This week, Hussein and Phoebe are joined by tech writer John Herrman to discuss his recent article in NY Magazine's Intelligencer about the 'Pussy in bio' bots. We all know them, we've all seen them. John takes us through the history of spam bots, and helps us place this most modern expression of them into context of online scams.
