        • The Technology podcast, podcast 361: A very interesting security discussion
          Scott Schober is on Clubhouse, and he invited me over to his club which talks about cyber security topics. Here is a link to his Cyber Security club where members can join the conversation. The discussion started with whether we've gotten the vaccine or not, whether restaurants and other places are collecting that data let alone securely, and more. I decided to join the stage and while I applauded the conversation about covid-19 vaccines, what aout other problems we're still dealing with lik the open databases problem? Take a listen to this, and let's discuss whether I'm right, or whether we need to be concerned about this. I'll have more talks soon.
