Manage episode 430086386 series 2058304
In episode 339, hosts Tom Eston and Scott Wright discuss the massive AT&T data breach affecting 110 million customers, which is larger than a previous breach from March affecting 73 million customers. They also talk about the importance of reading privacy policies on sites like Facebook and Instagram, as these platforms may use user data to train AI models. Additionally, they explore the implications of third-party cloud platform breaches, specifically mentioning the Snowflake incident. The ‘Aware Much?’ segment highlights evolving privacy policies, with Meta’s revised policy allowing user data for AI development being under scrutiny. The episode concludes with a mention of the importance of GDPR and other data protection regulations and a nod to their Patreon supporters.
