It is no secret that spoken words are silently captured by our cell phones without consent and used to deliver targeted ads. Our locations, contacts, searches and spending habits are meticulously harvested and used for purposes left to the imagination. The news relentlessly alarms us of major security breaches, leading to stolen private data, trade secrets and money. We&#8217;ve embraced all the benefits of new technology, but now we are realizing a Trojan horse entered the room. What recourse does one have? Is there any hope to restore privacy? You are cordially invited to an immersive presentation on the state of surveillance and how to defend against it (see below). <strong>Please\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/clearbc.org\/?nltr=MzI7MTk5OTtodHRwczovL2dhdGguaW8vV19SWG1PaDNueDltalZ1TkhTcFl5Ozs0YjkwZjI3ZjU1MWE4MGJkN2EwZjhmMzUxNTU0MGQ3ZQ%3D%3D\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><u><strong>RSVP for this event<\/strong><\/u><\/a><strong>\u00a0as there is limited capacity.<\/strong> <br><br>Parking instructions: Park anywhere near the Ellis+Gaston intersection, then walk West to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/clearbc.org\/?nltr=MzI7MTk5OTtodHRwczovL3d3dy5nb29nbGUuY2EvbWFwcy9ANDkuODk1OTkzMiwtMTE5LjQ5NjE2OTgsM2EsMTV5LDIyOS4zOGgsODIuMTZ0L2RhdGE9ITNtMTAhMWUxITNtOCExczZwdEh2NnJPR09KMkpRdkluemgyYUEhMmUwITZzaHR0cHM6JTJGJTJGc3RyZWV0dmlld3BpeGVscy1wYS5nb29nbGVhcGlzLmNvbSUyRnYxJTJGdGh1bWJuYWlsJTNGY2JfY2xpZW50JTNEbWFwc19zdi50YWN0aWxlJTI2dyUzRDkwMCUyNmglM0Q2MDAlMjZwaXRjaCUzRDcuODQwMDAwMDAwMDAwMDAzJTI2cGFub2lkJTNENnB0SHY2ck9HT0oySlF2SW56aDJhQSUyNnlhdyUzRDIyOS4zOCE3aTE2Mzg0IThpODE5MiE5bTIhMWIxITJpNDg%2FY29oPTIwNTQxMCZlbnRyeT10dHU7O2JkNTMwNDdhMzhmNTI1YzNhODExOGQwZDZkMmU2OTQy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><u>Cascades Lounge in the Waterscapes property<\/u><\/a>.\u00a0You will see a sign to enter the Cascades Lounge on your left.
