  • 18: Apple Can't Stop

    Once again we need to create another podcast episode dunking on Apple. I can't believe it's coming to this and I can't believe we have to do this so many times. Thanks once again for tuning in and I hope Apple v Corellium resolves soon.

    Show Notes:

    • Corellium will pay for security researchers to check Apple CSAM claims
    • Apple abandons lawsuit against Corellium and agrees settlement
    • Apple appeals against security research firm while touting researchers
    • Apple to pursue copyright claims against Corellium in appellate court
    • Apple says researchers can vet its child safety features. But it’s suing a startup that does just that.
    • Corellium Open Security Initiative

    • 16: Leaving Apple

      It's time to leave Apple. Their products look shiny and beautiful - but as of recent developments their products are also nefarious on the inside. Sadly, this seems to be the way their products are going, so I shall vote with my wallet and leave their ecosystem. I talk about where I'm going and why I'm doing it, as well as the newer news articles.

    • 15: The Worst Bank Accounts

      Today we talk about the world's worst bank accounts that I found today while researching the next best bank account. A strange thing to talk about, but I guess I am a strange person. After listening to this podcast, if you're interested in the weird bank that I mentioned, it's called Redneck Bank. They seem to be based out of Oklahoma, so go check them out.

    • 14: Imposter Syndrome

      Zaiper posted a blog post that made it to the top of Hacker News. It talks about imposter syndrome, but are they right? This episode is an opinion-based episode, so you may want to skip it if you'd rather hear me talk about the latest in tech. Or, if you like it, let me know what you think!
