Tech News and Commentary

Dave and the team discuss bad guys and iPhones, cable and satellite losing subscribers, and more.

Joe in Durham, North Carolina listens on NewsRadio 680 WPTF and called in to warn other listeners: “I just wanted to alert you so you can notify your listeners that I’ve been getting junk e-mail that claims it’s from the US Census Bureau. And I know the Census Bureau doesn’t send you emails asking you to complete a survey. I hav en’t responded because I believe that this would just be to my detriment and anyone’s detriment who responds. SO I just wanted to warn your listeners to beware.”

Thank you, Harry!

If you get this message, the Census Bureau recommends the following:

• Do not reply, do not click on any links, and do not open any attachments

• Forward the e-mail or website URL to the Census Bureau at [email protected]

• Delete the message.
