    Ad Blocking, Search Independence, and the Hidden Web | JP Schmetz (Ghostery / Brave Search)

    Most ad blockers start by blocking everything—then you become tech support for friends & family when pages break. Henry interviewed JP Schmetz, founder of Brave Search and CEO of Ghostery, about making trackers visible, why there are only 3 search indexes in the world, reinventing the open web with AI, and how to avoid becoming "the family CTO." ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 0:00:00 INTRO 00:01:32 ORIGINS WITH GHOSTERY 00:03:15 SEARCH ENGINES + BROWSERS 00:06:32 GHOSTERY'S BROWSER EXTENSION 00:09:09 THE PRIVACY DISCONNECT 00:13:02 REAL WORLD IMPACTS 00:16:03 PRIVACY VARIES BY LOCATION 00:16:47 PAGE BLOCKING + BREAKING 00:24:06 ADAPTATION + TRUST 00:28:48 ROLES AT GHOSTERY + BRAVE 00:29:22 OPEN SOURCE 00:30:38 BRAVE SHIELDS OR GHOSTERY? 00:32:36 SUGGESTED CONFIGURATIONS 00:40:13 WHOTRACKS.ME 00:44:30 WHAT IS A TRACKER? 00:47:39 WHAT ARE THE INCENTIVES? 00:50:31 DOES BLOCKING = NO DATA SHARING? 00:53:50 THE INVESTIGATIVE PROCESS 00:57:27 PRIVATE SEARCH 01:00:11 META SEARCH VS.

    Why This Password Manager Requires a Private Key (Passbolt Interview)

    Most password managers use your master password as the encryption key—which means it can be phished and brute-forced. Passbolt uses a random private key instead. Henry interviewed co-founder Remy Bertot about why they optimized Passbolt for teams, how granular permissions prevent credential leaks, and why self-hosting matters for businesses. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 INTRO 01:20 PASSBOLT TARGET DEMOGRAPHIC 05:52 PASSWORD MANAGER BASICS 06:51 PASSBOLT TYPICAL CUSTOMER 07:41 PASSWORD MANAGER OPTIONS 10:33 ATTACKS ON BUSINESSES 13:17 PASSBOLT BUSINESS MODEL 16:24 SELF-HOSTING 19:22 PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY 22:09 SUITE VS.

    Why Everyone Should Use an Ad Blocker (AdGuard Interview)

    Ad blockers have broad permissions to intercept all your web traffic—which means you need to know which ones to trust. Henry interviewed the CTO and co-founded of AdGuard about why they pivoted from data collection to privacy protection, how DNS filtering differs from local ad blocking, and Apple's revolutionary new API that lets ad blockers work system-wide on iOS without ever seeing your traffic. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 0:00:00 INTRO 00:06:04 PRE-SNOWDEN VS.

    The Chat App that Can't Go Down (Holepunch + Keet Interview)

    Peer-to-peer networks have no servers—just devices talking directly to each other. Henry interviewed Mathias Buus Madsen, CEO of Holepunch, about how BitTorrent handled 40 million users without servers, why their messenger Keet can't go down even when usage spikes, their new P2P password manager, and how P2P apps are more energy efficient than data centers. 🔗 LINKS Holepunch: https://holepunch.to/Keet Messenger: https://keet.ioPears: https://pears.comPear Pass: https://pass.pears.com ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 0:00:00 INTRO 00:01:25 WHAT IS PEER-TO-PEER (P2P)? 00:03:16 BENEFITS OF P2P 00:05:38 GETTING STARTED IN P2P 00:08:43 NEGATIVE P2P ASSOCIATIONS 00:14:13 P2P CENSORSHIP RESISTANCE 00:17:14 P2P SAFETY 00:21:29 KEET (P2P MESSENGER) 00:26:21 OPEN SOURCE? 00:27:12 BEING SERVERLESS 00:31:04 OPEN SOURCE VS.

    The Messaging App With No User IDs (SimpleX Interview)

    SimpleX Chat is the only messaging network where users have no identifiers—no phone numbers, no usernames, no user IDs at all. Henry interviewed founder Evgeny Poberezkin about how unidirectional message pipes create a network where servers don't even know users exist, why this isn't federation, how it compares to Signal and Session, and why the company is based in the UK despite encryption battles. 🔗 LINKS SimpleX: https://simplex.chatEvgeny's Website: https://www.poberezkin.com/about.html ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 0:00:00 INTRO 00:01:31 SIMPLEX NAME 00:04:20 SIMPLEX TEAM 00:05:10 SIMPLEX VS.

    It's Time for the VPN Industry to Innovate (Obscura Interview)

    You don't have to trust Obscura—you just have to trust that not both Obscura and Mullvad are compromised. Henry sat down with Carl, former Bitcoin Core developer and founder of Obscura VPN, to discuss how it's the first VPN that mathematically can't log your activity, what makes it censorship-resistant against networks like the Great Firewall, and what it really means to build privacy that's more than "a pinky promise." 🔗 LINKS Obscura: https://obscura.netGitHub: https://github.com/Sovereign-Engineering/obscuravpn-clientTrust, 2-Party Relays, and QUIC: https://obscura.net/blog/bootstrapping-trust/Mullvad: https://mullvad.net ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 0:00:00 INTRO 00:01:50 CARL'S BACKGROUND 00:10:47 APPLE'S PRIVATE RELAY 00:17:11 TRUSTLESS MODELS 00:19:05 MULTI-PARTY RELAY PARTNERSHIP 00:21:39 TRADITIONAL MULTI-HOP 00:23:39 CENSORSHIP RESISTANCE 00:27:33 MULLVAD VS.
