CDT Tech Talks

Election Hacking, Everyday VPNs –– Talking Tech w/ Joe Hall & Sunday Yokubaitis


Listen Later

Today we talk about the fact and fiction of Russia’s hacking the 2016 US election. What do we know and what can be done to make our elections more cyber secure in the future?
And we also talk about taking control of your own cyber security, specifically about VPNs. Sales of VPNs in the US have skyrocketed since the election as more citizens worry about their personal information being compromised. Are VPNs still only for paranoid techies or should we all be using one?
