April 09Artemis Astronaut's Bad Outlooks - 2026-04-06
This episode covers several major cybersecurity and tech news stories, including a sophisticated NPM supply chain attack that compromised the widely used Axios library through advanced social engineering, and the broader implications for software security. The hosts also discuss the accidental leak of Anthropic’s Claude codebase, what it reveals about AI development practices, and the risks of misconfigurations exposing sensitive systems. Additional conversation touches on AI reliability, “vibe-coded” software, and the growing role of AI in both development and attack techniques.

April 01FCC Blocks Foreign-Made Routers – 2026-03-30
This episode covers the FCC’s move to restrict or ban certain foreign-made networking equipment—especially routers tied to Chinese manufacturers—highlighting the potential cybersecurity risks, supply chain implications, and how the rule could affect ISPs and consumers. The hosts also discuss broader concerns around hardware trust, existing infrastructure, and what qualifies as “approved” devices under FCC guidelines, along with a brief, lighter mention of a viral robot incident making the rounds online.
