the CIA reportedly ran a fake Star Wars fan site as part of a covert online surveillance operation. Disguised as a hub for sci-fi enthusiasts, the website was designed to attract users from various regions, particularly in the Middle East, under the pretense of discussing pop culture. While fans believed they were engaging in harmless fandom activities—sharing theories, fan fiction, and movie trivia—the site quietly collected data, monitored discussions, and attempted to identify individuals of interest. This tactic was part of a broader digital espionage strategy aimed at tracking potential threats by exploiting seemingly innocuous online communities.
Aira, the company now rebranded as FreePower, made its appearance on Season 11, Episode 4 of Shark Tank. During the episode, co-founders Eric Goodchild and Jake Slatnick presented their innovative wireless charging technology to the panel of Sharks.
Their pitch caught the attention of several investors, and after some back-and-forth negotiation, they landed a deal. Kevin O’Leary, Lori Greiner, and Robert Herjavec teamed up to offer the founders a combined investment of $500,000 in exchange for 15% of the company.
It was a big moment for Eric and Jake, who walked away from the tank with funding, strategic partners, and a lot of momentum for the future of their business.

You’re not just spending money. You’re spending time. Time never comes back once it’s gone. Every purchase takes a piece of it. Most people don’t realize how valuable that is.
They work hard to earn money and use it on things that quickly lose value. The cycle keeps repeating. They stay in the same place for years. The problem isn’t effort. It’s a missing understanding of how money works.
Rich people use money to free up their time. They invest it in ways that give them more control over their day. They focus on getting their time back.
