Matrix Mind

Some call the technology and information systems in our lives akin to us being "stuck in the matrix." We, freely or unknowingly, give up our personal information to thousands of companies, governments, and other organizations each and every day, week, month, and year. The goal of this blog is to explore ways to get better privacy and security in our daily lives. Many when asked about privacy will say, "I don't really care that much about it, because I have nothing to hide." They'll then take another sip of their coffee and continue scrolling on Instagram. But the thing is, privacy and security used to be the norm! Most of what we did each day was not collected, recorded, cataloged, analyzed and then used to manipulate our opinions and influence us to buy things we can't afford with money we don't have to impress people we don't even like. So how do we get more privacy and security? Do we have to give up all of these great innovations and technological advancements, go to the woods without any power and completely disconnect? Questions like this and more will be addressed all in this blog. I hope you will consider subscribing and even submitting some of your own questions to learn how you can live your life, your way, without the prying eyes of anyone else. With love, Jessica Snowden Founder and Chief Writer Matrix Mind
