For the digital privacy one, ask for a volunteer (or do you!) ahead of time and get them to do GDPR requests for apple, Google, Microsoft, Meta etc. sanitizer anything they want to hide, but do a demo of what big tech actually knows about them.

Then go though how to prevent that and have a discussion on the pros and cons of that data collection. (Eg I don't care about Google data tracking as I find the Google location history really useful)
