Four positive VPN stories in one week: Mullvad's new multihop modes, Obscura shipping on Windows, Apple quietly patching the iCloud Private Relay leak, and Firefox's free VPN rolling out to Android. Then it gets darker: Flock built an AI tool that turns license plates into names, addresses, and relatives. Meta settled for billions over harms to kids. Plus X sent cease-and-desists that took Nitter and XCancel offline, and the usual data breaches, threats, and FOSS+ updates.🔎 EasyOptOuts is the easy, affordable, and effective way to automatically remove your data from people search sites: https://easyoptouts.comThanks to the EasyOptOuts team for sponsoring Surveillance Report!🧡 SUPPORT TECHLOREBecome a Techlorian and keep this show growing: ★ Support this podcast ★🔗 SOURCES & LINKSView all sources here: https://techlore.tech/apple-fixed-a-leak-without-telling-anyone-plus-more-vpn-news-and-flocks-creepy-police-ai/⏱️ TIMESTAMPS(00:00) - WELCOME TO SURVEILLANCE REPORT
