This week Steve and Leo discuss March's long-awaited patch Tuesday, the release deployment of Google Invisible reCaptcha, getting more than you bargained for with a new Android smartphone, the new "Find my iPhone" phishing campaign, the failure of Wi-Fi anti-tracking, a nasty and significant new hard-to-fix web server 0-day vulnerability, what if your ISP decides to unilaterally block a service you depend upon? Shining some much-needed light onto a poorly conceived end-to-end messaging application, two quick takes, a bit of errata and miscellany... and a look into what Wikileaks revealed about the CIA's data collection capabilities and practices.
We invite you to read our show notes.
