That should work. I'd like you to meet Cecilia Munoz who leads our efforts on this if that's ok.

Christopher Ruddy
(born January 28, 1965) is an American journalist who is the CEO and majority owner[1] of Newsmax Media.
…
Ruddy grew up on Long Island in Williston Park, New York, where his father was a police officer in Nassau County.[2] He graduated from Chaminade High School in Mineola, New York before graduating summa cum laude with a degree in history from St. John's University, New York in 1987.[3] He earned a master's degree in public policy from theLondon School of Economicsand also studied at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem as an undergrad.[4] He worked briefly as a bilingual high school social studies teacher in the Bronx, New York.[5] Ruddy holds an Honorary Doctorate of Letters from St. John's University.[6]
…
He is a member of theInternational Council, chaired by Henry Kissinger, at the CSIS, a bipartisan Washington, D.C., think tank focused on national security and foreign affairs.[13] Ruddy also served as a representative on the U.S. delegation headed by Senators Joseph Lieberman and Lindsey Graham to theNATO44th Munich Security Conference.[14]
From 2009 to 2013, Ruddy served on the board of directors of theAmerican Swiss Foundation, a nonprofit organization that fosters relations between the two countries. In 2015 he was elected to the board of directors of the Zweig Fund and the Zweig Total Return Funds, two New York Stock Exchange-traded closed-end funds managed by Virtus.[15]
…
In July 2012, Ruddy was a member of the official delegation that accompanied President Clinton on his five-nation tour of Africa, reviewingClinton Foundation initiativesin the area of health care, HIV/AIDS programs, education, and poverty alleviation.[36]
During the delegation's visit to Maputo, Mozambique, Ruddy blogged for the Clinton Foundation website, "The Clinton Foundation demonstrates that public-private partnerships and strategic engagement of private citizens, community members, and local governments can achieve great results in health care. And as I saw firsthand today in Mozambique, this work is innovative in its scope and in its purpose – which is to ensure governments can own and maintain their own health care systems without further reliance on aid. I applaud the Clinton Foundation for bringing together groups and individuals from all sides of the political spectrum to build a world that's more equal, more sustainable, and that benefits us all."[36]
Donald Trump
Ruddy is a confidant of Donald Trump.[1][37][38][39] While speaking with Politico, he addressed the occurrence of significant tweets from the President on Friday nights and Saturdays. Ruddy said, "He understands the news cycle. … It's an opportunity to get out news on a Saturday, when other news organizations aren't pushing too much new. He realizes that Saturday is a free media day for him." The story described Ruddy as a Mar-a-Lago member andlongtime friend of Trump's.[40]
On June 12, 2017, Ruddy claimed that Trump met with Robert Mueller to offer him the job of FBI Director just days before it was announced that he would be appointed special counsel for the Russian investigation. Ruddy did not provide any proof of this. He also claimed in the same interview that Trump was considering terminating Mueller's position as special prosecutor. However, it was not clear if this was based on Trump's comments or the comments of his lawyer made during the previous week.[41]

GrapheneOS review | 3 weeks with a DeGoogled Phone
>31,921 views | Sep 13, 2021
This video will encompass a summary of my GrapheneOS review after using it for 3 weeks. GrapheneOS is a consumer-grade open-source mobile operating system based on the Android Open Source Project, or AOSP. It's one among the many custom ROMs created on that platform. Unlike previous homemade ROMs, though, this one offers enhanced privacy and security. It improves technologies such as app sandboxing, exploit protection, and the permission model significantly.
Daniel Micay, the co-founder of CopperheadOS, a privacy and security-focused mobile OS, developed this relatively new mobile OS. GrapheneOS used to be known as the Android Hardening Project when it was created in late 2014. Micay and his team decided to rebrand the project in 2019 to better reflect how it has grown and matured.
Although GrapheneOS is based on Android, the two operating systems are not identical. One significant difference is that GrapheneOS is Google-free. That means no Google Play Store, Google Chrome, Google Maps, or any of Google's other apps and services. You might question why an operating system would keep Google out entirely when so many people rely on its services. Well, this is all part of the project's efforts to provide the most strong privacy and security possible to its customers; bringing Google and its snooping eyes into the mix would make it impossible. In essence, if you don't use Google, you won't be tracked, which means you'll have better privacy and security.
Apple's new on device scanning is a great reason to switch to a private mobile OS. Apple's NeuralHash works by transforming images on a user's iPhone or Mac into a unique string of letters and numbers known as a hash, which will be available in iOS 15 and macOS Monterey in the next month or two. Any time you make a minor alteration to an image, the hash is changed, which can prevent matching. According to Apple, NeuralHash aims to ensure that images that are identical and aesthetically similar — such as cropped or manipulated photographs — produce the same hash.
//CORRECTIONS:
A commenter noted that starting with iOS 14, Apple does support MAC address randomization when scanning for networks. It still uses your devices WiFi MAC address when the connection is established, but they do add a level of privacy when scanning for networks.
