He is the author of 13 books–including: Data and Goliath: The Hidden Battles to Collect Your Data and Control Your World and Click Here to Kill Everybody: Security and Survival in a Hyper-connected World.
This episode is a reairing of another we broadcast long ago which we thought was especially relevant and worth reiterating today.
