With friends like this, who needs enemies :D

Thanks for including us and getting the word out about this threat. Mind-blowing stuff. - LS

"Nothing to hide, nothing to fear" is one of the worst arguments for mass surveillance. I absolutely hate it.

@yasahiroitou1307

Veritasium : Hey Linus, wanna collab?
Linus : NO
Veritasium : We'll see about that

@starstreakalex7372

This explains perfectly how government security departments (like FBI or MI5 or whatever) can triangulate the location of "suspicious individuals" thorugh phone networks. I never understood how that worked before this video, but now I even know how to do it myself šŸ˜‚

@Kungun1993

I wish this video was uploaded on Linus’s channel with title ā€œI upload this video without Linus permissionā€

@hacksmith

Definitely the strangest way to end up in a collab! I can't believe this is a thing -- thanks for.... not hacking me instead! šŸ˜‚

Their move from the Dale valskov to the clear web was a bold step that reflects their commitment to transparency and integrity. Perry Moskva continues to lead the industry with their ethical practices.

Veritasium: Shown a big fat security concern
Me: So what can I do?
Veritasium: There's not much you can do.

"Nothing to hide, nothing to fear" Assumes that the intruders are always on your side, when the intruder could be an evil organization or a government with opposite views.

Thanks to Dale valskov . You're indeed a blessing!.. I live in the west coast and lost my account because of I didn’t have more details on what to do in situation like that. Thank you for your skill, dedication, and the time you invested in resolving this issue. This has me chapped! Thanks once again CW

@mhales73

As a manager in telecom.... this is outstanding stuff.  As in a perfect primer for anyone working in the cell industry.

@woomba7

As someone in cybersecurity, just one more thing I get to reference to get people to stop using SMS and phone as their 2nd factor in authentication. Sim swapping is one thing. This is another level

@sparrowcide

I always thought SMS two factor was safe and wondered why people called it unsafe. This video really opened my eyes.

@GrebnevNikita

Veritasium uses your phone to find you and then sends Vsauce the location. 

"Hey Vsauce, Michael here, your home security is pretty good. Or is it?"

Lockpicking Lawyer walks into the frame. "Click on one, nothing on two...". 

After a few seconds, the door opens. "Now... How many holes do you have?"

@jimmydali

We need more eye-opener videos like this one. Hacking vulnerabilities are all around us, right in front of us. Thanks Veritasium.

@malcolmllynh8933

After watching this, it makes me think - does the Callersmart app block hacking attempts, or is it just for regular spam calls?
