Every time we upgrade our devices, we face a choice: migrate everything from the old one or start fresh. While transferring data may seem convenient, it also means hauling along unnecessary ‘digital exhaust’—outdated apps, clutter, and potential privacy risks. In this video, I’ll show you why starting from scratch is smarter for both your security and sanity and share some essential tips for setting up a new device. My goal is to help you enjoy a less cluttered, more private, and more intentional digital life.

10:02 My Thoughts on Restoring From Backup

When people ask me questions like, how to restore from a backup, my answer is usually: don’t. Yes, there are costs to starting fresh; but there are also costs from restoring from a backup. By investing a bit of extra effort up front, you’ll enjoy a cleaner, more private, and ultimately more efficient digital environment—one you truly control.

Your phone is a tracking device. But it doesn’t have to be.
One of the best ways to reclaim your privacy is to ditch iOS and stock Android and install GrapheneOS instead.

This guide is a step-by-step tutorial on converting a Pixel phone to GrapheneOS, tweaking key settings for maximum privacy, and installing apps—including how to handle Google Play Services after setup. If you want to eliminate as much of Google as possible from your device but still need certain apps that require Google Play Services, we’ll show you how to use it in a more privacy-preserving way.

I’ll walk you through how I set up my GrapheneOS device so you can see what’s possible. But this is just one way to do it—if you have your own setup, share your tips in the comments!

23:46 Your Phone, Your Rules

As difficult as it may seem, it’s actually not that difficult to enjoy all the benefits of a smartphone without compromising your privacy. Remember, privacy isn’t about going off grid; it’s about making informed choices; and with GrapheneOS, you’re taking control of your device, your data, and your digital freedom.

The UK Govt Just Killed Your iCloud Privacy – Here's What to Do

UK government iCloud privacy Apple Advanced Data Protection digital privacy data protection privacy-focused alternatives

https://youtu.be/AuqOzn9GWTU
https://odysee.com/@NaomiBrockwell:4/UK-Vs-Apple:a

In an unprecedented attack on global privacy, the UK government secretly ordered Apple to create a backdoor into its Advanced Data Protection (ADP)—the encryption tool designed to protect your most sensitive iCloud data. Instead of quietly complying, Apple publicly disabled ADP entirely for UK users. By doing this, Apple alerted the world to the secret order—but it also left UK users vulnerable. Their backups, photos, notes, and more are now accessible to the government.

In this video, you'll learn exactly what Apple data is no longer private, and discover privacy-focused alternatives for your files, photos, emails, notes, and more. The UK government is fishing for your personal information—now’s the time to ramp up your protections and take control of your digital life.

08:38 Important Note About ADP
09:55 The Privacy Battle Ahead

Apple’s removal of Advanced Data Protection in response to the UK's demands is unprecedented among major democracies. If privacy matters to you, it’s time to move your sensitive data away from iCloud—and potentially other major providers targeted by similar government demands—to privacy-first alternatives. Protect your information before it's too late.

Signal usernames privacy phone number contact list

Did you know you can use Signal without sharing your phone number with other users? Signal introduced usernames last year, but many people still don’t realize how they work—some mistake them for their profile name, and figuring out how to share or search for usernames can be confusing. Here’s what you need to know: how usernames work, how to set yours up, how to find others, and the privacy benefits (and limitations) of this new feature.

00:00 Signal’s Game-Changing Privacy Upgrade
00:51 What Are Signal Usernames? (and Why You Should Use One)
01:34 Step-by-Step: Setting Up Your Signal Username
02:14 How to Find People on Signal Without a Phone Number
03:13 The Pros & Cons of Signal’s Username System
05:14 Should You Let Signal Access Your Contacts?
05:44 How Signal Protects Your Contact List (Explained)
06:35 How to Change Your Signal Username Anytime
07:42 Hide Your Phone Number on Signal – Here’s How
08:27 Final Thoughts – Why This Feature Matters

Signal’s username feature is a big step forward for privacy, helping us move away from phone numbers and take control over the information we share. If you haven’t set up your username yet, now’s the perfect time. And the best part? You can change it anytime, as often as you like.
