This week, Nate and Francis are joined by sci-fi author and technologist Cory Doctorow (@doctorow) to discuss his new book ATTACK SURFACE. Are you getting spied on by your smart washing machine? Is your out-of-date WiFi printer going to hack the Gibson? Learn more about it on this episode.
You can pre-order ATTACK SURFACE from your local bookstore here: https://www.indiebound.org/book/9781250757531
This week’s bonus features a solemn topic: Steve Bannon got arrested by the law enforcement arm of the US Postal Service. How is that even possible? To discuss the ill-understood aspect of the law, we brought on labor lawyer and Coast Guard vet Carey Shockey (@shocks) to discuss. He also talks a lot about Boston sports, Curt Schilling's video game company that bankrupted Rhode Island, and much more. Get it on Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/41852582
