Google is helping Zuke to remember his goals, grey hat hackers are having a field day with their new business venture, white hat hackers are absolute studs, and Apple plugins support terrorism (sorta).

It's always great when the FBI itself starts pirating tools to infringe on our privacy, right? Could they not just fork out the extra $100 or watch a YouTube video on how to do it instead?

We're so punny.

Zohner is rested up from Salt Lake Comic Con FanX 2016 and we're on track to get the FBI called down on us for calling one of Trump's numbers. So, you know, just another episode. Apple releases some things, confuses customers with choice, and then get's so blinged out it makes your eyes (and soul) hurt. The UK gets Android Pay just in time for the EU to complain about it. And Google might be looking at killing the Chrome brand for good.

• How the FBI might be bypassing Apple encryption

• And some Apple things need to get cleaned up
• While other Apple things need to never exist.

• Dyson's new car might really . . . suck!
• Twitter chatbot grows up (into racist, sexist, Nazi) so fast!

Collin is dead this week after saying the wrong thing at a Trump rally.

Apple is in hot water (again) with the courts, but not with ransomware. The FBI might not have a leg to stand on, and the conversation takes a sharp turn to the side once we start talking about school shootings. Trigger warning: we go off the rails pretty heavily this episode.

• Snapchat smart glasses: Yes, this will end well
• Apple ordered to pay $450M for ebook fixing scandal
