The Ultimate Communication Tools for Preparedness

[@TimkennedyMMA]

Thank you all for watching and supporting the channel. Communication is such a critical piece of staying prepared, and I hope this video gave you some insight into how I stay ready.

[@Goodie-64]

If you can (I understand your probably very busy) it would be awesome if you could do a video for all of these options. That way you can go far more in depth with each peice of equipment.

[@TimkennedyMMA]

@@Goodie-64 Is there a specific one you'd like more info on? I can see about making a video showcasing the usecase of each one. I'll be taking my Land Cruiser out soon and can try to film a video on them.

[@Hittman8499]

Man. I bought this guys book. Looked up to him for years. But from what ive been hearing everything he says have been contradicted by his teammates, bosses, etc. Wish he would actually address these issues, prove them wrong or apologize. Still want to look up to Tim but its getting grimmer and grimmer by the week.

[@1776maxxed]

He's a big gun control supporter

[@tmoney-kg4yi]

The way I like to think of it. He told detailed stories of firefights, sleep deprived and adrenaline filled, the story could have rough spots in it that aren’t exactly factual but it is what he remembered as he was 30 hours no sleep and getting shot at. Easy to over embellish a story in that scenario. Love you Tim K!

The dude is a massive pos. He got recorded at a police training event telling cops to go against the constitution. The organization he was working with is no longer allowed to train cops because almost every section of their training was teaching cops to violate civil rights.

Motorola T802's and T803's are not mesh. They are FRS radios with the ability to connect to your phone via Bluetooth. Using the app they can text data, send locations (using your phone's GPS) using maps (using your phones data plan). GoTenna is mesh. Beartooth is mesh. Meshtastic is mesh.

Great job guys. While a little complex, and old outdated technology, HAM APRS messaging, and HAM packet while old, slow, they are a base line comms, and un-centrilized, which is why they will survive. With a cheap Tram antenna, and an inexpensive 2m radio they can go a long long way, and with a few hops, can easily cover a very large multi state region if required.

[@NoseNuggets]

i'd love a video on why my, and likely 99% of the people watching your videos need to be concerned with corporations, or even China for that matter, knowing my "pattern of life" or my add ID and its related history. How can this be used against me as a 'normal guy'? Obviously for a Bin Laden type, this is a critical security concern. For billionaires, or other potentially targeted individuals, also a concern. But for all of us? What should i be concerned about?

[@TimkennedyMMA]

Corporations track this info to influence what you buy or how you think. Now imagine that same power in the hands of someone with bad intentions. Think about phishing scams, identity theft, or even social engineering attacks. Knowing how this data is collected and used helps you make better decisions to protect your privacy and, in turn, your security. Veritasium did a great video explaining how it can be used. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rYfcpmqEd5yKbLs If this sounds like something you want to dive deeper into, let me know. I’d love to make a video breaking it all down!

[@NoseNuggets]

@@TimkennedyMMA how? by showing me ads for products or even posts on social media from people that my previous behavior has suggested? Is there any history of TikTok showing ads that are going to steal my creds for some other site (id theft etc)? this seems entirely adverse to the intent of these social media companies. Linus is a targeted individual, and the experience outlined in the Veritasium video has no real world impact to likely anyone watching this video, or that video tbh. If you're of the level to be a targeted individual, MDM and security is already in your day to day wheelhouse.

[@TimkennedyMMA]

@@NoseNuggets Those are solid points, and you're right that the primary goal of most social media platforms and companies is to profit from ads. But the concern isn’t always with the companies themselves, It’s with how bad actors can exploit the data those companies collect. For example, your 'pattern of life' could make phishing or "vishing" attempts or scams more convincing, targeting you with personalized messages that seem legitimate because they mimic your behaviors or interests. I know of a few every day normal people with little to no online presence but they were targeted specifically with vishing scams. As for platforms like TikTok, while they may not directly engage in malicious activity, the access and potential misuse of your data by third parties, whether through breaches or partnerships, is where the real risk lies. It’s also not just about the 'targeted individual.' It’s about how an interconnected system of data could enable larger manipulations or vulnerabilities in society as a whole. I agree that most people won’t face direct consequences, but it’s about awareness and ensuring that this data can’t be weaponized in subtle ways, even against the 'normal guy.'

[@NoseNuggets]

@@TimkennedyMMA Lets say, for the sake of conversation, that every piece of data collected by TikTok was given/acquired by a nefarious actor. Apart from a fishing type attack that would attempt to get me to log into a website i MAY visit based on my history vectors (which honestly isnt a really good attack all said and done), what's the worst case scenario? putting aside the resources required for a targeted effort (as per veritasium), local resources with local capability beyond the civilian norm. that all being said, i can absolutely see how at a high level a platform like TikTok could be, effectively, weaponized. But this is so far outside the targeted or individual security concern realm. This is more on line with CCP pushing content that would drive individuals to a certain specific end. like, protest at a bridge and effectively shut off that bridge, and then attack a target whereby the attacker knows support will come across that bridge and be hindered by the pre-planned protest. far fetched today? perhaps, but certainly more within the practical capabilities of 'a platform' than gather mostly irrelevant "tracking data", save maybe location data. but why in the world anyone would open location data to tiktok or anything of the ilk (US owned, meta, etc included) is beyond me. i get what you're going for, and i don't object outright to people being cognizant of it. i'm just worried that descriptions given by you guys and similar channels are really framing the risk incorrectly for the average viewer. This is important, and people should be thinking about it, but this feels like scaring people, more than informing them. Granted i have a different perspective than most, being in IT for more than 20 years in one capacity or another just makes me question the practical ways these sorts of attacks can be executed, not the fact that "it could happen".

@TimkennedyMMA Just in case you might care? You repeatedly referto/touch the Motorola TalkAbout 803(?) series radio as a "mesh network" device when it is not. The 800 series simply allows the phone app to piggyback data FRS/GMRS channels but does not forward or repeat traffic like actually happens in a mesh network. It may have just been inadvertent, but the video does seem to suggest you think it is an actual mesh device. FWIW regards

[@Dorky_D]

Yes, my ears perked up, and there is no mention of mesh on the motorola product listing. I cannot find any video, or any mesh stuff in relation to this radio.
