  • Summary

  • Have you ever been frustrated by technology? Has a family member or friend ever been the victim of a scam? Has your IT department ever made you think, "Eff it," in frustration as you hang up the phone and scream? We are a podcast exploring the realms of cybersecurity and our daily human interactions with digital innovations. We are three amateurs when it comes to podcasting, but we are professionals in the technology and cybersecurity space. Join us every two weeks, as we share our views on news stories and technological developments with a focus on cybersecurity - and most importantly, how we expect them to affect everyday users of technology from all walks of life (not just nerds).
