewing music gear to investigating science and technology, particularly the implications of government and corporate surveillance. His YouTube channel, now a nonprofit, explores these themes, highlighting the pervasive nature of surveillance in modern technology. Jordan's work underscores a growing concern about privacy, as he critiques devices like the Amazon Echo Show for their intrusive data collection practices. His advocacy for privacy is reflected in his preference for technology that respects user data, such as the original Pebble Watch, which he praises for its simplicity and lack of data harvesting.
