2018-
It's undeniable that YouTube beauty videos are binge-able, and New York City-based artist Addie Wagenknecht is saving our asses by incorporating some cybersecurity tips into her product reviews. Thanks to a grant from tech nonprofit Mozilla, Wagenknecht is offering some useful tips on how to keep nosy exes from accessing your information, while delivering it in a deadpan and hysterical fashion.
Other topics she covers include threat modelling while applying concealer, better security while chatting about a moisturising mask, and why you should give out a fake number at the club (while reviewing dry shampoo), and they will most likely all make you cry from laughing nonstop. We advise you watch each one on YouTube, so you can keep your identity safe while getting in a good chuckle.
