Okay.

Here's a word from our sponsors, PETA.

One thing that always strikes me when we talk about this stuff is how we're constantly using systems that we don't really understand and can't really see the full picture of.

Algorithms decide what we consume.

Platforms decide what gets amplified.

And somewhere in the background, there are countless companies tracking us, watching our behaviors, analyzing our moods and interests.

And of course, random third parties collecting data on what we click, what we share, and what we're talking about.

And that's why I think something like Surfshark VPN is just good digital hygiene.

Whether you're digging through the weirdest corners of the internet like myself, or you're doing something as simple as using Wi-Fi in an airport, Surfshark encrypts your internet activity and keeps your private browsing private.

If you spend as much time online as I do, you know that that's pretty important.

I also love that it helps you get around geo-restrictions.

Now, I can't tell you exactly what you might be doing as you get around geo-restrictions, but more and more, it's an important thing to be able to do.

They're good for whether you're traveling or simply because someone has decided that the internet shouldn't be allowed to show you something.

Surfshark VPN works across all devices, your phone, your laptop, your tablet, basically every screen that you use to access the internet, Surfshark works perfectly on.

If you want to make your online life a little less exposed, go to surfshark.com slash panic, P-A-N-I-C, and use the code word panic, P-A-N-I-C.

You'll get four extra months of Surfshark VPN.

Again, that's surfshark.com slash panic.

It also comes with a risk-free 30-day money-back guarantee.

And the link and the code are in our show description.

Now, let's get back to the story because, as we all know, there's so much more weird stuff to talk about online.
