You're giving away all your data for that free email accountI don’t trust Big Tech and you shouldn’t, either. You’ve heard me say for years that free email services like Gmail or Yahoo aren’t really free. There’s a big price to pay — your privacy. These free email sites scan, analyze and save details of every email you send and receive, giving Big Tech a very intimate and detailed profile of you so they can easily sell your data to the highest bidder. That’s why I use StartMail. With StartMail, I can send encrypted emails with one click, even if the recipient doesn’t use encryption. And StartMail never scans or analyzes your emails. Best of all, when you delete an email, it’s gone — forever. Don’t trust Big Tech with your data and privacy. Go to StartMail.com/Kim today for a seven-day free trial and 50% off your first year. → |
AND FINALLY ...No one wants to get stabbed. But in the unfortunate case it might happen, wouldn't you want a cool device that can stop blood loss? Now you can. It's all thanks to a new invention from Joseph Bentley, a student at Loughborough University. He developed a gadget called REACT, which applies pressure on areas that are usually hard to treat, like the groin, abdomen and armpit. He says it's a game-changer for first responders that could save hundreds of lives a year. Check it out and see for yourself. |
