Episode description

The Covid-19 pandemic has emerged as an early theme at CES 2021. From Samsung’s trio of robots aimed to improve life at home - including pouring you a glass of wine at the end of a long day - to LG’s autonomous CLOi Robot that uses ultraviolet light to kill germs in high-traffic areas. Plus, tech giants continue their crackdown on those involved in last week’s insurrection of Capitol Hill, a massive data leak exposes 400GB of information scraped from more than 214 million social media accounts, and bitcoin investors are warned they could lose all their money.
