Hey everyone! Welcome to the Privacy and Security related news for the week ending October 6th 2020

From the Wild and crazy guy John McAfee (We’ve met him. We can attest to the “crazy” parts) all the way to Mars, we have you covered with the latest and truly the greatest news.

We know you are going to love this week’s privacy and security news story round up and perhaps even forgive us for the last socially very distanced article.

Stay on point, on guard and informed.

Hey everyone!  Welcome to the Privacy and Security related news for the week ending September 29 2020 

We’ve certainly got a roundup of WILD stories for you this week, from the FBI playing Roxy Music’s Manifesto, to Stravas paid for contribution of your data to the development of city centers it’s all here.

Fed up with your Android location based unlock? We can help you fix it for a while. We cover the curious outage of a large swathe of the US’s 911 emergency services (the equivalent of 999 in the UK… or is it “0118 999 881 999 119 725 3”?) and even a coffee maker hit with ransomware.

We hope you enjoy this week’s privacy and security related news stories , and that they help you stay on point, on guard and informed.

This week we start underground in a Tesla and end with a boat crash, but what you find in between those two modes of transport is crazy interesting.

We have a cautionary tale involving an Australian Prime minister, Fuzzing as a Service, a leaky elastic Microsoft Bing search server, a snowflake, a credit card, and Russia putting the clamp on secure protocols.

There’s no better way to get your Privacy and Security updates than here, so have a seat, buckle up and enjoy the journey!
