This week on Hacker And The Fed, up to 10 years of your location data may have been exposed if you’ve driven vehicles from a certain manufacturer, stolen private keys may lead to insecure boot ups of your computer, Congress gets another notification of a US government breach, and we answer more listener questions about failed hacks and intentional exploits. And we talk about D. B. Cooper!
