Africa Business Radio — Nations: Here we looked at the German Armed forces cyber unit hacking into the Afghan mobile operator in order to locate the Indian senior technical reporter’s location in an attempt to rescue her from a kidnap in Afghanistan. The question is how do we determine what is right in the cyber world? Would it be the motives or just the principles behind hacking without Authorization? Would it have been right for the German army to hack into mobile operator in Afghan whereas it would have been wrong if the German armed forces hacked into a united states mobile operator? 2. Big Impact: On big impact, we looked at the issues of drone laws. In Q2, 2016, A gentleman was arrested for flying drones across the united states embassy in Sandton, persistently for 2 days, with states in the US – North Dakota passing into law the drone laws which allow for surveillance, how do we make sure that Africa is prepared for the influx of these drones by combating vulnerabilities from both hardware and software as well for these drones vis-à-vis the legal issues concerning who can own a drone and what he can do with the drone 3. Down to Home -- Trending Now!!!: This section looked at the closure of LinkedIn on Monday morning in Russia over a violation by LinkedIn to place the servers that host Russian people’s data in Russia. How this will affect LinkedIn operation in Africa with new acts like POPI was also discussed. Perhaps, LinkedIn needs to begin to look into POPI in South Africa so as to avoid these type of shutdown in Africa as well. 4. On a lighter note: This section looked at Facebook and the bug that created a weird glitch on Friday which converted most Facebook accounts to a memorialized account. So in case you are an active user of Facebook, you may want to check if you are still alive! although Facebook has resolved this bug, you may want to double check if you are alive on Facebook18 episodes
