Show Notes

In this week's episode, we discuss T-Mobile and how they've been compromised 6 times in the past 4 years, and maybe some root causes on why this keeps happening to them.  We have no inside knowledge, this is pure speculation.  We perform some additional speculation on why China wants the PII of the complete American population, and then, just so we have some real news... we discuss a new method of monitizing malware at the end!
