For our first episode in power month I'm joined by Daniel Miessler, online security expert and curator of the popular newsletter, and podcast, Unsupervised Learning. Daniel has over 20 years experience in the world of online security and technology and wrote the book The Real Internet of Things which explores the future for humanity in a connected world. We explore a range of topics including what data breaches mean for society, whether companies take security threats seriously, what happens to the data, and what an increasingly online world means for society at large. We go deep on the future of big data and the curated reality that is emerging from a tech driven world that, as Yuval Noah Harari puts it, knows us better than we know ourselves.
