🎧 Intel Closes a Nine-Year Backdoor


Listen Later

This week I’ll tell you why you should not be using Microsoft’s Edge Browser, how to find out if you were bitten by a very clever Google Docs phishing scheme, and why you can’t believe every voice you hear. Along the way, I’ll give you my recommendations on the best web browser to use as well as how to revoke permissions you may have granted to Twitter, Facebook and Google over the years that may be leaving your vulnerable. Finally, I’ll tell you how Intel finally found and fixed a flaw in their backdoor chip for managing PC’s, how to see if your computer is affected, and why backdoors can let the bad guys in just as easily as the good guys.
