In order to use a platform like Youtube, or create a Gmail account, you are forced to use 2 Factor Authentication. This means the normal answer is to give them your phone number. If you do this then your privacy is zucked. Another problem now with Youtube is that if you use a VPN to protect your privacy, then YT will block your access if you are not logged in. So some of you think this can be easily solved by using a VOIP solution. But it cannot be solved like that. It needs its own unique approach and I've successfully dealt with this. I'll teach you what to do to limit what Google can see.

This video is a primer on the use of Voice Over IP (VOIP) in a personal setting to achieve privacy goals. Normally VOIP is a well known tool for use as a landline and also extensively for business use. But there is little understanding of how this can be used for privacy or on a mobile phone. This video will also introduce the Brax Virtual Phone Service which is a specific privacy implementation of VOIP. ---------------------------------- BraX3 Privacy Phone is on https://braxtech.net ----------------------------------- Brax Virtual Phone, De-Googled Phones, BytzVPN, BraxMail, BraxRouters are available on https://brax.me ----------------------------------- Merch Store https://my-store-c37a50.creator-spring.com/ ----------------------------------- I'm the Internet Privacy Guy.

Last October 14, 2025, Windows 10 officially reached end-of-support—no more security patches, no more updates, and no more safety net from Microsoft. For millions still running it, that date marks the moment their PC becomes a ticking target for hackers. But it doesn’t have to end in a graveyard.

Sometimes we do not have a choice but to use Windows 11. I will tame Windows 11 so all the privacy invading features are turned off. And the only way to do that is to use a Local Account and this has to be a long term solution. But this is a complex process since you must follow certain steps or Microsoft will have a hardware record of your device. And if you have Windows 11 Home, Microsoft does its best to lock you out of local account options. And many solutions offered out there like OOBE Bypass no longer work. Rufus method works but is not guaranteed for the long term. Here, we offer a safe long term solution. ---------------------------------- BraX3 Privacy Phone is on https://braxtech.net ----------------------------------- Brax Virtual Phone, De-Googled Phones, BytzVPN, BraxMail, BraxRouters are available on https://brax.me ----------------------------------- Merch Store https://my-store-c37a50.creator-spring.com/ ----------------------------------- I'm the Internet Privacy Guy.

I've seen many of you use such complex passwords that are very hard to type and extraordinarily difficult to remember. And this is because many of you have been trained to think that complex passwords are what keeps you safe from hackers. But the truth is surprising because hacks don't actually come from attempts to break complex passwords. And in fact, chances are your complex password will compromise you anyway. ---------------------------------- BraX3 Privacy Phone is on https://braxtech.net ----------------------------------- Brax Virtual Phone, De-Googled Phones, BytzVPN, BraxMail, BraxRouters are available on https://brax.me ----------------------------------- Merch Store https://my-store-c37a50.creator-spring.com/ ----------------------------------- I'm the Internet Privacy Guy.
