This week, we saddle up for another bumpy ride through the dystopian tech clown show. We kick off with the surveillance state's greatest hits: ICE raids sweeping L.A., a website literally called FuckLAPD.com that lets you ID cops by their mug shots, and a Norwegian tourist who learned the hard way that having a JD Vance chipmunk meme on your phone is now grounds for deportation. Pro tip: if you're traveling to the U.S., you might want to wrap your phone in lead and bury it in a cornfield.In the news, Big Balls has apparently rolled his way from Elon's Department of Government Efficiency to the Social Security Administration—because nothing says “government modernization” like a 19-year-old tech bro with a meme nickname. Meanwhile, Tesla robotaxis are hitting the roads (and maybe a few pedestrians) with human babysitters in tow, Waymo and Uber are turning Atlanta into Blade Runner Lite, and Texas wants a permit for your self-driving car. Over in AI hell, judges can't agree if training your chatbot on stolen books is fair use or just digital asbestos. YouTube, never one to miss a race to the bottom, is rolling out an AI Slop button so you can crank up the crap to 11.In Media Candy, Russell Crowe is beefing up his IMDb with Highlander, Henry Cavill is along for the ride, and Anthony Bourdain Day is apparently a thing (even though he'd have rolled his eyes at it). We also dig into everything from Minecraft movies to the sad demise of Blue Microphones at the hands of Logitech. Plus, Dave Bittner drops by to commiserate about malware, retro gaming handhelds, and why some Star Wars maps are basically porn for nerds. And yes—Windows is finally killing the Blue Screen of Death, proving even Microsoft can eventually learn to read the room.DeleteMe - Head over to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use the code "GOG" for 20% off.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

The podcast discusses the evolving landscape of cybersecurity for small and mid-market businesses, emphasizing the dual threats posed by advanced artificial intelligence tools and a resurgence of ransomware attacks. As cybercriminals leverage AI for sophisticated phishing and impersonation tactics, traditional security measures are becoming obsolete. Organizations are urged to adopt enterprise-grade solutions, such as unified security platforms and zero-trust frameworks, to protect their operations. The introduction of secure browser technologies is highlighted as a critical step in enhancing defenses against the 95% of security incidents linked to browser vulnerabilities.A significant decline in the number of active Windows PCs, with 400 million devices disappearing in three years, indicates a shift in consumer behavior towards mobile devices and tablets. This trend reflects a broader change in endpoint strategy, as the traditional perimeter dissolves and the focus shifts from device management to user and data control across platforms. The implications of the upcoming end of support for Windows 10 in October 2025 may further influence this trend, as users may opt not to invest in new devices.The podcast also covers Microsoft's new security measures aimed at preventing incidents similar to the CrowdStrike meltdown, which caused extensive damages. The company plans to move third-party security drivers out of the Windows kernel to enhance reliability and reduce risks. Additionally, Microsoft is offering extended security updates for Windows 10 users, allowing them to continue receiving support even after the end of support date. This initiative reflects a commitment to improving system stability and addressing vulnerabilities.Finally, the discussion touches on the broader implications of AI in various sectors, including its impact on the workforce and democratic processes. The podcast highlights concerns about AI's role in elections and education, as well as the ethical challenges arising from its use. The conversation emphasizes the need for businesses to manage the complexities of AI, including compliance and creativity loss, while pushing back against inflated vendor claims. This approach will help build trust and ensure that organizations can navigate the rapidly changing digital landscape effectively. Three things to know today 00:00 400 Million Missing PCs Mark the End of the Endpoint Era—MSPs Must Evolve or Fade06:04 From Kernel Changes to Cyber Insurance: Why Structural Resilience Now Defines MSP Value10:23 From Productivity to Manipulation: The Expanding and Uneven Impact of AI Across Sectors This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by: https://timezest.com/mspradio/https://www.huntress.com/mspradio/  All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?
