At the start of the podcast, he explained his journey in Yale and the Privacy lab. In Privacy Lab they deal with hands-on tech implementation where they show people how to be more secure, private and potentially anonymous about their privacy and data. There are digital self-defense workshops that were called crypto parties. These involved hands-on practices which is different from teaching basics and principles of a particular subject. The expert talked about teaching the students which included professionals, paralegals, law graduates, and undergrad students who are seeking to learn about cyber tech. With that, they performed cyber security activities and students came up with their own concepts of hacking. For example, They performed the activity of hacking other students' microphones in the same room, which was fun and engaging to learn. Discussion on social networking and privacy implications that the big giants like Facebook and Twitter are causing people to feel not so secure. Sean talked about the Panquake, a decentralized platform that works on blockchain, and how it's the game-changer for social networking with short messaging technology wherein people's privacy is protected. He described there are three components of determining the social networking with privacy i.e., the question of critical mass, the question of hunger and willingness to pay for privacy by users, and history of alternative/replacement of social networks. Panquake blockchain model will be based on Byzantine fault tolerance.
