GPS hacking, Apple's Express Transit comes to London & Christmas gifts [S17E07]

Listen Later

This week the team discuss:

  • A complex suspected GPS hack in the port of Shanghai that has experts and researchers baffled. Has someone developed the ability to manipulate GPS signals and, if so, who?
  • Apple's Express Transit mode has arrived in London allowing travellers to pay for Transport for London tubes, busses and trains without unlocking your phone. This is doubly useful when paired with a smart payment option like Citymapper Pass.
  • Christmas gift ideas with a techy (ish) slant, including for the younger people in your life (like Rafe).

    • Let us know your thoughts on these subjects or anything you'd like to hear covered in future via the website or Twitter.
