Listen Later

Erik and Bob take your questions.  We offer advice on how to secure your Ring doorbell cameras after a series of news stories about some of the less secure cameras being taken over by hackers in recent weeks.  Lexis-Nexis database exposes names of risky potential bank customers.  Mozilla Foundation and others file an appeal to restore "Net Neutrality" in court. A listener asks if a new laptop with an Intel i5 processor, 8th generation quad with a 1TB hard drive is a good deal.  Also he wonders about the security risk of allowing a their party to transfer information from his old computer to the new one.  A user with an old Lenovo laptop wonders why his WiFi keeps dropping out, but the problem happens with all his devices.  A caller has a Samsung Galaxy S2 tablet sees the message "Samsung Plus Has stopped" plus he sees advertising popups from a British newspaper app.  A user with an old Dell desktop running Windows 7 wonders if he should replace it.
