This is episode three of my weekly show, where myself (helloitsmia.tech) and Ethan Rush each choose a few of our favorite tech-related headlines from the week. We talk through what actually happened, what may be misleading or missing from the framing, and whether each headline is mostly clickbait… or something worth paying attention to.

We do not tell each other which headlines we have chosen ahead of time.

This week we look at how one Texas town’s Flock data became searchable by hundreds of outside agencies; a dark-web service claiming to sell more than 153 million driver’s-license records in a suspected breach linked to IDScan.net; a Taiwanese court case involving a robot vacuum and a secretly recorded affair; and California’s pending open-source carve-out from its Digital Age Assurance Act.

If you have a headline you’d like us to talk about, please send it my way. We’d love suggestions for future episodes.
