Data protection is the new civil rights battleground. Lucas and Luna navigate the shifting landscape of digital privacy — from GDPR enforcement actions and ePrivacy Regulation updates to the practical implications of state-level US privacy laws like the CPRA and Virginia's VCDPA. Each episode centers on a single regulatory decision, corporate data breach, or emerging technology (think federated learning, differential privacy, or zero-knowledge proofs) and strips away the marketing hype to reveal what it actually means for businesses and individuals. Lucas, a journalist covering tech policy, presses for the operational details: How does a multinational adjust its data inventory when Schrems III invalidates a new data transfer mechanism? Luna, a former privacy counsel turned advocate, pushes back on the ethics: When does 'compliance' become a fig leaf for surveillance capitalism? Regular segments include 'Redacted' (analyzing a leaked internal memo on data minimization) and 'The Consent

How Your Digital Shadow Is Tracked By Invisible Pixels
Sep 29, 20268 minS5
We look at the specific mechanics of tracking pixels and web beacons that follow users across unrelated websites, creating detailed behavioral profiles without direct interaction. Using a recent regulatory fine against a major ad-tech firm for undisclosed pixel data collection as our anchor, we explain how these invisible 1x1 images function, why they are difficult to block, and what new privacy laws mean for your digital footprint. This episode breaks down the technical reality of server-side versus client-side tracking and offers practical steps for listeners to limit their exposure. #DigitalPrivacy #TrackingPixels #WebBeacons #AdTech #DataProtection #GDPRCompliance #OnlineTracking #ConsumerRights #CyberSecurity #InternetSafety #BigData #SurveillanceCapitalism #TechPolicy #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #LucasAndLuna #PrivacyMatters #DigitalFootprint Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

Every question we get asked before someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
How do agency tiers work?
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?
That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
