OK, we’re back to writing UNSECURITY Podcast show notes. We took eight weeks off from writing show notes because it was a little tedious and we weren’t sure if anyone cared that much anyway. Turns out people care about the show notes, read them, and they want them back!
To make things less tedious and more valuable, we’ll only tell you the topics we plan to talk about. We won’t do the verbatim stuff anymore. If you like the new show notes, let us know (unsecurity@protonmail.com). If you’d like something different, let us know that too!
On to the notes for episode 119 of the UNSECURITY Podcast…
