Episode description

Today on Technado, Don, Dan and Sophie are joined by a lizard (yes, really) to bring you the latest in tech news. Google is cracking down on 2FA requirements - even revoking support for certain third-party apps. In Microsoft news, the company is setting a 16-gig default for RAM for so-called "AI PCs." Finally, for fans of Linux, Ubuntu is working on installer support for NVMe-over-TCP.

 

After a quick break (and a hunt for a lizard), the team jumps into this week's security news: first up, a German court convicted a "hacker" for...warning the public about a security vulnerability. Then, Microsoft's network got pwned through a password-spraying attack. And to wrap up the show, the Technado crew breaks down "the mother of all breaches": is it as scary as it sounds?
