At their MicrosoftEDU event, Microsoft announced the 13.5" Surface Laptop, which looks a lot like the laptop that Apple should be making. Luckily, Apple has a $250 billion pile of cash to soak up any tears they might shed. Rumor has it that Apple might announce a Siri speaker to compete with the Amazon Echo and Google Home at WWDC. Dok is a new malware that only affects Macs. Several major apps are abandoning the Apple Watch. Apple Pay might soon have a Venmo-like person-to-person payment system.

Google will change search to favor quality, reliability, and authority. But what is "quality?" Amazon Look is an Echo with a camera and sharp fashion sense. Goodbye, Net Neutrality. Twitter beats the street. Uber almost gets kicked out of the App Store and breaks the heart of Unroll Me's CEO. Wikipedia's Jimmy Wales launches WikiTribune to fight fake news and hires the best journalist in the world to help him. Alexander Hamilton in VR. AT&T is the first company to launch a fake "5G" network. Juicero's CEO had only the noblest of intentions.

This week Steve and Leo discuss how one of the NSA's Vault7 vulnerabilities has gotten loose, a clever hacker removes Microsoft deliberate (and apparently unnecessary) block on Win7/8.1 updates for newer processors, Microsoft refactors multifactor authentication, Google to add native ad-blocking to Chrome... and what exactly *are* abusive ads?, Mastercard to build a questionable fingerprint sensor into their cards, are Bose headphones spying on their listeners? 10 worrisome security holes discovered in Linksys routers, MIT cashes out half of its IPv4 space, and the return of two meaner BrickerBots. Then some Errata, a bit of Miscellany, and, time permitting, some "Closing the Loop" feedback from our podcast's terrific listeners.

We invite you to read our show notes.
