Can you imagine a world where the Israel-Hamas conflict explosively intersects with cyber warfare? Welcome to a scintillating episode of TechTime with Nathan Mumm, where we navigate the complex terrain of geopolitics colliding with technology. DDoS attacks against Israeli platforms aren't just disrupting communications, they're spreading pro-Palestine messages, blurring the line between activism and cyber warfare. But that's not all. We also tackle the curious case of a chatbot that may have incited a plan to attack the Queen of England!
Who said technology couldn't make sports more accessible? Prepare to have your minds blown as we discuss the revolutionary use of specially designed helmets by the Gallaudet University football team to aid deaf and hard-of-hearing players. And speaking of revolution, we take a trip down memory lane to explore the enduring impact of Steve Jobs' absence and subsequent return to Apple. We also raise a toast to Ada Lovelace Day, a celebration of the phenomenal achievements of women in STEM.
Finally, let's take a futuristic dive into the world of eyewear with the LUCYD smart eyeglasses. Our expert Gwen Way, will make you rethink everything you know about glasses. On a lighter note, our whiskey connoisseur Mark Gregoire introduces us to the tantalizing world of Wild Turkey Master's Keep Unforgotten, a sublime blend of straight bourbon and rye whiskies. So, buckle up and join us for an hour of exhilarating technology insights, controversies, and innovations.
Episode 174: Starts at 1:29
This week on TechTime with Nathan Mumm®, Activist Hackers Are Racing Into the Israel-Hamas War—for Both Sides, Amazon is hosting Prime Day 2.0, "Prime Big Deal Days," but Nathan has found better deals on his Nugget of the Week. Finally, we finish the MGM Resorts sage from their ransomware attack that led to a $100 million loss and data theft, and they cared little about your data as they decided not to pay the ransom. We also look at how Steve Jobs's departure from Apple might be what now makes this company so successful—all this plus so much more.
