On this episode we discussed Bots. A bot also called an internet bot is a computer program that operates as an agent for a user or other program to simulate a human activity. Bots are normally used to automate certain tasks, meaning they can run without specific instructions from humans. It's a software application that runs automated tasks over the Internet. Typically, bots perform tasks that are simple and repetitive, much faster than a person. We discussed how this is a million dollar industry, how bitcoin mining works, HBO's documentary Fake Famous, we highlighted the lasted Facebook data breach and why its important to stay safe from online threats in the digital age and much more.
