There's certainly a pushpull going on right now. There's those of us who are feeling

the increased warmth and sense of freedom and, and yes, momentum to getting back our

lives. And then there are bureaucrats and naysayers and people who have gotten either addicted

to this new lifestyle in some way of remote work from home or addicted to the control that

they've had over so much of the population. This is going to continue to play out. This

is a major challenge that we have in our society. And I want us to be very clear about what

we're facing. We're going to get into that today. I also want you to be clear about the

challenge of privacy online and making sure that you aren't being tracked constantly.

Everything you do, every click. You know that you can't trust Big Tech anymore. That's

for sure. Remember when Google used to say don't be evil, we've seen what they actually

intend to do with your data, with shutting you down, with interfering in a presidential

election. I mean, the stuff that Big Tech has been up to really has broken whatever faith

we had in them in the past. And that's why I don't want you getting tracked all the time.

You need to think of a, of a VPN, a virtual private network as a necessary tool in your

cyber defense. Okay, you have to have it. It's not a sort of kind of maybe thing. Otherwise,

everything you do is being tracked. And who knows what they're going to do with that

data. When I switch on express VPN on my computer or phone, my address is masked by a VPN

server. That's right. My IP address isn't something that they can just track the same way.

This is so straightforward. You can do it on up to five devices simultaneously. Multiple

users on your network can stay safe with a single subscription. You need to have this.
