Learners Assembly Talk
Title: Protect Your Data and Shield Your Finances: Zcash and the Privacy Toolkit
Speaker: Andre Froes (Ipê Head of Community)

Your accountant may need to see your finances. The rest of the internet does not. Your private conversations deserve boundaries too. Having nothing to hide doesn’t make your life public property.

We will explore how to protect your accounts from unauthorized access, keep personal communications private and reduce how much your browsing reveals about you. We’ll focus on practical changes you can make without rebuilding your entire digital life.

We’ll bring the same question to your money: who should be able to see where it comes from and where it goes? Through an introduction to Zcash and shielded payments, we’ll explore financial privacy and the risks of making your transaction history an open book.

The idea is simple: put on the seatbelt before you need it. No technical background is required, and we’ll cover both beginner- and intermediate-level techniques.
