DISCLAIMER

Let me be real with you before we go any further.

I wrote this book because I believe every American deserves to understand what is happening to their personal information and what they are able to do about it. I have spent decades as a trial lawyer protecting consumers, and I have seen firsthand how much damage happens when people do not know their rights. This book is my way of putting that knowledge into your hands.

Here is what you need to understand.

This book is for education and general information only. Full stop. I am a lawyer, and a pretty good one, and I am proud of the work my firm does every single day. I am not, as of this moment, your lawyer. Nothing in this book, on any associated website, podcast, social media post, digital resource, Web3 platform, spatial computing environment, or any other format connected to this work creates an attorney-client relationship between you and me, between you and my law firm, or between you and anyone on my team. You do not become my client by reading this book, attending an event, sending a message, or interacting with me or my team online or in person.

This is not legal advice. This is not financial advice. This is not medical advice. This is not tax advice. And this is not professional counsel tailored to your specific situation. Every person’s circumstances are different, and privacy law is changing fast at the federal, state, and international levels. What applies in California might not apply in Texas. What is accurate the day this book goes to print might shift by the time you read it.

Here is what I need you to do. Before you make any legal, financial, or personal decision based on something you read in these pages, talk to a qualified professional who knows your situation. Hire a lawyer in your jurisdiction. Consult a financial advisor. Speak with a cybersecurity specialist. Get advice that is specific to you.

The information in this book is provided “as is,” without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. I have done my best to make sure everything here is accurate and current as of the date of publication, and my team and I put in serious work to get the details right. Laws change. Regulations shift. Technology evolves. Court decisions get reversed. I do not guarantee that every piece of information will remain accurate after publication, and I am not responsible for errors, omissions, or outcomes that result from actions you take based on this material.

By continuing to read this book, by using any associated resources, by interacting with me or my team through any platform or medium—including websites, social media, podcasts, live events, digital communities, Web3 environments, virtual worlds, blockchain applications, AI-powered tools, or any technology that has not been invented yet—you acknowledge and accept full responsibility for your own decisions and actions. That includes the risks associated with rapidly evolving technology, artificial intelligence, smart contracts, virtual assets, digital privacy tools, and global regulatory changes that no single book is able to predict.

If you are not comfortable with any of that, put this book down. Seriously. No hard feelings.

If you are still here, good. That tells me you are ready to learn, ready to take action, and ready to protect yourself and the people you love.

Let’s go.
