As my listeners know, privacy and security are issues that affect everyone in the age of Big Tech, particularly but not limited to expats.


It was great to hear Josh’s perspective on these issues, and as far as I’m concerned, he is one of the best voices for the general public to follow to keep up to date on privacy concerns. 


There was so much great information here, I had to take notes myself! I know you’re going to derive great value from this conversation, so enjoy!




Speak soon,
