Speaker 1 (00:00):
Don't get scam folks, whatever you do.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
I got the text message yesterday just moments after Trin
Knnebby Affordableized Store said hey, look out for this text message.
This is this is making the rounds and then you
wouldn't you know it just I don't know, maybe an
hour or so later I got I got the same message.
And whatever you do, don't respond to this stuff. We
(00:22):
want to make sure that you're informed, not afraid, but informed,
so that you know what to be aware of out there.
And there's a couple of those big things today. First
Trick Kennibby Affordableized Store, Lake Michigan Drive and standal and
he joins us now to do another segment. It's tech Talk, folks,
bringing you up to speed with all those stories that
(00:43):
you need to know about happening in the world of tech,
AI and more. Hang on, it is in tech and
how it affects you and your world. This is tech
Talk Tuesday on Wood Radios West Michigan Live. You know,
we just played this little clip from the White House
to put this out. It was the Democrats and media
(01:04):
mocking the la riots and what just took place and
saying they were peaceful protests and whatnot. It's really it's
kind of a wild video to watch.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Trying.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
I want to play a little bit if if I
cannot the whole thing, but just a bit here. The
reality is, we see peaceful protests launching in Los Angeles.
Finger hands off.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
These people are just trying to get live their lives.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Man trying to live their lives. The vast majority of
protesters and demonstrators are peaceful. Turn of what is just
a bunch of people having fun watching cars buggy.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
They're saying that they have it under control. Things are
under control.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
Peaceful test are taking place here.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
I will tell you right now watching that, I think
it's hard for a lot of folks to see, you know,
that sort of damage, that sort of chaos. I want
to just take a moment if I can, trent because
there's a tech element of this. We saw this used
in January sixth, and I would not be surprised if
(02:23):
we start to see these things being used, particularly in
these investigations. The last administration wanted to use this type
of thing on its enemies, right, but this administration might
in fact use it on the criminals. And I think
it's some of this is going to be concerning, I
(02:47):
think for a lot of folks to understand the sort
of the tech that's available, not just the cell phone usage,
but there's a database that's.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
Been put together.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
I think we're going to talk about this database a
little bit more in depth in the days to come,
but first let's just talk about some of the things,
the tools that they have in their tool belt to
be able to identify these people even when they're masked.
Some of the facial recognition that stuff. The genie's out
of the bottle and it's really hard to stop it
at this point.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
Yeah, good morning, justin it's the technology. We have more cameras,
we have more phones, we have more data location data
based on apps than we have ever had in history.
And it's a messy situation. It's dicey. It's controversial because
if you're a bystander, that's not part of any of
that situation. But that's taking pictures and you have pictures
(03:42):
of somebody throwing something at a police car and it
starts on fire and the police car burns down. Can
your records that you have on your phone be subpoena
as evidence into the court, And traditionally that would be yes, absolutely.
The question though, is traditionally you would have to be
summoned to court as the personal witness. So are those
(04:02):
records going to be subpoened into court privately, behind the scenes,
without public review. Those are the kind of things that
are going to have to get fleshed out into the courts.
We've seen on through January sixth, anything is possible using
any data in any way. It feels like whatever you
imagine would be possible. I don't know if it's going
(04:26):
to be the same here or if the courts are
going to say, oh, you can't use that evidence. It's
going to be very messy. It's very controversial, but yes,
to answer your question, justin there is technology everywhere that
has cameras, facial recognition databases, data location data of who's where,
who's doing what, right down to the specific time and
(04:48):
even the specific actions. So even you throwing something out
a police car, your phone has motion sensors, activity sensors,
especially if you're wearing a wearable like a watch. Those
have very accurate information that that data could be used
to prove the exact time, of the exact motions, the
exact strength of you throwing something that's incredible. That's that
(05:11):
we're living in a time where we have never had
that kind of data about every one of us just
sitting there on our devices. You know.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
It is interesting.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
It is everywhere, and I think, again, this stuff can
be used for very good things, but it can also
be used in ways that are don't Maybe concerning the folks,
here's an interesting story the LAPD surveiled Gaza protests using
a social media tool. There's another piece that's out there
constantly giving data to people and that information. The point
(05:45):
is they have it, I want to see. I think
the next piece of this is some of the dots
being connected between the organizations, the non governmental organizations, the
non for profits, receiving money yesterday we had some of
this information in the after show, but receiving money from
those taxpayers in California and federal taxpayers as well. They're
(06:09):
getting this money and then they're fueling these type of
protests and things like that. Let's go back, that's connect
those dots as well using tech and stamp this out.
But the question, and I think it's one that's worth asking,
particularly in the future, as will this technology be used
for good or will it be used for evil? To
(06:29):
stamp out sort of any sort of dissent, and it's
a question worth asking. In this administration, it certainly seems
like it will be used in a right way.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
But only time will tell.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Speaking of technology, and you probably got one of these
yesterday too, here's a way the technology can be used
in a very harmful way, potentially to a lot of
folks who could get hacked. You could get caught up
in some sort of scam where they're trying to extort
all kinds of money from you. Trent sent me a message,
he goes, did you see this? I just got this,
(07:05):
and then what an hour later? I got that same
sort of scammy text message that came in telling me
essentially that I owed money to the DMV. Trent to
walk us through this what happened? Because this made the
news too locally.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
Yeah, justin This is a text message that's fairly spell checked,
actually laid out fairly professionally, with a little bit better
effort put into this, and it's basically saying, Hey, you
have a ticket to pay at the DMV. You have
a ticket to pay that's outstanding, and if you don't
pay it, this is what's going to happen. They list
out five to six things that's going to happen, and
(07:40):
the first couple are pretty believable, would be pretty run
of the mill things if you didn't pay a ticket.
But when you get towards the end of the list
that your credit score is going to get impacted. Obviously,
that's a big thing that No, the DMV doesn't affect
your credit score. But the scam here is they have
a link and you go to that link and they
(08:01):
have a professionally set up web page that looks like
it's real, it's official, and they want you to pay
your ticket with the bank info credit card info and
obviously they take a charge from your bank, your credit card,
your debit card, and they got your money, and that's
the scam, and they might also resell that credit card info.
This is a bit unique because in today's world, we
(08:23):
have traffic cameras, we have different types of enforcement in
all different states. People travel a lot, and so it's
fairly believable. And there's people that are just going online
and say, yeah, it looks good, it looks professional, took
my card, paid my ticket, and I'm going to move
along in life. When that's just the beginning. That's your
ticket to the scammera. So if you see a message
like this, delete it. If somebody in your family has
(08:45):
gotten this message, please tell them to delete it and
just move along. The DMV is not going to send
you a text message. When the police pulls you over
and gives you a ticket, or if you get caught
by a traffic camera, they're not going to send you
a text message. I have not seen that in any state,
in any place, I have not heard of that, and
(09:06):
I hope they never do that. So that we can
assume that any text messages we get are simply scam
if they're coming from a toll or a ticket of
that nature.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Well I think that's a good rule of thumb.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
No matter what, you're getting a tech with it to
your bank, your credit card, law en, for whoever you
think it might be, don't answer. Whether it's a call
or a text or an email or any any sort
of communication, don't answer. I even get them sometimes on Facebook.
I get messages your account is going to be banned
unless you jump through these soups, and I just know
instantaneous that's not real. So keep that in mind. Always
(09:42):
contact the original who whoever they say it's coming from,
contact them separately through the official way of content.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
You need to go into a bank. Go into a bank.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
But please don't get caught up in this, because these
people are some of the lowest of the low scum
of the earth, and particularly praying on some of the
most vulnerable. Hey, here's a story that may give you
a chuckle. You remember Area fifty one. We're now being
told that Area fifty one and the UFO conspiracy theories
(10:14):
that go right along with it were cooked up by
the Pentagon secretly planted there.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
They say this story for the New York Post.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
Too well, I guess, I guess throw us off the
trail of the track of what they were actually doing there,
which was experimental aircraft similar. So no Little Green men
apparently trent their Area fifty one.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
Is that what we'res Yeah, Jessin, there's a great book
that I would recommend read. Annie Jacobson writes a lot
of great books, and she writes a really good one
about Area fifty one, very factually, very non conspiracy theoratorial
type of book. But yes, Jack Woolan is the name
of a test pilot that was widely documented back in
(10:55):
the day when he first started flying jets, they didn't
have propellers. Obviously, people were not used to seeing that
in public. Other pilots, even people weren't. So he would
put on a gorilla mask, a monkey mask, and he
would fly that jet with no propellers next to commercial
airplaft and just kind of pull right up to him
and just kind of glance at him and acknowledge them
(11:18):
and move on. And it truly freaked people out. And
he was just having fun. So some of this is
pure fun, and some of it was intentional, obviously to
throw off our adversaries with a bunch of misinformation to
kind of cover up and hide kind of what we're
really doing. So this has been going on forever. I
think the government's pretty good at fake and stuff.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Well, you know, so you say, I mean, if we're
going to believe any of any of what you've said
here today or what they're trying to tell us, I
don't know, man, the jury is still out. We'll have
to just wait and see. The little Green men just
experimental airplanes. You don't want to go visit Area fifty one.
I could tell you that much. There's lots of documentation
(12:00):
that throughout the years of people falling around and finding
out there.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
Trick can there be Affordable Eyes Store, Lake Michigan.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Drive and stand out always a great time having you
on a Grand River Tech whether you need help with
your actual personal advice. And I think maybe next week
we'll go through all of the things that are coming out.
But Apple's having their big event right now and making
a lot of splashing and we didn't barely get a
chance to even talk about that. We did a little
bit off the air, But next week we'll go through
(12:26):
some of that. You got some help you need with
your personal device, Trent's happy to help you there at
Affordable Eye Store or if Grand River Tech maybe you've
got a school or an organization, a church or something
you need help there Grand River Tech dot com tran
always a pleasure, my friend.
