From Synths to Spying: Benn Jordan’s Tech Transformation

Benn’s shift from music to cybersecurity highlights growing concerns over tech privacy in the digital age.

Benn Jordan may have started as a prominent music gear reviewer, but he now focuses on uncovering tech vulnerabilities. He has exposed security flaws in surveillance devices and confirmed conspiracy theories about data collection.


While his channel occasionally delves into music topics like poisoning AI systems or storing data covertly, most of his recent content tackles cybersecurity issues. Benn's recent investigations include hacking Ring cameras and questioning the intentions behind smart home gadgets that seem to spy on users.


When not exposing tech secrets, Benn enjoys using Strudel.cc, a web-based programming language for music creation, as his 'happy place'. His original Pebble Watch, which didn’t harvest data or track anything beyond basic functions, remains his favorite gadget. He has also created content that delves into West African culture and oppression through a unique scam video.


Benn’s current obsession with spectrometry and interferometry involves picking up and demodulating sounds using subtle changes in light waves. His daily habit of going without his phone highlights his commitment to privacy, while his love for high-end tripods speaks to his precision in tech reviews.
