COVID Sniffing Dogs, New Apple Features, Cryptocurrency, And You

In our first episode of 2022, Steve and Devon sit down to chat about some of the recent changes and happenings in the consumer privacy and technology space. No guest this episode, just two friends talking about Apple's new privacy features, what Google is up to these days, and even digging into some of those hot topics like crytpo and NFTs. We also chat briefly about how disease sniffing dogs are a thing, but we aren't exactly sure how. As always we encourage everyone and anyone to drop us a line and ask us some questions. We look forward to having new guests on this year and hopefully more episodes too! Tune in and enjoy...

Advertising Fraud, Connected TV, PawPaw Fruit, And You

In Episode 13 Steve and Devon sit down with Marc Goldberg and Shailin Dhar of Method Media Intelligence who are fighting the good fight against advertising fraud. Ad fraud may not be something that we think about or even realize is happening, but it's an almost $20 billion dollar business. As consumers and general internet users, we see the impact of ad fraud in the cost of the content we access, the rise of paywalls around previously free content, and the decline of local news and other crucial necessities. Join us as we dig into a recent botnet scam impacting connected TV devices and explore the journey an ad takes goes on to get in front of your face. We also play our favorite game of "how do you protect your privacy" and find out my 7-month year old's favorite food. Spoiler alert - it's in the title of this episode. Thanks for listening!

Data Breaches, Device Addiction, Skynet, and You

We're back with our first episode of 2021 after taking a brief hiatus due to the birth of Devon's baby boy Cosmo. For this episode, we brought our good friend Carlos Calderon, Head of Solutions at MetaRouter, and long-time builder of MADtech solutions onto the show. He recently took on a new role at a technology company but has spent a ton of time on the other side of the fence working for some of the biggest brands on earth. We went off the rails a bit in this discussion talking about everything from the ethical responsibility of consumer technology, device addiction, the latest data breaches, cognitive dissonance, and human psychology. We even dipped our toes into the facial recognition waters as well.  We hope you enjoy the episode!
